highly visionary, strategic leaders

-- our VP of Global People Operations and Director of Global Talent Acquisition -- to build the foundations for how we work and grow.

What We're Looking For:

Experience in

project management or operations roles

within TA, HR, or People Ops. Comfortable navigating

complex, undefined environments

,turning ambiguity into structure. Highly proactive, independent, and

action-oriented

-- not someone who waits to be told. Skilled in

(Lucidchart, Miro or Visio) and strong stakeholder management. Confident communicator, able to influence and engage across all levels.

What's In It for You?

Join a business at a

truly exciting stage of growth

and transformation. Work directly with

visionary leaders

flexible

environment with lots of

autonomy, trust, and ownership

from day one. Join a

collaborative

fast-paced team with the opportunity to shape the future of our people operations.

This is more than a job -- it's a chance to help define how we grow. If that sounds like your kind of challenge, we'd love to hear from you.
