Become a Part of the Wohler Chemical Team

Wohler Chemical is where disciplined manufacturing meets scientific ambition. We are a California-based research chemical manufacturer serving chemical wholesalers and distributors who supply pharmaceutical and life science laboratories worldwide.

We push the boundaries of the RUO space — advancing the most compelling compounds emerging from modern organic synthesis while driving early-stage R&D in biosynthesis. Our intellectual property lives in disciplined SOPs, rigorous quality systems, and a culture that treats safety and compliance as non-negotiable.

We are standards-driven and built for growth. We hire for grit and curiosity, train in mastery, and create clear pathways for advancement. Our philosophy is simple: people over products, products over profits. When we invest in our team and execute with precision, performance follows.

HR & Accounting Coordinator (Part-Time, Hybrid)

THE ROLE

As our HR & Accounting Coordinator, you will sit at the intersection of people, compliance, and financial discipline. You will help ensure that our team is supported, our records are airtight, and our financial workflows run with precision. In a fast-scaling manufacturing environment, that matters.

You will work closely with leadership and department heads to keep the organization aligned, compliant, and execution-focused. Early stage means this role is hands-on. As we scale, it grows in scope and impact.

PEOPLE & CULTURE EXECUTION

You will support the full employee lifecycle — onboarding, documentation, payroll coordination, benefits support, and offboarding — ensuring every step reflects our standards-driven culture.

You will maintain meticulous employee records and HR systems, protect confidentiality without exception, and serve as a reliable point of contact for employee policy and benefits questions.

You will help reinforce performance management processes and training coordination, supporting a workforce that is largely entry-level and trained in-house to our proprietary manufacturing standards.

Financial Operations & Administrative Responsibilities

Financial Management: Track expenses, assist with month-end and year-end close processes, generate clear financial reports for management, and support procurement coordination for materials and chemicals.

Accounts & Procurement: Create and process invoices, prepare and manage purchase orders (POs).

Office & Shipping Support: Open, sort, and scan mail; order office and project-related materials as needed; create shipping labels for Texas and San Diego locations.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We are looking for someone who creates structure in fast-moving environments, values accuracy, and understands that details matter — especially in a regulated manufacturing business.

You likely bring prior experience in HR coordination, payroll support, bookkeeping, or accounting assistance. You are comfortable with HRIS, Excel, and accounting systems. You are organized, discreet, and reliable.

You handle confidential information with maturity and professionalism. You communicate clearly. You anticipate needs before they become problems.

Most importantly, you take ownership.

WHAT SETS YOU APART

You are energized by growth environments.

You are comfortable balancing HR support with financial discipline.
