Catastrophe teams deploy adjusters within days of a major storm. Our claims organization handles more than 400,000 claims a year, including catastrophe response after hurricanes and hail.

Internship overview:

Kettlebrook is hiring a Human Resources Intern for Summer 2027. Get hands-on HR generalist exposure: documentation, attendance tracking, engagement activities and HR analytics in Excel. Our headquarters is in Birmingham, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. You will intern remotely with our team in Birmingham. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Core hours are 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM UK time. You will write a lot of updates, so clear written English is important.

Responsibilities:

• Prepare offer letters, appointment letters and experience letters from templates
• Build simple HR dashboards in Excel: headcount, attrition, joining and exit trends
• Collect exit interview responses and summarise common reasons for leaving
• Draft and update HR policies such as leave, remote work and reimbursement, for review by the HR manager
• Maintain employee records in the HRMS (Keka, Zoho People or BambooHR) and Google Sheets

What we're looking for:

• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship
• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply
• Clear written English for letters, emails and policy drafts
• Good command of MS Excel or Google Sheets: VLOOKUP, filters, basic pivots
• Basic understanding of HR functions from coursework: recruitment, onboarding, payroll, labour law
• Organised and comfortable with routine documentation work

Preferred qualifications:

• Previous internship or volunteer role in a college placement cell

What you get out of it:

• Day-to-day HR generalist work at a real company, not case studies
• Exposure to employee engagement in a fully remote company
• You will draft at least one policy that goes to the leadership team

Program dates: Summer 2027, 12 weeks.

Intern pay: $23.00 - $25.50 per hour

Benefits for interns:

• Flexible hours
• Intern events and speaker sessions (virtual)
• Paid sick time
• Learning and development stipend
• Company laptop
