WHY WORK AT JOE & THE JUICE

JOE & THE JUICE is a people centric food and beverage company built around culture, not just juice, sandwiches, coffee, and much more. When joining us, you step into a high energy community where the music is loud, the bar is your stage, and your personality matters as much as your skills.

We believe in four simple virtues that shape everything we do:

Positive Attitude
Inclusion
Social Ties
Growth

For us, this means that when you choose a cup half-full mindset and welcome people form every background, build real friendships across the bar by creating great guest experiences, and use every shift as a chance to learn something new, you become more than just a juicer; like us, you continue to search and mind purpose and meaning in what you do.

From your first day, you’ll be part of an international network of juicers who support each other, celebrate wins together, and push each other to grow. You will learn by doing, move through a clear Moneyball career path, and be part of a company where most leaders have earned their stripes behind the bar (fun fact: over 75% of our employees started as Juicers!).

If you love fast paced service, music, people, and the idea of turning a job into a lifestyle, JOE can become a place to build skills, friendships, and a career that can take you across cities, countries, and roles.

YOUR MISSION

JOE & THE JUICE is building a dedicated People Technology capability. Are you the one leading it?

As Head of People Technology, you will take full ownership of our entire People tech stack, from Core HR to Talent Acquisition, Performance, Engagement and Compensation systems. You will be the single point of accountability for making sure our systems are connected, governed and adopted across a global, fast-moving organisation. The role combines strategic ownership of the systems roadmap with hands-on delivery, ensuring a single, trusted source of truth for people data across the business.

You will lead efforts in automating core HR processes and actively leveraging AI for scale, optimising the way we work and translating business needs into digital solutions. As part of a wider investment in the people tech area, one of your first and most impactful projects will be leading our HRIS selection and implementation.

As the foundation of a brand-new capability, there's real scope to shape how we work, mature the stack and grow a team over time, starting with a Project Manager to help you succeed with selecting and integrating a new HRIS. This is exactly the kind of build-from-the-ground-up opportunity that fits how we do things at JOE.
