**About Us** ------------ Circle is building the world’s leading all\-in\-one platform for online communities. We make it possible for creators, coaches, educators, and businesses to bring together their audience with engaging discussions, live streams, events, chat, courses, and payments — all in one place, all under their own brand. We’re proud to be a fully remote company of around 200 (and growing!) team members from 30\+ countries around the world. We seek exceptional individuals around the world, set them up to do the best work of their lives, and in turn, create a meaningful impact in their own lives. We don't track hours, but we do manage for high expectations very closely. We collaborate across time zones, are highly async, and like to document a lot. Twice a year, we bring the whole company together in beautiful places around the world for our company offsites. So far, we’ve hosted offsites in Turkey, Portugal, Mexico, Thailand, Colombia, Italy, Ireland, and more, with still more to come! **About the role** ------------------ Circle isn't trying to become a 1,000\-person company. We're building something rarer — a team of around 350 highly skilled, highly motivated people who use leverage (including AI) to do work that most teams three times our size couldn't pull off. But here's the thing: we're only able to do that because we genuinely invest in our people. Not as a talking point. As a practice. That means the managers, systems, and culture have to actually work for the humans inside them — not just the business goals around them. That's where you come in. As a People Partner at Circle, you'll help us build and protect what makes this place work: managers who lead with both competence and care, programs that help people grow without adding bureaucracy, and a culture that stays strong because we're intentional about it — not just lucky. You'll be embedded with leaders across the business, working as a true partner — part coach, part architect, part trusted advisor. You'll make our managers better. You'll build programs that are simple, effective, and human. And you'll help us stay the kind of company people actually want to work at, not just because the perks are good, but because they feel seen, supported, and set up to do their best work. This is a full\-time, remote role based in the Americas. **What you'll be doing** ------------------------ * Coach and develop our managers, helping them show up for their teams through performance conversations, feedback, hard moments, and everything in between * Support the building and running of our Learning \& Development function — identifying real skill gaps and creating learning experiences that people genuinely find valuable * Own and evolve our people programs alongside the Head of People: performance management, career frameworks, leveling conversations, manager training — making them smarter, simpler, and more human over time * Stay close to team senti
