We're hiring an HR Manager, but not in the traditional sense.
We don't need someone to manage HR.
We need someone who can
build a strong team and culture while we scale fast.
About Us
We're a growing SaaS company working in the eCommerce and ERP space. The company is at a stage where things are moving fast hiring is constant, teams are evolving, and structure is still being built.
This role is important because how we scale people will define how we scale the company.
What This Role Is Really About
At its core, this role has two clear responsibilities:
1. Build and protect the culture
We want to build a company that is:
- Accountable
- Transparent
- People-friendly (not political)
- Performance-driven
Your job is to make sure this doesn't break as we grow.
This is not about running engagement activities.
It's about:
- Listening to people
- Spotting problems early
- Having difficult conversations when needed
- Helping managers become better leaders
2. Own hiring end-to-end
You will own hiring outcomes.
You will have a recruiter, but you are responsible for:
- Speed of hiring
- Quality of hires
- Candidate experience
You'll work closely with founders and team leads to:
- Define roles clearly
- Improve interview processes
- Ensure we're hiring the right people, not just filling positions
What You'll Actually Be Doing
- Talking to people across teams and understanding what's working / not working
- Helping resolve team or manager-level issues
- Driving hiring across roles (tech + non-tech)
- Improving onboarding so new hires don't feel lost
- Helping define roles, expectations, and performance clarity
- Supporting managers in handling underperformance
- Putting basic systems in place (without overcomplicating things)
Requirements
What We Care About

This Role Will Not Work If

Experience

Why This Role Exists
Right now, a lot of people-related decisions sit with the founders.
We want someone who can:
- Take ownership of this area
- Bring clarity
- Help us scale without losing what makes the company work
Benefits
What You Get
- Direct exposure to founders
- High ownership (not just execution)
- Opportunity to build things from scratch

If you're someone who wants to actually build a company from the inside, this role will be meaningful.
