Our Mission
Reduce inequity by helping immigrants move money home by becoming the leading cross-border fintech for immigrants.
The Team
-> Founded by Harvard grads / 3rd-time founders --- also founded Segovia (successful exit) and GiveDirectly (>300M revenue, fastest-growing NGO).
-> Top performers from top and varied organizations (e.g., Bain, Bolt, Google, McKinsey, SafeBoda, Uber, Zipline) --- we like moving fast, and we hire people that do as well.
-> Driven by mission, guided by values (see below) – in deed, not just word.
-> Team as global as the mission, >30 languages from 25 countries (i.e., if you’re interested in learning to make Chicken Moambe, we’re the place).
About Us
Taptap Send is backed by top VCs (Spark, Canaan, Reid Hoffman, Breyer Capital, etc.), rapidly growing and a great place for those looking for both impact and a fast-paced tech startup environment. Read more about the journey in Reid Hoffman’s words or TechCrunch article
Launched in 2019, Taptap is tapping into a transformative shift in global finance: from banks to phones. While this has affected wealthier countries as well, it has been nothing short of a revolution for the emerging markets where the overwhelming majority of population had been unable to access digital finance previously. Its first product, Taptap Send, allows immigrants to send money home instantly and with no fee*, saving money in the process. With a formal market size of >700B alone, we’ve got a lot more saving to do for our users. And that’s just the beginning….
Our Investors
Spark Capital, Canaan, Reid Hoffman, Breyer Capital (Jim Breyer), Unbound (Shravin Mittal), Wamda (Fadi Ghandour), Firstminute Capital, Slow Ventures (Sam Lessin), Helios Partners (Souleymane Ba), Crossbeam Ventures (Ali Hamed), Nikesh Arora, Samih Toukan, and many other context-specific angels
*We charge fees for transfers on fixed exchange rate corridors (e.g., XOF, XAF).
The Role
We are looking for an Operations Manager (People/HR) to join our team!
As Operations Manager (People/HR) you will join the People Operations team and work closely with the Director of People Operations on a wide variety of HR projects, operations, and processes.
The People Operations team at Taptap Send is responsible for delivering a best-in-class People experience to 220+ Tappers and counting in 30+ countries around the globe. We own all things HR across the employee lifecycle (from offer to offboarding) and put company-wide People policies, systems, and processes in place. As Operations Manager you will play a key role in standardizing, streamlining, and automating – and often building from scratch – scalable, dynamic People Ops processes that keep the pace with Taptap Send’s growth.
What you'll do:
- Own the delivery of core People Ops cycles, processes, and tasks (wherever you're needed, you'll jump in!)
- Manage complex and cross-functional People Ops projects
- Identify gaps in our daily routines and introduce better processes to improve internal ways of working and the employee experience
- Develop resources and tools that the People Ops team can use to improve their effectiveness + efficiency in supporting Tappers
- Serve as reference point for teams such as Legal, Finance, Talent, IT, Compliance, tackling ad hoc requests and partnering closely with them on cross-functional projects and process improvement
- Manage the People tool stack (HRIS, etc) and partner/vendor portfolio to ensure satisfactory service quality and ROI
- Lead research efforts on topics that are new for the team and important for the company (e.g,. global hiring guidelines, first hire in a new geography, etc.)
- Define and help the team achieve operational goals and KPIs
What we're looking for:
- You have at least 3 years of experience in consulting or a fast-paced, high-growth environment in an Operations, Project Management, or People/HR role or similar
- You’ve had exposure to People/HR topics and are passionate about this space
- You are a strategic thinker and excel at identifying root causes to complex problems – and then designing practical solutions to solve them
- You consider yourself a generalist and love hopping from one topic to the next
- You have proven experience managing complex, cross-functional projects
- You feel equally happy doing strategic and hands-on work, and are not afraid of routine processes or getting your hands dirty
- You have a track record of successfully managing/influencing key stakeholders
- You are highly analytical and are great with Excel
- You are methodical in your work and have exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail
- You are a team player
- Ideally, you speak French
Benefits (specifics depend on geography)
- Competitive compensation
- 25 days of annual leave in addition to public holidays + Pipio day (our anniversary!)
- Flexible hours and possibility to work from wherever you want (we're fully remote)
- Private health insurance (100% coverage)
- New, top-of-market company equipment
- Generous work from home stipend
- Optional WeWork All Access membership
- Annual Learning & Development budget
- Free Headspace subscription
- Regular team retreats and events
Impact first.
Team next.
Accept reality.
Propose solutions.
Win with grit.
Be proactively candid, with yourself and others.
Love the particular.
Own it.
Create positive energy.
Maybe, even have fun.
