Come and be yourself with us

Being a Bobber is all about being you. We want you to bring all parts of yourself to work, giving you the freedom and confidence to be the best you and do your best work. If that's bubbly, shy, precise, funny, bold, kind, honest, brilliant, or anything in between, we're waiting with open arms.
At HiBob, we believe our people are the power behind our business. As we continue to grow globally and prepare for our next stage of scale, we're looking for a People & Culture Partner to help shape exceptional employee experiences, strengthen manager capability, and contribute to the evolution of our People function.

About the role

As a People & Culture Partner at HiBob, you'll partner with leaders and employees across Customer Success, Business Development, Marketing and other commercial functions, helping build high-performing teams and supporting business growth.
You'll act as a trusted advisor to managers and directors, supporting organisational effectiveness, performance, employee relations, workforce planning and change initiatives. Alongside your partnering responsibilities, you'll own UK People Operations and continuously improve the employee experience across the full employee lifecycle.

As HiBob continues its journey towards IPO readiness, we're evolving how we work to become more scalable, data-driven and AI-enabled. This role will play an important part in that transformation, helping leaders navigate change, improve team effectiveness and rethink how work gets done in an increasingly AI-powered environment.
This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys operating at the intersection of people strategy, organisational effectiveness and operational excellence. You'll thrive if you're commercially minded, pragmatic, collaborative and excited by the opportunity to influence how a growing global organisation scales.
