About the role

Our People & Talent team is building from scratch to support a category shaping company that has rapidly grown and continues to hire at pace. Reporting directly to the Global Head of Talent, you will manage the full employee journey including pre-onboarding, onboarding, benefits, people development and day-to-day people operations.

At Fundamental we see people and talent operations as a core product, and you'll shape how everyone experiences it. We are energised to work alongside exceptionally talented people, so the care and support we offer should match that standard. This means creating seamless offers, smooth first-week onboardings, clear and meaningful career pathways, and proactive answers before anyone has to ask. You will have the space to rethink existing processes rather than just maintain them, and actively automate repetitive tasks. By removing manual work where possible, you will free up time to focus on the human touches that truly matter.

What makes this role so dynamic is our global context. Everything you design needs to feel personal, thoughtful, and clear, to the candidates and employees you support. While working asynchronously is necessary for us, staying connected and unified is something this role will intentionally foster.

Foster an inclusive asynchronous workplace through intuitive self-serve guides and clear written communication that respects diverse time zones

Listen to employee feedback throughout the onboarding and lifecycle journey, using insights to continually refine and elevate the team experience

Collaborate with the Talent team to create a welcoming, cohesive transition from candidate experience to day-one onboarding

Nurture our distributed culture through performance development, engagement initiatives, and shared moments that bring people together

About you

Organised. You keep track of complex projects across multiple time zones without dropping the ball, and you prefer building reliable systems over relying on memory.

Thoughtful. You naturally put yourself in other people's shoes. Whether it is understanding a new hire's night-before nerves, giving a manager what they need to deliver feedback, or writing guidelines that are clear and accessible, you pay attention to the details that make people feel supported.
