People Manager (f / m / d)

At hear.com, we believe that everyone should hear well to live well . Our mission is to bring high quality hearing care to anyone, anywhere, and to change our customers’ lives through better hearing.

As part of the world’s fastest-growing hearing care company, we’re on an ambitious journey to scale, aiming to double our South African business in the next two years and become the go-to hearing care company in the country. To support this growth, we’re hiring a People Manager , a new foundational role and key part of our leadership team.

This is not a traditional HR role. We’re looking for someone who’s ready to build, not maintain. Someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, has a nose for great talent, and wants to shape the way people are hired, developed, and supported in a purpose-driven business.

You’ll work directly with the Country Head, Reinette, and alongside other leaders to ensure we have the team and culture in place to scale. Your initial focus will be on recruiting top talent and setting the groundwork for performance and people systems that help our team thrive.

Responsibilities

• Lead recruitment for our team of Customer Consultants and other key roles, ensuring we bring in A-players who raise the bar
• Support the build-out of our Partner Entrepreneurship Program , helping recruit audiologists to support the growth and expansion of our audiology partner providers
• Lay the foundation for strong people practices by refining and setting up systems for performance, growth, and talent management
• Shape and reinforce our team culture , ensuring we hire, reward, and develop people in line with our values and mission
• Act as a strategic advisor to the Country Head and leadership team on people-related decisions and initiatives
• Collaborate with international peers to bring global best practices to the South African context
• Help build a business that people love to work for and that delivers meaningful impact
