ABOUT HIVED 📦

At HIVED, we’re steamrolling forward as one of Europe’s fastest growing startups, and our momentum shows no signs of slowing.

Based in London, we are a climate and logistics start-up building the first sustainable parcel delivery network at scale, powered by a 100% electric fleet. In an ever-growing industry where unreliable service has long been the norm, HIVED has been built from the ground-up to meet the demands of modern consumers and disrupt parcel delivery.

A tech company at heart, our talent and technology is laser-focused on delivering the best possible delivery experience for end-customers and meeting the needs of our retail partners. From our drivers to our data engineers, we are constantly working to improve this customer experience that makes us deliver better.

Already trusted by leading international brands such as John Lewis, Nespresso, Uniqlo, H&M brands and more, we are solidifying our position as the leaders in Europe to tackle this growing market.

Our tight-knit team is made up of ex-Revolut, Bain, HelloFresh, ASOS, Apple and Google employees, and we are backed by some of Europe’s leading investors and VCs in climate-tech, logistics and mobility including Planet A Ventures https://planet-a.com/, Maersk Growth https://www.maersk.com/growth, Pale Blue Dot VC https://sifted.eu/articles/pale-blue-dot-vc-87m-fund/, Eka Ventures https://techcrunch.com/2021/07/12/eka-ventures-closes-95m-impact-vc-fund-for-sustainable-consumption-healthcare-and-society/, NordicNinja VC https://nordicninja.com/ and the British government. We’re passionate about driving innovation and redefining the future of delivery.

OUR VALUES

- 😊 We Are Kind - Kind to the planet, our team and our partners. We listen with purpose, leave our egos at the door and aren't afraid to make difficult decisions. We must never confuse kindness with being "nice" - it requires us to be fair, consistent, honest, thoughtful and compassionate.

- 🤝 We Are Tenacious - We fight every day to keep the customer promise, for every parcel entrusted to us. No matter how hard it gets or whatever stands in our way, we are relentless in our pursuit of excellence.

- 💡 We Are Curious - We never settle, constantly challenge convention and are never afraid to ask why. We believe there is always more to learn, always a better way, and that we're always only just getting started. We never fight the urge to be inquisitive, to understand the world around us and to explore where others might not.

- 🌍 We Are Resourceful - Our planet's resources are scarce and our future depends on our ability to use them wisely. Waste is the enemy. We strive to do more with less, be more efficient and make the most of what we have.

ROLE OVERVIEW 📝

You will sit within the People team, reporting into and working closely with the Ops People Lead. Where the Ops People Lead asks "are we being fair and consistent across the business?", you are the one making sure that's actually true - depot by depot, case by case.

In practice this means owning employee relations casework end-to-end, chairing disciplinary and grievance meetings on-site, and coaching junior-to-mid level managers who are often navigating these situations for the first time. You'll be the steady, trusted voice when things get difficult - someone who can walk into a depot, read the room, and give a manager the confidence to handle it right. Alongside this, you'll help build that confidence at scale, designing and delivering training that upskills managers before issues even reach you, you'll keep the administrative HR engine running smoothly, so the people-side of the business never grinds to a halt.

This role is a genuine opportunity to build deep credibility across a fast-growing operational business - with real ownership from day one, exposure to a workforce of 100+ people across the UK, and a clear path to grow within HIVED's People function. If you're independent, resilient, and want HR experience that's grounded in an ops based business, we want to hear from you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
