You’ll take ownership of the execution, while working with the COO on key people decisions and direction. This is a role for someone who enjoys getting things done ...

Help ensure we remain compliant with employment regulations across the countries we operate in, including the UK, Ireland, and other EU markets.
Keep our HR systems, documentation, and employee records organised and up to date.
