Role: Business Operations Manager
Location: 5 days in office, London, White City

Flatpay UK is scaling fast, and we’re hiring a generalist to work directly with the Head of Operations, owning the problems that cut across collections, support, KYC and onboarding, retention and people operations.

Responsibilities

Run cross-team projects end to end: scope, plan, deliver, and measure whether they worked

Build automation with Zapier, Slack workflows and Claude Code so teams spend less time on manual work
Help redesign our people processes and HR systems so employee lifecycle events run with far less admin
Build the trackers, dashboards and reporting that leadership uses to make decisions
Bring a commercial lens to everything: cost to serve, business cases, and prioritising by impact
Act as a second pair of hands for the Head of Operations and as an escalation route, getting into the detail to scale and professionalise the Operations function

Skills & Attributes

Ability to run multiple workstreams at once and close every loop
