VP of Business Operations

Role Description

Are you passionate about building people-first workplaces where talent thrives and culture scales?

In our Human Resources roles, you’ll go far beyond policy enforcement or routine admin. You’ll play a hands-on role in shaping how high-performance teams are hired, supported, and developed across a global portfolio of companies.

From recruitment and onboarding to performance management and employee engagement, you'll use proven frameworks to build scalable HR systems that enable growth, alignment, and retention—without bureaucracy.

This is the ideal role for HR professionals who want to drive real business outcomes while supporting people at every stage of the employee journey.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Designing and executing scalable people processes across recruitment, onboarding, engagement, L&D, and performance.
• Partnering with leaders to ensure HR operations align with business objectives.
• Implementing data-driven frameworks to track key HR metrics and improve outcomes like retention, productivity, and satisfaction.
• Rolling out employee lifecycle playbooks across fast-moving, remote-first teams.

What You WON’T Be Doing

• Acting only as an administrator or gatekeeper—you’ll be a proactive partner, not just a policy enforcer.
• Managing slow, manual processes. We automate wherever possible so you can focus on impact.

Key Responsibilities

• Optimize end-to-end HR operations across hiring, onboarding, performance, and engagement.

• Maintain compliance with labor laws while creating employee-first practices.

• Use people data and pulse surveys to shape decisions and improve team health.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with operations, leadership, and support teams.

• What We’re Looking For

• Experience in HR, talent management, or people operations—ideally in fast-paced or global environments.

• Strong understanding of HR tools, systems, and compliance frameworks.

• Ability to balance empathy with performance-driven people practices.

• Process-oriented mindset with attention to detail and continuous improvement.

• Why This Role Is Unique

• You’ll work across multiple companies and teams, applying playbooks that let HR scale without adding layers of overhead. You’ll build systems that grow with the organization—empowering talent and strengthening culture along the way.

• What You’ll Learn

• How to implement modern HR practices at scale across remote, global teams.

• How to align people strategies with business goals for measurable impact.

• How to build agile, tech-enabled HR operations that improve both experience and performance.

This Role Is for You If You:

• Love people and processes equally.

• Enjoy shaping culture while improving systems.

• Are energized by solving people challenges in dynamic, evolving organizations.

• $200,000 USD/year

This is a global, remote role with high autonomy and high accountability. You must be available for at least six hours overlapping U.S. business hours on weekdays. Outside of that, your schedule is largely self-directed.

One last thing, in the spirit of honesty: our application process requires real effort. Most candidates invest meaningful time because the role itself requires it.

Candidate requirements

• 5+ years of experience in business operations, people or talent operations, program management, or a similarly system-heavy role
• Direct experience hiring for your own team or function, with accountability for hiring outcomes (e.g., time-to-fill, quality, retention)
• Hands-on experience designing and implementing operational systems end-to-end, not just maintaining them
• Experience creating org and operating artifacts such as role specs, org charts, ladders, RACIs, workflows, or decision frameworks
• Strong written operator: has produced SOPs, process docs, or post-mortems used by others
• Working knowledge of U.S. hiring practices and regulations, including compliance considerations
• Comfort working directly with senior leaders without formal authority
• Practical, daily use of AI in operational work, with attention to quality and trade-offs
• Availability for at least 6 hours overlapping U.S. business hours on weekdays
