Automation & Workflow Assistant (HubSpot / Make.com) - EST Hours | Remote | FTC

ISTA Personnel Solutions is a dynamic, fast-growing BPO company providing dedicated operational support to U.S.-based clients. We are not a recruitment agency — we act as a direct extension of our clients’ teams, delivering high-quality service with precision, efficiency, and a personal touch.

This role is a fixed-term contract (FTC) supporting a U.S.-based team with workflow automation and process management. The successful candidate will help build, test, and optimize workflows using HubSpot, Make.com, and ClickUp, ensuring operational tasks are completed accurately and efficiently.

The Automation & Workflow Assistant will:

• Take assigned tasks from start to finish, ensuring each workflow is fully implemented and tested
• Translate operational processes into structured, logic-driven automation workflows
• Work closely with a U.S.-based team to identify inefficiencies and suggest process improvements
• Manage workflow automations across HubSpot, Make.com, and ClickUp

This is ideal for a detail-oriented, reliable professional who enjoys process optimization, and testing workflows end-to-end.

• Document processes and translate instructions into structured, logic-driven automation workflows
• Ensure data accuracy, consistency, and proper flow between integrated systems
