A full-time hybrid role in Cambridge, United Kingdom
Gearset’s growing fast! As we scale it’s never been so important to develop our teams and people so they’re able to grow and develop the skills needed to meet the challenges of today and in the years ahead. We’re looking for a People Partner to join our people team, to support the business as we scale; to make sure that as we grow, we’re developing our managers with the right level of training, guidance and support to enable their team to do truly great work and that we’re building up organisational capabilities which will lead to the long term success of Gearset.
As a People Partner, you’ll have the opportunity to shape how we support our line managers and develop our teams. As their trusted partner, you'll be their sounding board, and coach, to help develop their leadership skills and equip them with the tools they need to lead and develop their teams.
This will be a hands-on, varied role, from very operational to managing more longer term, large-scale projects, where you’ll bring expertise to develop solutions. It’ll include everything from developing and delivering tactical training and coaching, through to delivering pragmatic solutions to fast moving people topics. You’ll work across all aspects across the employee lifecycle, and will be driven by the needs of the business as we continue to grow in the UK and US. Working closely with the business, you’ll help ensure Gearset remains a place where our teams are highly engaged, have the best experiences and our values are felt every day.
The successful person will be someone who understands the importance of and is comfortable working on principles not policies. Someone who can challenge and identify simple solutions, with the ability to see the bigger picture. Someone capable and comfortable working in a dynamic, fast moving environment, who’s excellent at building relationships and influencing others. Someone who’ll take ownership and be proactive in identifying what needs to be done and be able to collaboratively work with others to deliver this.
Gearset is the leading DevOps solutions for the millions of people developing on Salesforce, the world’s biggest CRM. We’ve the fast paced exciting environment of a start-up, with the success, stability, and ambition of a scale up.
In a few short years, we’ve rocketed from a 7 person start-up to over 180 people, and have become the DevOps solution of choice for some of the world’s biggest companies, including IBM, McKesson, and even Salesforce themselves. In the last 18 months we’ve opened offices in Belfast and Chicago, alongside our Cambridge (UK) HQ.
We’re proud of what we’ve built and how we’ve built it. We work as a team, where attributes of trust, openness and honesty are key, as they allow us to have a feedback-driven culture that keeps us improving to deliver the best solution for our customers.
Alongside our Glassdoor score of 4.8/5, and customer G2 scores of 4.7/5, we recently gained $55 million in funding, and received three awards from Best Companies UK in 2022.
