About the role

LeanData helps the world's fastest-growing companies automate, simplify, and accelerate revenue.

As our People & Talent Specialist, you'll sit at the heart of the employee experience - supporting candidates from first conversation through offer, and supporting employees from onboarding through everyday people operations. This is a true hybrid role: roughly half recruiting coordination and sourcing, half people operations. It's a great fit for someone who enjoys variety, moves quickly, and wants exposure to the full lifecycle of how a high-growth SaaS company hires and cares for its people.

You'll report to our People Operations Manager and partner closely with our Talent Acquisition team, hiring managers, and the broader People & Talent function.

Responsibilities

Talent Acquisition

  • Source candidates across LinkedIn, ATS pipelines, referrals, and other channels for active roles across the business.

  • Conduct initial candidate screens, assess fit, and move strong candidates through the funnel.

  • Own end-to-end interview scheduling and coordination, partnering with hiring managers and candidates to deliver a smooth, professional experience.

  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date records in our ATS (Ashby), including candidate notes, status changes, and reporting inputs.

  • Support employer brand activities, including job postings, candidate communications, and recruiting events.

  • Partner with the TA Manager on pipeline health, sourcing strategies, and process improvements.

People Operations

  • Support performance review cycles end-to-end: system setup, manager and employee communications, tracking completion, and troubleshooting.

  • Coordinate with our benefits broker on open enrollment, employee benefits questions, and ongoing program administration.

  • Help administer our HRIS (BambooHR), including employee data updates, reporting, and audits.

  • Support onboarding and offboarding logistics in partnership with the People Operations Manager.

  • Respond to day-to-day employee questions on policies, benefits, time off, and general HR topics — escalating sensitive matters appropriately.

  • Assist with compliance activities across US and UK entities, including I-9s, right-to-work checks, and required reporting.

  • Contribute to people programs and initiatives such as engagement surveys, recognition, and culture activities.

Qualifications

Required

  • 2–4 years of experience in talent acquisition, people operations, HR coordination, or a similar hybrid role.

  • Hands-on experience with an ATS and/or HRIS.

  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail — you can hold a lot of moving pieces without losing track.

  • Clear, warm written and verbal communication with candidates, employees, and managers.

  • Sound judgment around confidential information and sensitive employee matters.

  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, high-growth environment where priorities shift.

Preferred

  • Experience in B2B SaaS or another high-growth technology company.

  • Exposure to both US and UK employment contexts.

  • Familiarity with Ashby, BambooHR, Lattice, or similar tools.

  • Experience supporting a performance review cycle or open enrollment.
