About the Role
We are looking for an HR Operations Specialist to join our HR team and support the day-to-day delivery of HR across our international business.
This is a varied, hands-on role for someone who enjoys making things work well, keeping people and processes organised, and being a friendly and reliable point of contact for employees.
You will take ownership of a range of recurring HR operational activities, including employee documentation and lifecycle administration, HR systems and records, benefits administration and employee travel support. You will also support employee engagement initiatives and, when required, recruitment activities.
We are looking for someone who combines strong organisational skills and attention to detail with a genuinely warm and approachable communication style. You'll regularly interact with employees, managers and external providers across different locations, so being comfortable working with people is just as important as being comfortable working with processes.
If you enjoy a broad HR role where you can take ownership, solve practical problems and see things through from start to finish, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
Own day-to-day HR administration across the employee lifecycle, including onboarding, offboarding, employment contracts, standard amendments and other employee documentation.
Maintain accurate employee records, HR systems and documentation, and support routine HR reporting and data checks.
Support the administration of employee benefits across different countries, including health insurance, pensions and occupational health processes.
Provide day-to-day employee travel support, including travel administration, booking support and coordination with relevant providers.
Respond to employee HR queries and act as a helpful and approachable first point of contact for routine HR matters.
Coordinate and support employee engagement, internal communications and company culture initiatives.
Support recruitment activities when required, including interview coordination and candidate administration.
Work with external HR and workplace providers and support recurring operational activities and projects.
Look for practical ways to make our HR processes simpler and more effective.
What We're Looking For
You'll probably be a great fit if you have:
2+ years of relevant experience in HR administration, HR operations, HR coordination or a similar role.
Hands-on experience preparing employment documentation and supporting employee lifecycle processes.
Experience working with HR systems and maintaining accurate employee data.
Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple recurring processes and deadlines independently.
Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy.
Confident and natural communication skills, with the ability to build positive relationships with employees and managers.
A practical, proactive and solutions-focused approach.
The confidence to take ownership while also knowing when something needs to be escalated.
The flexibility to work in a small HR function where responsibilities are broad and priorities can sometimes change.
Experience working in an international or multi-country organisation, using BambooHR or a similar HRIS, or administering employee benefits would be an advantage.
Most importantly, we're looking for someone who is reliable, approachable and genuinely enjoys helping people while keeping things organised behind the scenes.
Why Join Velos IoT?
Join an international business backed by private equity.
Be part of a global company operating across multiple countries.
Enjoy the flexibility of a fully remote working environment.
Take on a varied HR role with the opportunity to make a visible contribution across the business.
Our Hiring Process
We aim to keep our recruitment process straightforward and give both you and us the opportunity to understand whether there's a good fit:
Short video assessment → Introductory call with HR Business Partner → Global Head of HR → CFO → Job Offer
The video assessment is a short opportunity for us to learn a little more about you, your motivation for the role and how you naturally communicate. No special preparation is required - we're simply interested in getting to know you beyond your CV.
