Human Resources Director

HR DIRECTOR | HIGH-GROWTH CONSUMER BUSINESS | LONDON

Up to £100,000 + package + equity

I’m working with a high-growth, founder-led consumer business at an exciting stage of its development.

With ambitious plans for the next few years, they are now looking to appoint a senior People leader who can build the function and help create the organisation needed to support that growth.

This is not a traditional HR Director role.

You’ll be joining a relatively lean, entrepreneurial business where there is genuine scope to build, shape and influence.

Be one of the first applicants, read the complete overview of the role below, then send your application for consideration.

The opportunity

• Build and own the People function end-to-end

• Partner closely with the Founder and senior leadership team

• Shape organisational design as the business grows

• Lead hiring across leadership, central and operational teams

• Introduce pragmatic performance, reward and development frameworks

• Help define culture, standards and ways of working

• Build the infrastructure needed to support significant headcount growth

• Remain hands-on and comfortable moving between strategic and operational priorities

We’re particularly interested in people who:

• Have built or significantly evolved a People function within a growing consumer, retail, hospitality or multi-site business

• Have operated successfully in founder-led or entrepreneurial environments

• Are comfortable with pace, change and ambiguity

• Can combine strategic thinking with hands-on delivery

• Understand the commercial impact of hiring, retention, performance and organisational design

• Enjoy building rather than inheriting established structures

• Bring energy, judgement and a strong sense of ownership

This probably won’t suit someone looking for a large existing HR team, significant infrastructure or a highly defined corporate environment.

Package

• £75,000–£100,000 base

• Additional package

• Equity opportunity

• London / hybrid

This appointment forms part of a broader investment in the senior leadership team and represents an opportunity to have a meaningful impact on the next stage of the business. xwzovoh
