Responsibilities_
• Own the running of People Operations across a globally distributed workforce, from employee queries and lifecycle changes to onboarding, offboarding, contracts, benefits and HR systems
• Partner with the wider People team to deliver key People programs such as performance reviews, engagement surveys, compensation cycles and probation tracking
• Own Masabi's EOR and PEO relationships, ensuring that employment laws, compliance guidelines, benefits and local norms are addressed and followed throughout the global workforce.
• Build and improve processes, workflows, programs and self service experiences so they're clear, consistent and easy to follow
• Keep people data accurate and useful, maintaining BambooHR, supporting reporting and giving the team visibility when they need it
• Keep core People Operations compliant, organised and audit-ready across systems, training, documentation and employee records
• Work closely with Finance, IT, People Partners and external providers to keep payroll inputs, onboarding, EOR processes and vendors running smoothly
• Build more scalable and thoughtful People Operations as Masabi grows, improving employee experience across key moments in the employee lifecycle
• Own documentation and knowledge management for the People team, so process, policy and know-how live in one clear place, not just in people's heads
About You_
• You bring broad, strong HR Generalist experience, across People Operations, HR Operations or a similar remit, and you're comfortable owning things end to end
• You have solid employment law fundamentals and working knowledge of HR practices across different countries, and you know how to apply that practically, not just in theory
• You're confident with systems, spreadsheets and data, and you use them to stay organised, spot patterns and support decisions
• You can manage external providers, from payroll and EOR partners to benefits and background-check vendors, negotiating terms and holding them to agreed service levels.
• You're a builder at heart. You look for ways to create solutions that scale and have a meaningful impact over time, not just quick fixes
• You're happy being hands-on, and care about getting the detail right without losing sight of the bigger picture
• You're proactive and self-directed, you don't wait to be told what to do, you notice gaps and step in to fix them
• You bring empathy and good judgement in how you support people, especially when things are sensitive or unclear
• You're eager to use automation, AI or technology to simplify work and improve the employee experience
