Joblaze insights
Quick facts
From the original posting
Coder is growing from about 220 to 500 people by the end of 2027, and our People team is growing with us. We work in pods (GTM, R&D, G&A), each with its own HRBP and Generalist, so leaders always know who to call.
You'll be our first People presence on the ground in London and the day-to-day HR contact for the GTM pod, including our UK team and employees across our Employer of Record (EOR) arrangements. Our London entity is already up and running, so you'll keep the international employee experience running smoothly, help it mature, and work closely with the HRBPs on anything complex.
What you'll do
Be the primary day-to-day HR contact for GTM employees, including UK and EOR employees
Own offer letters, contract administration, and onboarding workflows for international hires, including country-specific requirements
Administer benefits for our UK entity and across EOR providers, and recommend improvements as our international population grows
Keep our UK employment practices compliant and current, working with Legal, Finance, and the HRBPs on policies, contracts, and statutory requirements
Keep international employee data accurate in Rippling and Deel, and support audits and reporting
Answer employee questions on benefits, policies, leave, and pay, and escalate complex matters to the HRBP
Identify and implement improvements to how we onboard, administer, and offboard international employees
What we're looking for
3+ years in HR or People Operations, with UK employment experience
Working knowledge of UK employment law (contracts, right to work, statutory leave) and familiarity with EOR models
Hands-on experience with Rippling and/or Deel
Comfort being autonomous as the only People team member in London
Detail-oriented enough to catch a contract error before it ships, and strategic enough to know when to escalate
Extremely collaborative, working with a US-based team across time zones
Bonus tacos if you have
(Tacos? Ask us how we say thanks by giving tacos!)
Experience in a newly established UK entity or an early-stage international People function
Exposure to EMEA employment law beyond the UK
A high-growth startup background, ideally in a technical or SaaS environment
As our London team and international footprint grow, this role is expected to grow in scope with the business.
