Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa AnyVan Ltd Full time
AnyVan makes moving anything, anywhere easier, more affordable and greener for everyone.

With Over 8 million customers across the UK and Europe since our launch over a decade ago, we're proud to be known as the largest, fastest growing tech company in the logistics industry.

Like many popular marketplaces, we're asset light - i.e., we don't own any vehicles or employ any drivers.

We work with our transport partners and use technology to disrupt the entire delivery and moving process and to optimise the most efficient journeys.


Sustainability is a core part of AnyVan's mission and reducing environmental impact has always been at the heart of our business.

We're proud to say we've achieved carbon-neutral status on all our transport moves, and we won't stop here.


We've continuously celebrated exciting growth and key milestones, a key highlight being a £125mn investment from Vitruvian partners to reinforce our position as the UK market leader.

We're expecting the next 5 years to be even more exciting.


Our platform might be driven by technology, but we know it's our people that make AnyVan a great place to work.

We think big, we think differently, and we empower our colleagues to make a difference.

We know good ideas can come from anyone in any role - so if you're a self-starter looking to 'move' your career forward - Team AnyVan would love to hear from you.

Our People Team


We're a small dynamic team that makes sure AnyVan is a great place to work through placing our people at the heart of everything we do.

We work collaboratively to oversee all recruitment and HR related activities across multiple locations (UK, Europe, South Africa).


Highly visible within the business (and we like to think well loved) - we pride ourselves on the relationships we've built and our position as trusted partners for managers and colleagues alike.

It's key that we understand the strategic direction of the company and create priorities to support that. As we scale we know some changes will happen naturally but keeping what has made us so great to date (our culture and our people) is top of the agenda


As the senior HRBP in our Cape Town office, you'll lead from the front, providing day to day and strategic people/HR support to our Customer Service, Sales and local functions.

A large part of the role will focus on delivering an outstanding employee and stakeholder experience, balancing the needs of the business whilst being fair to our employees to drive employee engagement and retention.


What you'll be doing:

  • Work with senior stakeholders to ensure their teams are structured correctly and able to deliver the performance requirements for today's and tomorrow's needs
  • Be the escalation point of contact (after People Partner) for complex industrial relations issues including absence management, flexible working requests, performance management, disciplinaries and grievances etc
  • Oversee HR compliance for SA: triple BEE compliance, Payroll, Benefits Administration, Performance Management, Compensation Analysis
  • Work with the Head of Talent and Performance to ensure we develop the required capabilities for the business and to establish AnyVan as an "employer of choice"
  • Daily support for the local central support team, taking care of the entire employee lifecycle; benefits, pensions, process administration
  • Develop a commercial understanding of key business metrics, prepare relevant and high quality reports and highlight trends and provide insightful commentary
  • Help the business successfully manage change by keeping employees well informed of the 'why' we make the decisions we do
  • Professionally engage and interact with 3rd party suppliers i.e., benefits providers, employment lawyers etc

Experience we think you'll need to be successful in the role;:

  • Solid experience in an international HR Role with expertise in driving employee engagement, great culture and a wide range of ER issues
  • Strong knowledge of Employment Law in South Africa and ideally the UK and Europe
  • Proven track record creating and delivering effective programmes and initiatives that solve business challenges/issues
  • Experience of creating and leveraging diversity to benefit the team and the business
  • Good understanding of HR platforms and tools and how to work with them to get the best out of them (Automation, Reporting, business engagement, etc)
  • Proven track record delivering quantifiable results in line with business objectives
  • CIPD qualified would be beneficial but not essential

SKILLS

  • Solution focussed and results driven
  • Builds great relationships across all levels and cares about people
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to effectively liaise with and influence stakeholders at all levels
  • Driven by providing exceptional employee and stakeholder experiences
