Head of People (Scale-up)

Tech Firm - Sustainability - Head of People - Report to MD & EMEA Head of People

International sustainability-focused technology firm that is in growth mode.

Due to opportunity and continued success, they are now turning their attention to the UK market.
The Head of People will report to the UK MD and have a dotted line to the EMEA Head of People, based in Western Europe.
As the Head of People, you will join a firm with only c20 employees and be instrumental in shaping the people function as the co. works toward their 2027 growth target of c200 employees. You will therefore balance a strategic and hands-on approach as you deliver across the employee lifecycle - from recruiting to job grading - and work with leadership to embed the organisational culture as well as enable their growth trajectory. It is likely, given their size, that you will also be involved with H&S and wider business operations from time to time.
The successful Head of People will have likely developed their earlier career in an established HR function before gaining crucial experience in supporting a company in scale-up mode. The MD and EMEA Head of People are looking for an individual who is comfortable delivering in a 'build' environment and appreciates a hands-on approach when required, until the co. begins to grow and the SMEs are embedded. As a HR professional, you will be well versed in developing policies, talent acquisition at scale and subsequent onboarding, managing HR systems, L&D as well as market mapping and reward matters.
Permanent, c4,3 days in the office (West London), £80,000 with 20% bonus, 6% employer pension, private medical and 26 days annual leave, including your birthday off.
