The Role As our Senior People Partner, you will be the strategic people-operations lead for Flux’s growing US presence. You’ll work closely with senior leaders, locally and global, to coach managers, shape people-practices, and ensure that our culture and processes scale thoughtfully as we grow. This is a hands-on role with significant opportunity to shape how we work as we expand. This role is based onsite in our new location in San Francisco and is 5-days a week in the office.

Responsibilities

Partner with and coach our people managers and leaders.
Provide operational and strategic guidance to ensure compliance with US federal and Texas employment law.
Act as the primary HR contact for our US team (Both Austin and San Francisco Offices), owning the full employee lifecycle from onboarding to off-boarding.
Collaborate closely with our UK-based People and Ops teams to ensure consistency and adaptability across regions.
Support our short and long-term business goals, including driving people-practices that enable a high-performance culture.
Lead on employee relations and People operations.
Work cross-functionally on company-wide projects with other teams at Flux, e.g., Operations and Finance teams.
Lead by example, demonstrate the Flux values, and be a cultural ambassador.

Skills & Experience

Substantial experience (5+ years) in an HR role within a small, fast-paced, high-growth technology company.
Demonstrable fluency in US employment law; global experience or UK exposure is a plus.
Proven ability to build strong relationships and influence without formal authority across all levels of an organisation.
Comfortable working independently and across time zones in a remote-reporting setup.
Comfortable operating at pace and managing ambiguity with a pragmatic, solutions-oriented approach.
Excellent interpersonal, communication, and organisational skills, capable of juggling multiple priorities and tight timelines.

Compensation & Benefits

Due to U.S. export control regulations, candidates’ eligibility to work at Flux depends on their most recent citizenship or permanent residency status. We are generally unable to consider applicants whose most recent citizenship or permanent residence is in certain restricted countries (currently including Iran, North Korea, Syria, Cuba, Russia, Belarus, China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Venezuela). Applicants who have subsequently obtained citizenship or permanent residency in another country not subject to these restrictions may still be eligible.

We do not accept unsolicited CVs from recruitment agencies, will not be liable for any fees, and prohibit unauthorised use of our company name in recruitment activities.

Strong analytical mindset, able to leverage both quantitative and qualitative data to guide people-decisions.

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience in Human Resources, Business Administration, Psychology, or related field.

Competitive salary and stock options, you’re not just part of the journey, you will own a piece of it.

Live within 45 minutes of the office? Perfect. Live within 20 minutes? We’ll add an extra location bonus to your salary.

We offer financial and operational relocation support (US and abroad), through a dedicated third-party provider who is on hand to make your move to Austin as seamless as possible.

We offer visa sponsorship so if we make you an offer we will make every reasonable effort to secure you a visa, but we may not be able to sponsor visas for every role and candidate.

We’re in the process of setting up a US group policy once we have 5+ employees. In the meantime, we’re providing a health insurance stipend of $800/month to offset costs. Once the group policy is live, Flux will cover 100% of the employee premium, and offer options like dental, vision and life insurance with an aim to remain competitive among Austin tech and start up employers.

We offer US employees access to a 401(k) retirement savings plan and we plan to introduce an employer match in line with Austin tech market norms (commonly in the 4-5% range). Our goal is to keep our retirement benefits competitive while we scale.

Top of the line, high-spec tech for everyone.

Sony noise-cancelling headphones and ergonomic setups to keep you comfortable and focused.

Personal company card to spend on tools that help you do your job - like ChatGPT Pro or anything else that boosts your workflow.

Periodic travel to London HQ and regular team socials.

33 days of paid time off (PTO), including US federal holidays.
