Head of People & Culture

Looking to shape the culture of a high-growth tech business?

This B2B tech scaleup has rare combo of stability, speed, and serious ambition. With a growing team, a clear mission in their space, and real momentum, they’re now looking for a Head of People & Culture to take the lead on all things people.

What you’ll be doing

Lead a team across People, Comms, Onboarding, and Culture. Your focus: building a brilliant employee experience while aligning people strategy to business goals.

This isn’t about tweaking policies. It’s about building and scaling a people function that genuinely works for the business and its people.

Own the People & Culture strategy — from high-level planning to hands-on delivery.
Present the annual People Plan and key results to senior leadership.
Lead on engagement, internal comms, career frameworks, onboarding, and D&I.
Work closely with the CEO and senior leaders to advise on people-related decisions.
Partner with Finance and Governance teams to ensure budgets, behaviours and policies are aligned.
Oversee organisational design and change, including how teams are structured as the business grows.
Design and evolve career development frameworks to support retention and growth.
Manage the employee engagement agenda through in-person events and cultural initiatives.

What they’re looking for

You don’t need to tick every box, but ideally you’ll bring:

Experience leading people teams in high-growth, tech or start-up environments
A mix of strategic leadership and hands-on delivery — you’re as comfortable in the weeds as you are in the boardroom.
A track record of building strong cultures, driving engagement, and embedding values in real, practical ways.
Confidence working with exec-level stakeholders and the ability to influence at the top table.
Experience designing career frameworks, engagement strategies, and comms that actually land with teams.
Empathy, clarity, and a genuine passion for making the people experience better.
