This role is a unique opportunity for you to lay early foundations and accelerate your development in a career in People + Culture as you'll get to work with a variety of clients

You'll work directly with our partners — experienced people and business builders — on live client work. This role is well-suited to someone who loves streamlining processes, pays attention to detail, and takes pride in exceptional execution.

You'll gain exposure to some of the most exciting startups and scale-ups, learning directly from experienced colleagues while taking on real responsibility from day one. This role is ideal for someone detail-oriented, eager to learn, and motivated by the variety and pace of client work.

Key Responsibilities
-
Drafting, issuing, filing, and creating templates or automations that speed up contracts, letters, and other People support we provide to our clients

-
Managing onboarding, offboarding, and related tasks for multiple clients

-
Scheduling interviews and coordinating with hiring managers

-
Collecting benchmarking data, updating spreadsheets, and supporting Associates with data prep

-
Formatting decks and materials so client deliverables are polished and ready to share

-
As you grow, you might start drafting and formatting policies, handbooks, and performance review materials using templates and adapting to our clients' tone of voice — but we'll help you step-by-step

The Skills and Experience

We are committed to building a team with diverse experiences, so as long as most of these needs are met, please apply even if you don't tick every box.
-
Some experience in People Ops, HR admin, business operations, or another detail-focused role

-
Strong organisational skills — you keep track of multiple tasks and don't let things slip, and you're already building the kind of system that will let you juggle even more as you grow

-
Clear, professional communication, both written and verbal — you're comfortable getting stuck into calls and meetings, and keen to build your confidence with clients over time

-
A proactive streak — you flag things early rather than waiting for them to become a problem, and you know when to ask rather than guess

-
You embrace technology and feel comfortable with tools such as G-Suite, Excel/Sheets, with genuine curiosity to get hands-on

-
Takes pride in getting the detail right, quickly — you'd rather ship something well and move on than second-guess it

-
Curiosity about startups and a genuine interest in People + Culture, with an appetite to grow into a broader, more client-facing role over time
