We are a venture-backed team managing AI training data of some of the world's most ambitious tech companies and AI startups. What sets us apart is our team's obsession with pushing our product to where AI will be three years from today, and hiring highly talented people who could work anywhere, but chose to stick with us.

About the role

As Head of People at V7, you are in charge of onboarding, retention, and wellbeing of our people. V7 employs a team of around 70, and so far we've managed to grow with no single person in charge of HR/People thanks to a shared commitment to our talent. It's time for us to start a People function that rivals that of any other technology company.

The ideal candidate is a current or former head of people/talent with a track record of establishing and sustaining a strong company culture throughout periods of growth. You are as skilled in HR as you are in attracting talent through employer branding. You are a trustworthy member of the team and know when to call out on the founders or executives if they make a mistake.

  • Lead the newly estabished "People team"
  • Work with our designers to establish a strong employer branding across social media channels
  • Work with our founders to define and sustain the culture that make V7ers great.
  • Establish a skills & development program with the head of operations.
  • Define an exceptional onboarding and offboarding flow for employees.

Requirements

  • Previous experience leading HR or people operations.
  • Experience managing a wider HR team.
  • Experience with leading or working alongside Recruitment/Talent
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Evidence of having sustained a positive culture at a startup or scaleup.
  • Ideally CIPD level 5 or higher

Benefits

  • Unlimited vacation, just tell us when you need time off.
  • Paid tickets, accommodation, and travel to relevant conferences, nationally or internationally (NeurIPS, ICCV, CVPR, ...) to expand your network & knowledge during normal times.
  • Yearly 4-day company retreats in stunning locations
  • Unlimited high-quality coffee, tea, snacks, and other comforts every day.

The FlexScore® is the result of a rigorous 2-step verification of a company’s flexibility

First we assess the flexibility options V7 provides and then we anonymously survey a statistically significant proportion of their employees to make sure V7 is as flexible as they say they are. Our assessment is based on the six key elements of flexibility: location, hours, autonomy, benefits, role modelling and work-life balance.

We ask the hard questions so you don’t have to.
