Human Resources Director

HR Director

We are seeking an experienced, action-oriented HR Director to lead and scale our people operations across a fast-moving, technology-driven environment. This is a highly hands-on role, ideal for someone who thrives on building, improving, and executing HR processes end-to-end rather than operating at arm’s length.

You will partner closely with executive leadership while working directly with recruiters, hiring managers, and operational teams to deliver best-in-class HR support across the full employee lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

\n
• Own and manage end-to-end HR operations, including payroll, benefits, compliance, and employee lifecycle management
\n
• Lead payroll and benefits administration, including 401(k) plans and US-aligned benefits structures
\n
• Build and continuously improve a cradle-to-grave recruiting pipeline, from workforce planning and sourcing through onboarding
\n
• Manage multiple roles and candidates simultaneously in a high-growth environment
\n
• Partner closely with internal and external recruiters, ensuring alignment, pace, and quality of hire
\n
• Oversee and optimise HR systems and tooling, including ATS platforms and HRIS (experience with ADP, JazzHR or similar strongly preferred)
\n
• Support leadership with practical, commercial HR advice that balances business needs with people outcomes
\n
• Act as a trusted bridge between executives and delivery teams — translating strategy into action
\n
• Roll up your sleeves and engage quickly where needed, especially during periods of growth or change
\n

Experience & Background

\n
• Proven experience in a senior HR leadership role within technology-focused or high-growth organisations
\n
• Strong exposure to US recruiting and employment practices (candidates based in South America or Europe with US experience are encouraged to apply)
\n
• Deep operational knowledge of:
\n
• Payroll & benefits
\n
• 401(k) administration
\n
• Recruiting operations and pipelines
\n
• HR systems, ATS, and HRIT
\n
• Comfortable coordinating across multiple stakeholders, time zones, and priorities
\n
• Highly execution-driven with a bias toward action and problem-solving
\n

What We’re Looking For

\n
• A pragmatic HR leader who enjoys being close to the work
\n
• Someone who collaborates naturally with executives while staying connected to the team doing the day-to-day delivery
\n
• Organised, adaptable, and confident managing competing priorities
\n
• Strong communicator with the credibility to influence at all levels
\n

If you are a hands-on HR leader who thrives in fast-paced, technology-driven environments and enjoys building scalable people operations from the ground up, we’d love to hear from you.
