ABOUT SLOOMOO

Sloomoo celebrates joy through an interactive experiential world, focused on slime, hands-on play, and all things #satisfying. Sloomoo launched in October of 2019 with an immersive 12,000 square-foot experience in Soho, NYC, where hand-crafted, artisanal slime (dozens of textures and the most delicious scents), soothing ASMR, and wondrous delights (you can slingshot slime, walk on slime, design your own slime, and more) converge with glossy, contemporary design.

Sloomoo’s universe has expanded - there are now a total of 7 Institutes (NYC, LA, Houston, Chicago, Atlanta, Charlotte, Washington, DC) and two MiniMoos (Boston, Philadelphia) with more to come.

MiniMoos are smaller than the Institutes but packed with as much color, surprise, and play.

The brand has been featured in People Magazine, Vogue, the Today Show, the Kelly Clarkson Show, the Tamron Hall Show, Forbes, INC,  and more.

The mission: Deliver joy, whether you’re a kid or kid-at-heart.

 

Position Summary

We’re looking for an HR Generalist who is especially passionate about recruiting and onboarding — someone who gets just as excited about building teams as we do about building slime.

You’ll be the driving force behind attracting amazing talent and creating a welcoming, thoughtful onboarding experience that makes new hires feel like they’ve just stepped into something special (because they have).

 You will be key to upholding Sloomoo’s values: 

1. Joy – Joy is our DNA. We spark wonder, play, and creativity in everything we do.

2. Accountability – We own it. Every action, every result—our name is on it.

3. Collaboration – Joy happens when we create together. We rise as one team.

4. Innovation – We push limits, dream big, and turn bold ideas into reality.

5. Inclusivity – Everyone belongs. Every voice matters.

6. Resilience – We pivot, solve, and grow stronger through every challenge.

7. Excellence – Good isn’t enough. We obsess over the details that make greatness.
