Working arrangements Unity operates an agile working policy. For this role, we expect a minimum of 60% (3 days per week) of working time to be based on-site at Unity Theatre. You are, of course, welcome to work on-site more than this if you prefer. Please note: due to the nature of a venue-based organisation, you will be expected to work outside of core hours from time to time (including occasional evenings and weekends) to meet the needs of the organisation.

Theatregoing and sector engagement Unity staff champion theatre and the work of our artists and partners. Where appropriate, this includes attending theatre productions at Unity and in the wider sector to stay connected to current work, strengthen relationships, and build insight into audiences and practice. Staff are offered complimentary tickets for performances at Unity (subject to availability). From time to time, staff may also be invited to attend opening nights or partner productions elsewhere, where this supports organisational relationships and learning. Attendance is encouraged where it supports the role and organisational priorities but will be balanced with workload and operational needs.

Theatregoing and sector engagement Unity staff champion theatre and the work of our artists and partners. Where appropriate, this includes attending theatre productions at Unity and in the wider sector to stay connected to current work, strengthen relationships, and build insight into audiences and practice. Staff are offered complimentary tickets for performances at Unity (subject to availability). From time to time, staff may also be invited to attend opening nights or partner productions elsewhere, where this supports organisational relationships and learning. Attendance is encouraged where it supports the role and organisational priorities but will be balanced with workload and operational needs.

About Us Perk (formerly TravelPerk) is the intelligent platform for travel and spend management.

By eliminating this shadow work that wastes hours, erodes morale, and saps innovation, we're on a mission to power real work, with real impact. We're trusted by more than 10,000 companies worldwide, including Wise, On Running, Breitling, and Fabletics, and we're tackling the 7 hours of lost productivity per employee each week, a $1.7 trillion problem. Founded in 2015, Perk has grown into a global company of more than 1,800 people across 12 offices globally, with headquarters in London and Boston. We combine innovation, control, and simplicity to transform how businesses work and how people feel at work. At Perk, we're driven by our values, like being an owner, delivering a 7-star experience, and working as one team. We value curiosity, purpose, and mindset, not just knowledge, to unlock the power in your potential. Our talent team brings together leading minds from the travel and SaaS industries, representing over 70 countries. If you're excited about having a real impact and shaping how millions of people experience work, we'd love you on the team. Visit to learn more. About the role As Perk continues to scale globally and strengthen its presence across Europe and the US, ensuring labour law, security compliance and consistent people related governance across entities has become a strategic priority. The People Operations Compliance Partner plays a critical role in translating employment law, regulatory requirements, and internal policies into practical, scalable ways of working that protect the business while enabling a strong employee experience. This role supports compliance across all countries where Perk operates, adopting a pragmatic, risk based, and business aligned approach that reflects how the company actually operates. Acting as a key bridge between People Operations, Legal, and Security, this role coordinates cross functional compliance, policy, and audit initiatives, ensuring clarity of ownership, visibility of risk, and follow through on actions. Rather than enforcing compliance in isolation, the role provides transparency and informed recommendations to leadership by mapping compliance requirements, assessing associated risks, and enabling risk aware decision making. Importantly, this role is execution focused. Beyond identifying and planning compliance initiatives, the People Operations Compliance Partner is responsible for driving them to completion: coordinating internal stakeholders, external counsels, and providers to ensure outcomes are delivered, embedded into day to day operations, and sustained over time. The role represents the People team in labour law, compliance, audit, and policy related matters, ensuring legislative changes and regulatory obligations are proactively implemented across entities. While this is not an employee relations case handling role, it ensures the frameworks, processes, and governance mechanisms are in place so that the wider People team can operate consistently, compliantly, and with confidence. This position requires a high degree of autonomy, prioritisation, and ownership. The successful candidate will be comfortable balancing strategic assessment with hands on execution, progressing work independently, and operating effectively in a complex, fast growing environment. Key Responsibilities 1. Labour Law & Compliance Coordination Act as the main liaison between Legal and People Operations on all employment law and compliance matters. Translate legal and regulatory updates across Europe and the US into practical, business oriented solutions that align with our company's ways of working, keeping operational guidance simple and easily actionable by non legal audiences. Maintain a global compliance dashboard that visually tracks compliance status across all active countries, highlighting actions and potential risks. Conduct independent risk assessments when new requests, regulations, or internal projects require compliance evaluation. 2. Compliance Programs, Audits & Governance Lead and execute compliance audits and compliance driven initiatives globally, including audits, remediation actions, and implementation of new compliance requirements, ensuring comprehensive reviews and actionable follow ups that reflect both legal compliance and company values. Support audits led by the Security team such as ISO and SOC2, providing all necessary data and evidence from the People team side for the success of these audits and certifications. Support People Operations owned statutory and regulatory audits, including but not limited to R&D certification audits and non financial reporting requirements (e.g. EINF in Spain). This includes preparing documentation, coordinating responses with external auditors, and enabling managers and employees selected for audit interviews. Support M&A related employment due diligence and harmonisation work, including entity merges, and post transaction integration activities coordinating across Legal, Payroll, and People Partners. Take a hands on role in audit preparation and delivery, including evidence gathering, documentation review, stakeholder coordination, and follow up actions. Partner with Legal, Total Rewards and Payroll to ensure compliance with upcoming frameworks such as the EU Pay Transparency Directive, AI Act, and time tracking regulations, and driving actions arising from legal updates. 3. Policy Partnership & Governance Partner with Legal and Security to review, draft, and roll out new or revised policies. Maintain a policy and process roadmap by assessing compliance risk and impact, and make recommendations to internal People Operations processes to ensure our standard operating procedures are risk informed, and in line with local legislation, internal policies and company practices. Contribute to ensuring all employee facing policies are clear, accessible, and aligned with company culture and tone. Coordinate the maintenance of compliant contract templates, offer letters, and employee handbooks in partnership with Legal and external counsels. Drive the implementation of compliance and security related initiatives that require cross functional coordination, operational execution, and ongoing monitoring. 4. Cross Functional Partnership & Governance Enablement Serve as an escalation point for the People Operations team and other People team functions when there is uncertainty around policies, compliance, or employment law. Problem solve complex cases by consulting with Legal and external counsels, ensuring both compliance and employee fairness. Act as the primary point of contact for people related compliance and employment questions raised by Revenue teams coming from customer RFPs, due diligence questionnaires, or client audits. Coordinate with Legal and other subject matter experts to provide accurate, compliant, and timely responses, and proactively identify patterns in incoming requests to improve enablement including documentation, FAQs, or automation (e.g. chatbot content) that reduces repeat queries and accelerates response times. Develop and deliver enablement initiatives, such as training and internal guides, for People team functions on labour law and compliance essentials and relevant insights from recent case studies. Foster strong partnerships with stakeholders across Legal, Security, Procurement, Payroll, Total Rewards, and People Partners among others. What we're looking for 5+ years of experience in People Operations, Employment Law, HR Compliance, or a closely related function, ideally in a multi country or international environment. Strong working knowledge of European employment law frameworks, with Spain as a priority jurisdiction. Experience in additional countries (e.g. UK, Germany, Netherlands) and/or exposure to US employment compliance is a strong plus, but not mandatory. Hands on experience supporting or coordinating compliance initiatives such as audits, entity changes, policy rollouts, or regulatory implementations, from planning to following through and closing actions.
