About the role
Sardine is looking for a Head of Talent & People to lead and grow our global team. This is a hands-on, player-coach role - you'll set direction and manage a full team of practitioners, while still staying close enough to the work to source a hard-to-fill candidate yourself, sit in on a tough employee relations conversation, or dig into a comp band directly. You'll own Talent, People Ops, and HR Business Partnering end-to-end, with a mandate to build pragmatic systems that scale with a fast-growing startup.
What they're looking for
- 12+ years in talent/recruiting and people roles, with real depth in talent
- Experience running people function at fast-paced, high-growth tech startups
- Proven experience managing a strong Talent and People team, ideally spanning both Recruitment and People Ops/HR - you know how to set direction, hold people accountable, and develop managers
- Generalist range: you're equally credible talking about an offer negotiation, a comp band, a difficult employee relations issue, or a performance management
- A player-coach mindset - you want to do the work, not just direct it
- Excellent judgment and discretion, you build trust quickly with founders, execs, and employees at every level
