About This Role

You'll join Strava's international People team, which supports around several hundred employees across 14+ countries, spanning People Ops, Workplace, and People Partnering. This lean team keeps day-to-day People and Workplace operations running smoothly across a fast-growing international footprint. This is a fixed-term role for 12 months covering a team member's leave, supporting our People Ops Specialist and Senior Workplace Coordinator across two connected areas: People Ops administration (onboarding, employee data, compliance documentation) and Workplace coordination, including hands-on support standing up our new London office. You'll work closely with both specialists day to day, and act as a first point of contact for London-based employees on everyday workplace needs. We follow a flexible hybrid model that translates to more than half of your time on-site in our London office, three days per week.

What You'll Do:

• Support day-to-day People Ops administration, including onboarding paperwork, employee data updates, and compliance documentation
• Partner with the Senior Workplace Coordinator on logistics for our new London office, including vendor coordination and scheduling
• Act as a responsive, visible point of contact for London-based employees on everyday workplace questions and needs
• Track and prioritize multiple concurrent People Ops and Workplace initiatives, flagging risks or delays early
• Maintain accurate, up-to-date records across People systems (e.g. Workday) and workplace trackers
• Escalate ambiguous or employee-relations-adjacent issues to the right person promptly

What You'll Bring to the Team:

• Experience in HR/People Ops at a technology company or start-up
• Experience in contributing to workplace or in-office initiatives
• A high level of attention to detail and follow-through on administrative and compliance-related tasks
• A proactive, accountable approach; you take ownership and don't wait to be asked
• Well-developed organizational and project management instincts; you can juggle multiple initiatives and reprioritise fluidly as needs shift
• Comfort working across ambiguity in a dynamic, hands-on environment
• Familiarity with Workday or a similar HRIS is a plus
• Experience supporting an office move or fit-out is a plus
