The People TeamPrimer’s People team exists to build a great, sustainable business. We believe our people are our competitive advantage, and our role is to design an employee experience that helps Primigos do their best work.
We have been fully remote and globally distributed since founding in 2019, and we operate with a high-trust, flexible culture. Our People team works with a Product mindset. We take a user-centric approach, prioritise ruthlessly based on ROI, measure impact through clear metrics such as eNPS, eLTV and CAC, and continuously look for smarter ways to work through automation and AI.
We are looking for a People Partner to support our go-to-market (GTM) and central teams, partnering closely with senior global leaders across Sales, Marketing, Merchant Experience, Finance and Operations. This is a fully remote role and can be based in the UK, Ireland, Portugal or Singapore.
What you’ll doYou’ll own and evolve key parts of our people experience by applying product thinking across the employee lifecycle:
Research: Conduct ongoing people product research with leaders, managers and employees to understand needs, behaviours and motivations, building clear user personas.
Plan: Identify pain points and moments that matter, translating insights into well-defined problems and hypotheses on the people roadmap.
Build: Design and iterate people products such as Career Frameworks, Performance Management, Total Rewards, Policies and Benefits, starting with MVP solutions and improving through feedback and data.
Launch: Ensure people product changes are launched clearly and thoughtfully, creating understanding and emotional connection.
Drive adoption: Enable self-service and adoption through high-quality documentation, Looms and targeted training.
Partner and support: Coach and advise managers and employees through complex or sensitive situations, using insights from these moments to continuously improve our people products.
You’ll influence outcomes across key metrics including employee NPS, retention and time-to-ramp.
What we’re looking for
Senior stakeholder partnering: Experience partnering with senior leaders in complex, changing environments, navigating ambiguity with confidence and pragmatism.
End-to-end people expertise: Strong grounding across the full employee lifecycle, from onboarding to offboarding.
Product-driven mindset: Proven experience building intuitive, tech-enabled, user-centric people products, using first-principles thinking to solve problems at scale.
Scale-up experience: Comfortable operating in high-growth, globally distributed organisations, balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution.
Commercial exposure: Experience working with GTM or commercial teams is a plus.
You love spotting problems and jumping in to solve them - you don’t wait to be told what to do.
You’re tech-savvy: you’re comfortable learning and using modern tools to manage workflows in a remote environment (e.g., Notion, Slack, Pitch, Google Workspace, AI tools).
You communicate well - we’re a fully remote company and work async a lot!
You have a great eye for detail
