Note: Partly is headquartered in Christchurch but has employees across NZ, AU and UK. If relocating to Christchurch, we would cover those costs. If working remote, we would pay for any visits to HQ (at least once per quarter).

< class="h1"> Our story

Partly's mission is to connect the world's parts. We're building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. We've more than tripled our team over the last 12 months and expect to double in size over the next 18 months. We're a global team spanning both Australasia and Europe.

Founded by ex-Rocket Lab engineers, we utilise bleeding-edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry.
We provide a scalable digital infrastructure solution to some of the world's largest businesses and the most exciting startups. Partly's solutions are integrated across hundreds of companies globally, providing the backbone for cataloguing and managing parts online.
Blackbird Ventures (Canva, CultureAmp etc.) led both our Pre-Seed and Seed rounds, alongside I2BF (NYC), Hillfarrance, Icehouse, Peter Beck (Rocket Lab), Akshay Kothari (Notion Co-Founder) and Dylan Field (Figma Co-Founder).
We're continuing to build a world-class team and ensuring Partly is a place where people can do the best work of their lives. We're proud of the culture we've built at Partly, and our values are lived throughout every experience.

< class="h1"> This role

The Talent & People Ops Manager will be our founding People hire. You will play an essential role in helping to build a high-performing team, providing exceptional people experiences, and ultimately, helping to lead us through our next stage of growth.

Your mission will be to build an environment and team where people do the best work of their careers. Our goal is to develop the highest-performing startup team in the world.
You will report to Harry Uffindell (SVP Operations & People).

< class="h1"> What will you do
  • Attract and recruit the top 1% of talent. You'll be responsible for our recruitment. That means building the Partly employer brand, actively sourcing and nurturing talent, creating JDs that excite and attract exceptional candidates, and embedding yourself deep in the tech ecosystem to attract world-class talent. 
  • Build out and improve our hiring and onboarding operations. You'll both build from the ground up and refine existing systems to hire and onboard new talent. This starts from ensuring our interview process is world-class, to how we make offers, to employment contracts, and even ensuring their first day, week and months at Partly are thoughtfully designed. 
  • Partner with our SVP Operations & People. You'll work closely with Harry (SVP of Operations & People) to collaboratively set, prioritise, and ultimately execute the strategy and key initiatives for Talent & People Ops. You will also be laying the foundations for scaling this function as we grow. 
  • Maximise the potential of our team. We want people to do the best work of their lives at Partly. You'll be given the freedom and responsibility to identify how we can achieve this. This may include things such as developing systems for regular feedback, ensuring everyone is having impactful 1-on-1s, challenging our ways of working, identifying and removing obstacles getting in the way, or crowdsourcing ideas to help people do their best work. 
  • Building the systems for long-term careers at Partly. You'll help design and deliver Partly's most impactful people-focused projects. This will involve helping to establish and improve how we think about levelling, role pathing, compensation, promotions, ESOP etc. You will also actively seek out ways to understand and ensure our teams are happy, engaged and motivated. 
  • Team-wide meetings and office events. You will take the lead in organising and running important team-wide events such as our quarterly Season Openers, company All-Hands, hackathons, and ensuring we celebrate birthdays and new parents. 
  • Assist with international expansion. As we expand globally, you'll work with our SVP of Operations & People to ensure we have done everything needed to establish a local presence and hire teams in new regions.

Note: attracting, hiring and onboarding exceptional talent will be one of the biggest company priorities post-Series A, so the top two bullets will likely account for 3-4 days of your week over the first 6-9 months.

< class="h1"> Your skills
  • You have experience working in a high-performance team. You'll have 5+ years of experience in People Ops, People Experience or Talent Acquisition roles in high-growth and dynamic environments, ideally at a startup. You have led the design and execution of programs to nurture, develop and retain talent. 
  • You can attract and hire world-class talent. You'll have experience in recruiting and building exceptional teams. You've helped hire the best of the best, either from inside a startup or at an agency supporting high-growth startups. 
  • You're a builder at heart. You start from first principles, and even if you didn't initially start your career in Talent or People Ops, you are familiar with building a people strategy from the ground up. You ruthlessly prioritise what's important and then roll your sleeves up to make things happen. You have excellent communication and presentation skills to get the whole company bought in. 
  • You're a hardcore people person. You approach things from a people-first perspective and have a strong passion for building incredible teams and providing a world-class employee experience. 
  • You'll be an ambassador for our values. You'll have a deep emphasis on driving our values at every touchpoint of the employee experience. You're positive, you act like an owner, and you inspire the rest of the team with your level of ambition.
< class="h1"> Benefits
  • Competitive base salary plus equity. Even though we're a small startup, we offer competitive salaries and great equity.
  • Parental leave and flexible return to work. After returning to work, primary carers can work 4-day weeks for 100% of their pay for the first twelve weeks. For secondary carers, we offer 10 days of leave at full pay.
  • Flexible working hours and location. We have an office-first culture, but you can work remotely or from home whenever it suits you. There are no fixed hours so you can choose to work when you're most effective.
  • A brand new architecturally designed office in Christchurch CBD. With free snacks, drinks on tap, two different coffee machines, social areas, and one of the best cafes in Christchurch 50m away.
  • Cultural lunches. Monthly team lunches to eat food from another culture and celebrate our team's ethnic ersity.
  • Ergonomic workspace. Sit-stand desks, ergonomic chairs, quiet spaces, and collaboration spaces to suit all kinds of working styles.
