Our client – a fast-growing beauty brand – is looking for an experienced People & Culture Manager to lead their people strategy and help scale the team as the brand enters its next phase of growth. This is an exciting opportunity to join a mission-driven company at an early stage and make a genuine impact.
The Role
As Head of HR, you’ll work directly with the founders to build and shape a high-performing, inclusive, and values-driven team. You’ll lead across all core HR functions — from recruitment and performance to culture and compliance — while setting up the right systems and policies for scale.
Key Responsibilities
- Own and execute the end-to-end people strategy in line with company growth plans
- Lead recruitment efforts across all departments (creative, operations, marketing, etc.)
- Build and maintain a strong, inclusive company culture
- Develop performance management, learning, and development frameworks
- Oversee day-to-day HR operations (contracts, onboarding, benefits, compliance, etc.)
- Advise founders and leadership on all people-related matters
What We're Looking For
- 8 years of HR experience, with at least 4 years in a leadership role
- Strong generalist HR background with exposure to both strategic and hands-on work
- Proven experience in a startup, scale-up, or fast-paced environment
- Passion for building culture, not just managing processes
- Bonus: experience in fashion, retail, or creative industries
