Job Description

We’re on a mission to provide equitable access to economic opportunity, for everyone.

We close critical skill gaps in the workforce through a new kind of apprenticeship that combines work and learning. We begin by recognizing high-potential individuals both inside and outside of a company's current workforce and then we create applied, guided and equitable learning programs, with measurable impact. Because we believe the world needs a better way to match its potential.

We work with over 1,500 leading companies including the likes of Microsoft, Citi and Just Eat to help solve their business-critical problems, and we’ve trained over 16,000 professional apprentices in the tech and data skills of the future. This is made possible by our global team who are driven to achieve a mission that matters, together.

Join Multiverse and help us set a new course for work.

The Opportunity

At Multiverse, our people team is here to support every individual to fulfill their potential - and therefore Multiverse’s.

After a period of intense scale, we are now reaching the size and maturity to take our people partnering strategy to the next level. You will work with our leadership team in enabling our highly engaged, ambitious, and intelligent Multiversers to achieve more than they ever thought possible.

You will get to form deep partnering relationships with our C-suite and VPs, to ensure a consistent Multiverse approach, tailored to suit the teams’ unique needs. We have brilliant foundations already in place and a team of excellent people partners to lead and partner alongside - we would love to meet someone ready to join us for an amazing ride.

Specifically, you will:

  • Build and execute an effective end-to-end partnering strategy, implementing specific programmes to drive performance, engagement and well-being for tech

  • Develop, optimise, and assess scalable people processes that deliver in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.

  • Work with the People Experience team to ensure that DEI is at the heart of what we do, and embedded into all our processes

  • Work with the Senior Leaders in your orgs to ensure that our hiring planning and organisation growth support our planned scale

  • Optimise role design, compensation philosophies, and incentive plans to drive growth and performance, for the tech org

  • Lead on complex ER matters that are escalated beyond our ER team, supporting a resolution that leads to the best outcomes for all

  • Design and deliver custom career development approaches, L&D programmes, succession planning and engagement action planning activities

About you:

  • Need for speed: You’ve held a senior people partnering role in a fast-paced, high growth organisation that has been rapidly scaling Tech organisation, ideally with a presence in both the US and UK.

  • Subject matter expertise: You have demonstrable experience in leading a people partnering strategy, and have a deep understanding of how strategic people practices reduce risk and enhance performance. Ideally, you will be able to showcase your work with tech and engineering teams to drive scale, organisational design, and supporting your leaders to drive exceptional outcomes

  • Passion: You believe in the power of people teams to build thriving companies and cultures. You stop at nothing to make sure that this is felt in every team in the business.

  • Right-hand person: you know how to build relationships with managers of all levels - you’re empathetic, compassionate, effective and commercially minded.

  • Thought leader: we’re not looking for your traditional people partner - we’re looking for someone who sees people operations as a product and who constantly innovates to improve the employee experience.

  • Inspo: You are an inspiring people partner, someone that people inherently trust and who earns that trust.

  • People partnering guru: You know your stuff in the people space and are a leader on the best, most innovative people practices (plus some of the more boring bits, too).

  • The job is never done: You pride yourself on your attention to detail and hold yourself to high standards. You understand that you can only expect excellence if you demonstrate it yourself.
