Head of People

Description

**Job Mission** We are looking for someone who goes beyond HR operations. We want a person capable of sitting alongside the founders, truly understanding the business, and building a People function that delivers measurable results: the right hires, a sustainable remote culture, high-performing leadership, and a team that stays. You will be the guardian of Lastlink’s culture and the strategic partner to its leaders — structuring processes, developing people, and using data and AI to make better decisions. **Responsibilities** What you will do * Define and execute the People strategy aligned with Lastlink’s business objectives * Lead Talent Acquisition and Workforce Planning aligned with company growth * Structure and scale HR processes — onboarding, performance evaluation, career development, job architecture and compensation, internal communication * Strengthen a collaborative culture in a remote setting by creating rituals and practices that make values tangible in daily work * Build a performance management system with clear expectations and accountability * Support leadership development through applied learning paths and continuous coaching * Design and maintain a job architecture and compensation plan consistent with the company’s reality * Make data-driven decisions — treating People Analytics as a decision layer, not just reporting * Identify and implement automation and AI opportunities across People processes **Expected Outcomes (First 6 Months)** What we expect from your onboarding * People diagnostic presented to founders within the first 30 days — identifying gaps, priorities, and an action plan * Critical processes mapped and basic People Analytics activated by day 60 * Performance evaluation and onboarding cycles fully structured and operational by day 90 * Job architecture and compensation plan validated and e\-NPS baseline established by month 6 **️ Hard Skills** What you need to bring Required: * Generalist HR professional with deep expertise in culture, climate, performance, and career development * Experience building scalable HR processes from scratch in lean environments * People Analytics — focusing on outcome metrics (ramp time, retention, hiring quality), not just activity metrics * Experience managing job architecture and compensation * Hands-on experience with remote work models and engagement initiatives * **AI\-First as a working mindset** — actively uses AI in People processes, not just familiar with the concept Preferred: * Experience in fintech, SaaS, payments, or creator economy * Familiarity with tools such as Metabase, Power BI, or similar for People Analytics * Track record of building job architecture and compensation frameworks from scratch **Soft Skills** How you work * Influence at the C\-level — you navigate decisions without direct hierarchical authority * Direct communication — translate complex People topics into business language * Strategic vision with hands\-on attitude — you don’t delegate what doesn’t yet exist * Prioritization in multi-track environments with limited resources * Comfort with change, ambiguity, and zero-to-one contexts * Collaborative and empathetic leadership — builds trust without losing momentum **Expected Work Style** You’ll join a fast-moving team that values autonomy and holds people accountable for results. Lastlink is 100% remote, with active founders and an actively evolving culture. We don’t want someone who merely manages processes — we want someone who looks at processes, identifies what’s missing, and brings forward solutions. If you enjoy building from scratch, making culture tangible in everyday work, and leaving the People function better than you found it, you’ll feel right at home.
