Contract Adviser in London

About Lendable

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money. We're building one of the world's leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:

• One of the UK's newest unicorns with a team of just over 700 people
• Among the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK
• Profitable since 2017
• Backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs
• Loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot)

So far, we've rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance. We're growing fast, and there's a lot more to do: we're going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.

You are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1. Work in small teams of exceptional people, who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo. Build the best technology in-house, using new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting.

We're looking for an experienced, ambitious People Advisor to join our team. Reporting to our Senior People Partner, you'll own key aspects of the employee lifecycle, from probation and absence through to family leave and flexible working, pairing process execution with commercially minded advice, so our managers and employees are well supported. You'll balance hands-on advisory with exposure to strategic work happening across the People Partnering team (i.e. talent density, reward, leader development), leading high-impact initiatives.

How you'll meet those objectives:

• Employee Relations: Own probation and absence management, as well as supporting performance management.
• Employee Lifecycle: Lead on aspects such as family leave and flexible working requests. Act as tier-2 support for anything beyond what our self-serve bot can resolve - and help us identify where that bot itself could go further.
• Support onboarding, policy and benefits for our US and MX populations as we scale internationally.
• Spot patterns and feed them back into the team, flagging where policy, process, manager coaching, or systems could improve.

What we're looking for:

• Experience: 3-5 years experience in a HR advisory type role.
• Commercial Awareness: Use good judgement to balance business and people needs.

Interview Process:

• Screening stage: 20 min Talent interview & 15 minute online assessment
• Hiring manager interview: 30 minutes remote
• Stakeholder interview: 30 minutes remote
• Final stage in person interviews totalling 60 minutes: Leadership interview with our Chief of Staff for the People team
• Case study interview with the VP of People and Hiring Manager

Life at Lendable:

• Winning team: the opportunity to scale up one of the world's most successful fintech companies
• Flexible working: flexible approach tailored to each role. Hybrid roles require three days in-office weekly; fully remote roles include regular opportunities for in-person connection through socials and off-sites
• Socials & connection: opportunities and events to come together, socialise, and get to know each other beyond the office walls
• Health coverage: support for your physical and mental wellbeing, including private health cover
• Retirement & savings: long-term financial wellbeing through retirement savings plans
• Employee referral programme: earn a competitive bonus when you refer successful new team members
• Office meals & snacks: enjoy a fully stocked kitchen, plus complimentary lunches prepared by in-house chefs on in-office days at select locations
• Sustainable commuting: cycle-to-work and electric vehicle salary sacrifice schemes available in select locations
