CharlieHR

Founded in 2015, we build HR software and offer services for small teams and businesses. Our software automates administrative tasks like one-click onboarding, time-off management, and centralized document storage within a team database. It also includes performance review tools, integrated perks and benefits (with access to over 30,000 deals), and clear guidance on HR policies.

We also offer one-to-one support services, “Charlie Advice” and “Charlie Plus.” These are delivered by CIPD qualified advisors who help with documentation, UK employment law compliance, and complex HR situations. Our software is GDPR-compliant and ISO 27001-certified. We currently serve over 3,000 small companies and startups. We also offer Charlie Recruit, an Applicant Tracking System.

Our mission is to make HR effortless for every small company. We believe businesses that focus on their culture will outperform those that don’t. We aim to combine the efficiency of software with human expertise.

Our core values for team members are: getting uncomfortable, giving energy, pushing for results, and being humble.

We are a team of around 40 people. We operate with a hybrid-first approach, with an office in London and team members working remotely across the UK.

We expect employees to attend 6 full-company meetups in London annually. We also allow team members to work outside the UK for up to 90 days per year, from any time zone. We aim to build a work culture that supports healthy and fulfilling lives for our team.

We offer flexible working hours, giving you ownership over your work schedule. We also operate a 9-day fortnight, so you get every second Friday off.

Team members have access to our London office space, including wider Uncommon locations. We provide an annual ‘Work Your Way’ fund of £750 to support your learning and development, flexible working needs, and travel for London meet-ups.

New parents receive Enhanced Equal Parental Leave, which includes ten weeks of fully paid leave and an additional ten weeks paid at 50% of their salary. Our wellbeing support includes bookable ‘Personal Days,’ access to Spill, and a £30 monthly wellbeing budget.

We maintain a transparent Career Framework for progression, and we also give you an annual £300 budget for nomad working opportunities.
