Job description

Reebelo is a marketplace for refurbished tech devices and certified pre-owned lifestyle products. We empower consumers to save up to 70% on their favorite brands while contributing to a sustainable future with every purchase. Our ambitious vision is to lead the circular economy, transforming how people think about consumption. Headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area with team members across the US, Canada, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, the UK, France, Germany and Italy. We have raised over $65M in funding and are fully profitable, join our VC-backed scaleup if you're ready to be part of a dynamic, high-growth team dedicated to making a meaningful impact.

About the role

In this genuinely exciting role, you'll be the sole owner of the day-to-day People function for 50+ global team - people operations, payroll, recruitment, and employee support - working directly with the founders. You'll inherit a well-documented foundation: a global HRIS (Rippling), a documented payroll and compliance calendar with per-country runbooks, and established external providers and advisors.

What you'll do

• People operations: own onboarding and offboarding end-to-end (contracts, right-to-work, systems access, final pay, benefits administration including US open enrollment and leave, records, and verification letters).
• Team Engagement: find creative and exciting ways to connect our globally distributed team.
• Recruitment: run the full lifecycle - job ads, sourcing, LinkedIn applicant review, screening, interview coordination, ATS data integrity, references, and offers.
• Employee relations & difficult conversations: act as first point of contact for all employee matters; support performance conversations, exits, and separation agreement negotiations across jurisdictions with maturity and discretion, escalating to external counsel where needed.
• Compliance in a global setup: execute statutory obligations per jurisdiction to hard deadlines.
• Founder support: people reporting, headcount and cost data, and quarterly board input preparation.

What you'll bring

• Minimum of 3+ years in a HR Generalist role.
• HRIS & tech fluency - Rippling experience a significant advantage.
• You can hold difficult conversations with judgment and discretion - performance, exits, sensitive employee matters.
• Extreme organisation and follow-through in a solo-operator environment with minimal supervision; you document as you go and know when to pull in external experts.
• Comfort working across time zones with a globally distributed team.

Why You'll Love Working Here

• Flexible Hybrid: This role is available on a full-time or flexible part-time basis for the right candidate with 1 day per week from our San Mateo office.
• Compensation: Competitive salary, performance bonus, 4% employer match and performance bonus (increasing to 5% 1 Jan 2027).
• Benefits: 85% employer coverage & generous HSA plans (increasing to 90% 1 Jan 2027).
• Low-Meeting Culture: We prioritize focus time and async communication.
• Lean, High Performance Team: Reebelo intentionally operates with a lean, high performance team. Our engineers love this because they love owning their projects end-to-end and seeing the impact of their contributions daily!
• Global Mobility: We support team members working remotely anywhere in the globe for set periods of time with the option to spend time working from one of our international co-working space in San Francisco, New York, Toronto and Melbourne.
• Initial Screen Interview with our outgoing Head of People [15-30 minutes]
• Case Study Interview [60 minutes]
