Requirements
• Startup or scale-up experience: You have worked in a high-growth environment where priorities change quickly, the bar keeps rising, and nobody hands you a playbook. You may have previous Chief of Staff experience or ran your own agency. • Agentic: You are a doer. You have been pulled into important problems, taken ownership outside your lane, and figured things out without waiting for permission. • Regulated experience: You have worked in a heavily regulated environment where sloppy people processes create real risk. This doesn’t scare you. • Systems thinker: You look past the immediate people problem and fix the system that created it. • AI-native: You use AI tools to move faster, improve quality, reduce admin, and increase your own output. • Clockspeed: You can get dangerous in a new area quickly. • Range: You can run several important workstreams at once without dropping the ball. • Networker: You already know exceptional people you would be excited to bring into Bolt. • OUR CULTURAL STANDARDS • We aim to make this your life’s work. This should be the most challenging, most rewarding role of your life. Accordingly, these are the core cultural standards to which we hold ourselves & our team-members: • 1. Belief in the mission: We will have served 100 million patients by the end of 2035 and we transform the life of most patients who join. We have a lot of work to do. We are obsessed with our patients and are dedicated to the mission. • 2. Unwavering integrity: We are at the frontier, so we often live in ambiguity with no trodden path. When we can’t look to others for guidance, we must maintain impeccable ethics and unwavering integrity. • 3. Only the paranoid survive: Bad sh*t is coming. By joining us, you’re choosing to sail straight towards the storms with unhesitating conviction. However much we’ve already done, however far we’ve already come — it’s still Day 1 and all our work is ahead of us. • 4. If we’re average we fail: We are only interested in “insanely great”, a focus on the quality of our execution that in everyday life would be considered pathological. We have a dedication to excellence and reject incompetence. • 5. Commitment to candor: That which can be destroyed by the truth should be. You get full transparency from the company and the company expects full transparency from you. We never say anything about someone that we wouldn’t say to them directly. We give feedback with love and do not need to protect people from fleeting physical sensations. • 6. A maniacal sense of urgency: We execute at an intensity that most people think is impossible. Speed is critical and we need things done yesterday. We all work very hard and in such a competitive world there really is no other way to win. • 7. Enduring frugality: We are frugal. We hate being wasteful and we are anti-luxury. A culture of cheapness keeps us young. We spend our cash wisely & carefully — in a way that would make our grandmas proud. • 8. Bulldozing barriers: The world is malleable and we shape it. We truly believe this and act accordingly. We are relentlessly resourceful and are at the mercy of no-one but ourselves. You’ll be shocked how capable you are and how much you can achieve. • 9. Keep your head down: We’re boring people doing exciting work. We don’t chase short-term status — we ignore short-term dopamine hits and focus on what matters. Outsiders will underestimate us and we revel in that. • 10. The power of focus: We live in a world of power laws and we cannot overestimate the unimportance of practically everything. Know your One Thing, and nail it. • 🎯 “You just build a fing amazing experience. Make each step amazing. Make every decision in the long term interest of the customer. Give the customer massively more value than you take.”
Responsibilities
• Talent acquisition: Own end-to-end hiring across Bolt Pharmacy: build pipelines, craft sharp job adverts, run tight processes, coordinate interviews, drive offers, and close exceptional candidates across all functions. • Sourcing and pipeline building: Build repeatable sourcing engines for critical roles. Map talent markets, work referrals, proactively outreach candidates, and keep warm pipelines ready before the business is desperate. • Operationalized Onboarding: Make sure new hires become productive quickly through strong onboarding. • People operations: Build and run the core people systems: onboarding, offboarding, contracts, employee records, payroll coordination, equity administration, HRIS/ATS hygiene, compliance workflows, and documentation. • Performance: Help managers retain strong performers, identify high-potential people, and address underperformance quickly and fairly. • Culture and standards: Reinforce high standards, urgency, ownership, radical candour, care, and low tolerance for mediocrity across every new hire and team. • Workforce planning: Stay close to growth plans, capacity needs, seasonal spikes, and locum requirements so headcount never becomes the bottleneck. • Locum and agency management: Own relationships with locum agencies and recruitment partners. • Operator: You are energised by being close to the work. You detest bureaucratic, back-office HR roles. • Talent acquisition: You have hired strong people across multiple functions and can point to candidates you hired who materially raised the bar. • Judgment: You know how to spot real ability, drive, and ownership. You are not easily fooled by credentials, titles, or corporate jargon. • Sourcing chops: You can build pipeline yourself, not just manage inbound applications or agencies. You prefer hard-charging outbound headhunting and know this is the only way to get A players. • People ops: You have owned or helped build core people systems such as onboarding, offboarding, contracts, employee records, HRIS/ATS hygiene, payroll coordination, documentation, and compliance workflows. • Performance: You are comfortable helping managers navigate performance issues, spot retention risks, and jump onto underperformance. • Ownership: You have helped build or protect a high-performance culture where strong people feel challenged and supported. • Sharpness: You are organised, detail-oriented, and able to build simple systems that enable the org to move faster without getting sloppy. • Leadership trust: You are comfortable working directly with senior leaders, including challenging them when needed. • UK employment law: You understand the fundamentals of UK employment law, including contracts, employee records, right-to-work checks, and people-process compliance.
