Job description

3 billion people across the world work in frontline jobs. Yet, despite rising costs and staff shortages, frontline organisations are still left to choose between paper, Excel, and WhatsApp, or decade-old workforce management solutions to take care of the most important part of their businesses – their people.

Enter Sona: the next generation of AI‑native, frontline workforce management. We’ve built an end‑to‑end platform covering Scheduling, HR, Payroll, and Communications that gives the largest frontline organisations everything they need to staff smarter and empower their teams.

In 4 years, we have improved the lives of over 100k frontline workers, grown the team to 140+ and secured $50M‑+ in funding from notables VCs and angels.

It’s an exciting time to join – we’re still small enough to give you impact yet large enough to have structure, experienced leadership and world‑class benefits.

About the Role

We’re hiring a Senior People Partner to own the day‑to‑day of our People function as Sona scales through its next phase of growth. You report to the Chief of Staff & VP of People (dual role). The mandate is to partner with senior leaders on people decisions that matter, improve processes, and empower a 150+ person, globally distributed team.

Responsibilities

  • Own the people function day‑to‑day as a key business partner across the organisation.
  • Partner with managers and leaders on performance management, probation, employee relations and mandatory people decisions.
  • Drive People projects – performance management frameworks, learning & development, and culture initiatives – through design to execution.
  • Improve and document our operating processes, ensuring they are AI‑first and scalable.
  • Work with the VP of People to roll out the People strategy as we expand beyond 150 headcount into international markets.

Requirements

  • Self‑sufficient People generalist comfortable with business partnering, ops and project delivery.
  • Experience in a startup/scale‑up (ideally post‑Series A), building “from scratch” rather than mandating mandates.
  • Strong commercial sense – frame People decisions around business strategy and organisational priorities.
  • Personal experience with performance management, probation, and difficult people situations.
  • Self‑sufficient stakeholder manager who navigates ambiguity and makes independent judgement calls.
  • Clear, self‑directed communicator who adapts to different audiences and levels.
  • Bonus: experience scaling a people function through 150‑300+ headcount, int’l employment exposure or designing performance management / L&D from scratch.

Benefits

  • Salary: £80k‑£95k
  • Hybrid working: 3 days in‑office in London.
  • Share options.
  • 35 days annual leave (25+10 flex.)
  • 1 extra day of leave per year of service.
  • Pension contributions up to 5 %.
  • Comprehensive health‑insurance.
  • Enhanced parental leave & pay.
  • Salary‑sacrifice childcare (work‑place nursery).
  • Annual team retreats – all‑expenses paid.
  • Self‑purchased Macbook and home‑office equipment budget.
  • Professional‑development budget.
  • Unlimited free books.

Note: this package refers to the standard benefit offer for a UK‑based, full‑time employee. Details may vary by location or employment type – contact the Talent team for clarification.
