About Flock

Road accidents kill and injure people, damage vehicles, and cost businesses fortunes. But traditional insurance does nothing to prevent them - it just pays out claims when they happen. At Flock, we're changing that. Using telematics, AI, and real-time data, we proactively help our fleet customers prevent crashes. We obsessively focus on keeping drivers safe, and we put our money where our mouth is - paying out millions of pounds per year to fleets that get safer over time.

We were acquired by Admiral in May 2026. Now we combine the backing of the UK's leading motor insurer with startup energy and speed. We're growing fast with bigger plans than ever, and we're hugely optimistic that our approach will save many more lives in the decade ahead.

We're on a mission to make the world quantifiably safer. Join us!

About the role

You'll own the people engine room at Flock: the employee lifecycle, payroll input, benefits, the HRIS, the office and our in-person events. Your job is to design how a modern People function should work at a company where repetitive admin is automated out of existence and every process is simple, scalable and AI-native by default. You'll report to our Senior People Partner and work with everyone here, from a new joiner on day one to the CEO, who cares deeply about our culture.

What you'll be doing

People Operations

• Own the full employee lifecycle: contracts, right-to-work, starter and leaver logistics, probations and changes. Shape the first day and first week alongside managers, delivering a strong employee experience across the lifecycle.

• Be the first point of contact for people queries and audits. Own the People inbox and core HR templates, and drive every query to resolution.

• Own the HRIS (HiBob) and people data: records, workflows, surveys and data integrity. Deliver monthly People reporting and metrics that spot and close gaps early.

• Own payroll input end to end: collate, calculate and submit each month, including bonuses and comp changes. Manage the provider and partner with Finance on reporting and year-end.

• Own benefits end to end as the main contact for providers, systems, data and employee advice, keeping policies and materials current.

• Cut manual effort across the lifecycle by building AI-native workflows, so every routine people process is automated by default, then coach the business to use them. Own continuous improvement across People Ops.
