Despite the success we have already experienced, we still have a start-up 'feel' in many ways, enabling individuals to accelerate their careers by having responsibility, opportunity, and recognition without the constraints of bureaucracy.

- Accelerate Ebury's strategic ambitions by partnering with leaders and the Global HR Team to build, develop and retain a high-performing workforce that provides a consistent source of competitive advantage to the organisation.
- Act as a strategic partner for the business and its leadership.
- Consult with leaders to optimising people practices for their areas, including organisational design, people development, team performance, and talent and succession planning.

Candidate profile:
- A 'roll your sleeves-up' and pragmatic, positive mindset is essential.
- We are a sales-driven financial services business with over 50% of our employees working in the Front Office. Experience of working in a similar organisation, supporting Sales teams and leaders would be useful.
- There's plenty of ambiguity across the business so we need someone who excels in environments that lack structure but at the same time enjoy establishing and building clarity.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, an affinity with data, attention to detail and accuracy are essential.
- The business operates at an incredible pace so we need someone who thrives in this environment but who also has the confidence and capability to know when to challenge diplomatically as well as plan ahead.
- A proven track record in a HR Business Partner role, ideally within a scale-up/high-growth organisation.
- Knowledge or experience in the Financial Services sector would be useful.
- Strong collaboration and teamwork capabilities.
