Candidate profile:

We are a sales-driven financial services business with over 50% of our employees working in the Front Office. Experience of working in a similar organisation, supporting Sales teams and managers would be useful.

Strong written and verbal communication skills, an affinity with data, attention to detail and accuracy are essential.

The business operates at an incredible pace so we need someone who thrives in this environment but who also has the confidence and capability to know when to challenge diplomatically as well as plan ahead.

A proven track record in a HR Business Partner role, ideally within a scale-up/high-growth organisation.

Knowledge or experience in the Financial Services sector would be useful.

Strong collaboration and teamwork capabilities.

Experience as HRBP in other countries outside of the UK is essential.

A ‘roll your sleeves-up’ and pragmatic, positive mindset is essential.
