Head of People

Teamstand’s vision is to unite information where you work today. In a world of too many apps, more than just time is lost when teams are asked to do their job across many software platforms.

Our product is derived from technology crucial to success in leading financial institutions, and we offer companies and individuals the power to transform business communication that has seen little innovation in the past two decades. We are an early stage startup with $19M in funding and just over 40 people, so there is much to be done!

You’ll find joining our team to be particularly compelling if

• You’ve worked at growth-stage companies and want to pick up experience building the business from the beginning
• You’ve worked closely with senior stakeholders, and you are looking for firsthand experience operating the rocketship yourself

We believe that passionate work, speaking your mind, and commitment to growth are the most important traits to bring to our team.

As a member of Teamstand’s People team, you will work closely with teammates across our organization on engaging, attracting and retaining top talent. You’ll lead everything in the employee lifecycle, from sourcing to people development and operations. People are at the heart of everything we do, and you’ll play an instrumental role in translating our business strategies into people solutions that best enable business outcomes. We’re aiming to attract and retain elite talent (including you!) to join us on our journey and you’ll be responsible for a variety of projects that support that goal.
