About the Client
Our client is an international fintech company operating in the payments space, working with distributed teams across multiple regions. The business is actively growing and moving from a founder-led people model to a more mature, structured organisation.

Role Overview
This role owns the full HR function end-to-end. The HR Manager will become the main point of responsibility for onboarding, people processes, internal communication, and culture — fully removing the founder from day-to-day HR topics. The focus is on structure, clarity, team health, and long-term development, while being comfortable operating in a dynamic and sometimes unstructured environment typical for a growing fintech business.

• Develop and introduce internal HR policies, processes, and cultural standards

• Collaborate closely with leadership to align people strategy with business goals

• The role involves communication with international employees and stakeholders

Requirements

• 3–5 years of hands-on HR experience (people operations, not recruitment-focused)

• Strong understanding of HR processes, employment contracts, and people management

• Experience working in fast-growing or dynamic business environments

• Fluent English and Russian, with confidence conducting interviews and 1:1s

• High level of independence, structure, and ownership

Key Soft Skills

• Ability to work calmly with complex or sensitive situations

• Business-oriented mindset with an understanding of company dynamics

• Structured thinking combined with flexibility in changing environments
