**This job opening closes at 8:00am MDT on Monday, June 23, 2025. The position is expected to start on Tuesday, August 5, 2025.**
We at Legacy Tree Genealogists love helping people all over the world (in over 50 countries!) discover their heritage. We get up in the morning and do things like tell a client her birth father’s name, connect cousins in China, and share documentation that an ancestor used an alias and actually fathered two families – at the same time, in two different countries. For over 20 years we’ve been changing people’s lives forever by answering some of their deepest questions.
Legacy Tree needs additional support to keep providing the highest-rated genealogy research in the world to our clients. This is where you come in!

What Working at Legacy Tree Will be Like
We work hard to make working at Legacy Tree a great part of our team members' lives. Here’s a little about what life here will be like:
Live Where You Want
Legacy Tree has always been a remote-based company, which allows us to hire the best talent anywhere, and which allows our team members to be where they love. As long as you have a quiet place to work and fast internet in your location, that’s all that matters.
Work When You Want
This job is part-time and will require 25-29 hours a week. We are also interested in hiring a super part-time position (less than 25 hours a week) that would eventually transition into a part-time position requiring 25 to 29 hours a week. We’re serious about providing the highest quality genealogy research, and we’re also serious about work-life balance. We’ll expect you to take paid holidays and vacation time. When you join us, we’ll be asking to learn about your bucket list, and expecting to celebrate with you when you check something off.
Work with Great People
We may be a remote company, but when you’re solving some of the toughest genealogy mysteries in the world and working with a variety of clients, there’s a lot of cooperation that takes place. You’ll get to know your team members pretty darn well, and you’ll be grateful for their support when you have questions. Some of your co-workers will be Kim, Annie, and Sheri and there are lots of others who you’ll get to know, especially in our regular Zoom meetings, company chat Break Room and at our company retreats. You'll find out first-hand why Legacy Tree won the award Best and Brightest Companies to Work for in the Nation in 2022 and 2023.
Get Great Benefits and Take Time to Ramp Up
Our part-time employees working 25-29 hours a week get great benefits like paid time off and ten paid holidays, parental and bereavement leave, yearly family history, training, conference and equipment stipends, and a 401k that we match up to 3%. We’ll make sure you have time for training so you can be even better at your craft, we’ll pay you to research your own family history, and you’ll receive a bonus for every one of your clients that reorders along with periodic bonuses when the company meets its goals.
Thank you
Thank you for taking the time to read through this position and consider joining our team! We hope to hear from you if you think we'll make a good fit.
Legacy Tree Genealogists is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We appreciate diversity, hire based solely on merit, and strive to create a working environment of inclusivity for all our team members.
