ABOUT THE ROLE This role sits at the heart of Beam's mission. We're looking for a strategic, commercially-minded, and builder-at-heart People Performance Partner to join our People team. You'll be the driving force behind creating the performance infrastructure Beam needs as we scale - designing the frameworks, processes and manager capability that don't yet exist in mature form, and acting as a trusted people partner to department heads across the business. Partnering directly with the Associate Director of People and senior leaders across Sales, Engineering, CS and beyond, you'll ensure our managers are equipped to lead high-performing, accountable teams - and that the systems supporting them are built to scale as we grow. This is the perfect opportunity for someone who thrives on building from scratch, gets energised by commercial complexity, and sees AI as a natural part of how great People work gets done. In this broad, hands-on role, you'll shape everything from performance frameworks and calibration processes to performance management and our manager resource infrastructure.

Your default is to create something reusable. The goal is a self-serve layer of tools and resources that raises the quality of leadership across the whole organisation. YOU’LL BE - Building performance frameworks from scratch: You will design the standards, processes, and tools that underpin how the company assesses, develops, and holds people accountable, working with the AD of People and department heads to agree on what good looks like and ensure consistency across teams. - Owning the performance cycle: You will run Beam’s performance review process end-to-end: design, calibration, manager guidance, and outcomes. You will ensure reviews are evidence-based, ratings are consistent across teams, and the process produces decisions that hold up. - Coaching and developing managers: When managers bring you live situations - underperformance, unclear expectations, feedback quality - your default is to build something reusable, not solve them directly. You will identify patterns across teams and address them by creating resources that sit in our tech stack and work without you in the room. A recurring issue becomes a guide, a framework, or a co-pilot resource. Your measure of success is managers handling things independently, not managers who need to come back to you. - Partnering across all business areas: You will build working relationships with department heads across the business - Sales, Engineering, CS, and others - well enough to understand what is happening commercially in each area and what it means for their people. You will bring a clear point of view on org health, team structure, and people risk. - Handling complex and formal ER: You will support with employee relations cases where performance or capabilit
