The Role We’re supporting a fast-growing international fintech group in their search for a Senior People Operations Partner to join their small but high-impact People team, as they continue to scale and transform. This role isn’t a back-office function. It’s hands-on, proactive, and embedded in the business. You’ll play a critical role in shaping and delivering People policies across the UK, Spain, Portugal, and supporting US projects. With big changes underway, this is an opportunity to step into a role where you can make an immediate difference and grow with the team. You’ll directly support senior People leaders, work very closely with the People Partners, and act as a first point of contact for employees. If you thrive in a dynamic, international environment and enjoy balancing structure with ambiguity, this could be the perfect fit. What You’ll Be Doing Rolling out and refining People policies across Spain, Portugal, the US, and the UK - identifying what’s missing and building as you go. Partnering with managers and employees to provide direct support on a wide range of people topics. Coordinating projects. Supporting new market entry in Portugal, learning as you go, and helping to shape the foundations. Contributing to major upcoming initiatives, including launching a new People portal and leveraging AI tools to improve employee and manager experience. Acting as a bridge between employees and payroll, ensuring smooth handoffs and accurate processes. Using data to track, manage, and present progress, bringing structure, detail, and clarity to everything you deliver. What We’re Looking For Strong experience in People Operations, with exposure to more than one country (ideally Spain and the UK; Portuguese experience a plus). Fluent in English, with excellent communication skills. Spanish is a plus. Highly organised and detail-oriented, with strong Excel and project coordination skills. Curious and resilient - comfortable working in areas that are still being defined, and not afraid to learn as you go. Pragmatic, proactive, and able to balance multiple priorities at once. Experience handling sensitive employee relations cases. Someone who thrives in a small team where everyone is hands-on, international, and growing together. What’s on Offer The base salary is up to €55,000 plus a bonus structure. Exposure to complex international projects and a broad scope of People work. A collaborative team doing great work internationally, where you’ll be part of shaping the future. The Interview Process Initial conversation with a Recruiter. First Interview with the Hiring Manager. Panel interview with team members and stakeholders A small case study to wrap up the process. Interested? If you’re excited by the idea of joining a small but mighty People team, rolling up your sleeves on international projects, and building structure while things are still evolving, we’d love to hear from you. Before applying, take a moment to update your CV and highlight your experience across countries and projects; it’ll help bring your story to life.
