Senior HRBP; Tech, Product + Ops

Job Title Senior HRBP (Tech, Product + Ops)

Job Description Who are we?

IG Group is a FTSE 100 fintech operating across five continents, serving over 1.4m customers and handling billions of dollars in transactions – built on scale, trust, and proof. We didn't pivot to innovation; it's how we've always operated. What that means for the people who work here is real: genuinely complex problems to solve, the technology and resources to tackle them properly, and the kind of scope that's rare in established businesses.

The bar is high – bring a curious and forward-thinking mindset and we'll give you the platform to define what comes next.

Join us at IG – the future gets built here.

A word about our People team Thanks to recent changes to our business units, we’ve gone back to first principles with our partnering function. Our business partners partner: that is their craft and their whole job. The deep specialist work in Reward, Talent, Learning and Development, and Employee Relations sits with our Centre of Excellence, and partners draw on that expertise rather than trying to do all of it themselves.

What that gives you is a role with focus. You get to know a part of the business properly, build relationships that mean something, and spend your time on the work that actually shifts performance. It also means you are never on your own, because you have specialists behind you.

This is the senior step on our partnering ladder for Tech, Product and Ops. You will hold the largest and most senior client group in the area, and you will lead a small team of two HR Business Partners, based in Kraków and Bangalore, who partner the layers of the business below you. You will be judged on the quality of your own partnering as much as on the strength and consistency of the team you lead.

Who will you partner with?

Functions or business areas:
Product, Technology and Operations for IG Consumer Leadership team you support:
The Chief Product Officer, the CTO - IG Consumer and the Operations Director, and their leadership teams

Approximate population: c. 500, across three layers of the team Locations covered:
London (base), with population across the UK, Kraków (Poland) and Bangalore (India)
What is the role?

You will be the senior People partner to the leadership team above. This is a role for someone who has done the fundamentals of partnering well and is ready for the harder, more ambiguous work: the restructure that hasn’t started yet, the senior case that needs careful handling, the leadership team that is not yet performing as a team.

You will be close to the most senior leaders in your area and you will need to be genuinely useful to them. That means understanding the commercial picture, having a view, and being willing to hold your position when it would be easier not to. It also means being the person who makes things happen, not just the person who advises.

What will you do?

Partner senior leaders

Be the trusted People partner to your leadership team, in the room for the decisions that matter rather than told about them afterwards.

Coach senior leaders on their own leadership, their team dynamics and the calls they find hardest. Challenge them well.

Hold a position under pressure. Balance what the business wants with what is right for IG and for our people, and be respected for how you do it.

Manage competing priorities across several senior stakeholders without losing pace or losing anyone’s trust.

Lead, coach and develop your two HR Business Partners in Kraków and Bangalore, setting the standard for partnering across all three layers of the team and ensuring consistent quality wherever colleagues sit.
