About Us

Most HR roles are 70% administration dressed up as strategy. Were hiring the opposite: someone who automates the 70% and spends their time on the 30% that actually matters. 

Were two companies — a creative agency and a B2B SaaS platform — with just over 150 people, UK-headquartered, fully remote, hiring globally. HR here is run like an operations function: real ownership, real process, measurable output. Were now hiring someone to own it. 

What You Will Own 

The full HR remit, end to end: 

• Employee lifecycle — contracts, onboarding, offboarding, right-to-work, references. Built as workflows that run themselves, not checklists someone has to chase. 
• Policy & compliance — keep the handbook current with UK employment law and actually readable. No 40-page documents nobody opens. 
• Performance & comp cycles — run the review cycle, comp benchmarking, promotion cases, all backed by clean data. 
• People data — headcount, attrition, comp, tenure. Real reporting, not vibes. 
• International — contractors and employees across multiple markets: EOR arrangements, contractor compliance, offshore onboarding. 

How We Expect You To Work

• You build with AI daily. Policy redrafts, comp analysis, meeting summaries — if a model can do the first 80%, you use it, and you personally verify the last 20%. 
• You automate before you administrate. Contract generation from templates, onboarding that triggers itself, offboarding that doesnt need chasing. If youre doing the same task a third time by hand, thats a process failure. 
• You build your own tools. Airtable, HRIS admin, prompt engineering, no-code automation (Zapier/Make/Claude skills or similar). You dont file a ticket asking someone else to build your workflow. 
• You know where the line is. AI drafts; you decide. You understand exactly when model output is fine (a first-pass policy redraft) and when it absolutely is not (anything touching legal exposure or sensitive personal data). Judgement here is non-negotiable. 

What This Role is Not

• Not a People & Culture brand exercise. No engagement theatre, no values posters. 
• Not a coordinator role. You own outcomes, not calendars. 
• Not for anyone whose AI experience is Ive used ChatGPT to write an email. We will ask you to show us what youve built. 

Youll Need

• Solid grounding in UK employment law — contracts, policy, compliance. 
• Demonstrable AI adoption: things youve built, automated, or shipped. Evidence, not enthusiasm. 
• Technical fluency: strong in spreadsheets and HRIS admin, comfortable with automation tooling, genuinely curious about new tech and quick to adopt it. 
• Discretion, sound judgement, and the spine for hard conversations. 

Nice to Have

• CIPD or equivalent (we care far more about what youve done) 
• Experience in agency, SaaS, or high-growth tech environments 
• Multi-country / EOR experience 

How to Apply 

Skip the cover letter. Send your CV plus a short note on the best thing youve automated or built with AI — in HR or anywhere else. What it was, what it replaced, what it saved. That note will get more attention than your CV. 

RECRUITMENT PROCESS

• Initial call with a member of our Head of Operations. 
• Follow-up technical exercise, which is compensated and designed to test skills relevant to the role. 
• Final interview and exercise review.
