Why this role matters
Until now, people operations at Stora have been led directly by our COO. As we grow, this is no longer sustainable. We’re ready for someone to take full ownership of hiring, onboarding, culture, policies, and performance—all the things that keep our team strong and aligned.
This is our first dedicated People role. You’ll be hands-on from day one, bringing structure and care to how we hire, welcome, support, and grow our team. You’ll work closely with leadership to shape an environment where everyone can do their best work.
What you’ll do
Own and improve our hiring processes—from job specs to onboarding
Track and maintain performance and feedback rituals across the team
Lead on HR policies, benefits, contracts, and general people ops
Organise internal team events, meetups, and offsites
Be a sounding board and support partner to team leads and leadership
Help define and embed our company values and cultural principles
Identify gaps or risks in how we work and proactively fix them
What you’ll bring
Highly organised and self-directed—you don’t wait to be told what to do
A bias for action and clarity—able to balance empathy with effectiveness
Confident working across everything from recruitment to policy writing
Great with technology and digital tools—able to establish and maintain effective systems and processes
Strong written and verbal communicator
Comfortable working closely with leadership and coaching others
Values trust, transparency, and healthy team dynamics
Preferred experience
Experience managing people ops or HR in a startup or SaaS company
Familiar with building hiring pipelines, onboarding journeys, and remote-first culture
Why join Stora
Stora offers a collaborative environment where you’ll have real ownership and impact. We value honesty, humility, and responsibility, and we’re excited to welcome someone who’s passionate about building a strong, healthy company culture from the inside out.
Location
We’re remote-first with a distributed team across the UK and Europe. This role would ideally be based in Northern Ireland to enable easier collaboration with the leadership team, but we’re open to the right candidate elsewhere in the UK or Ireland.
What we offer
Competitive salary
Remote work – with Belfast office access
Private health insurance for you and your family
Pension plan
35 days annual leave
Share options, Apple laptop, and WFH budget
