You’re an experienced People Partner who has supported commercial/GTM organisation within high growth, fast-scaling environments (FinTech/SaaS preferred).
You understand how growth happens in real time (headcount, revenue targets, structure, incentives, execution) and how people decisions drive it.
You’ve built credibility with executives by combining sound judgement with a calm, data-driven approach. Leaders seek your perspective not just on people matters, but on how teams operate and deliver.
You’re commercially fluent and comfortable in the rhythm of a sales organisation - forecasting, productivity, territory models, incentives, performance. You can connect those levers to people strategy instinctively.
You’re decisive and pragmatic. You move things forward, set expectations clearly, and prefer clarity over consensus.
You care about outcomes as much as intent, and you believe that strong culture comes from clear leadership, consistency, and fairness, not slogans.
You bring maturity, resilience, and discretion. You know when to challenge, when to advise, and when to simply get things done.
You have a passion for your work; you’re curious, commercially minded, and motivated by building environments where people and performance thrive.
