Job Description

We’re excited to be partnering with Crop Shop Boutique (CSB) to find their next People & Culture Business Partner – someone who thrives in a high-growth, high-performance environment and is ready to make an immediate impact.

Since launching in 2019, CSB has grown into a globally recognised e-commerce brand redefining athleisure. Founded by entrepreneur and fitness leader Rachel Dillon, the brand blends performance, fashion and confidence – empowering women to feel bold, strong and unapologetically themselves.

As they continue to scale, CSB is looking for a capable and proactive HR professional who’s passionate about culture and understands how to embed best-practice people operations in a fast-moving business. This role offers a unique opportunity to work closely with a sharp and values-driven People & Culture Manager, while partnering with leaders across the organisation to drive excellence at every stage of the employee lifecycle.

About the Role

The People & Culture Business Partner will be both a trusted advisor and a hands-on support to CSB's managers and teams. You’ll take ownership of operational delivery across core people processes – including recruitment, onboarding, employee relations, engagement, compliance, and offboarding.

You’ll play a vital role in executing CSB’s people strategy day-to-day, helping bring to life the frameworks and initiatives led by the P&C Manager. The role requires someone who’s detail-oriented, emotionally intelligent, and excited by the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with employees at all levels of the business.
