Regional HR Manager

We make change happen. From anywhere.

We offer a very generous holiday (PTO) allowance, trusting you to take vacation time that suits your personal life, alongside flexible working hours that empower you to work when it best fits you and your team. We provide Mac Books to all employees and additional support for fully remote workers to set up their home offices.

Our exceptional Time Away Policy includes 26 weeks of fully paid leave for birthing parents, 13 weeks for non-birthing parents, and extended leave for adoption, IVF, surrogacy, elective egg freezing, and women's health needs such as menopause, menstruation, endometriosis, and PCOS.

Our trusting, flexible, remote-first way of working means that work can fit around your life, rather than your life fitting around work.
