We’re on a mission to modernize insurance, making it simpler, more accessible, and customer-first. The insurance industry is a $1T market that has remained largely untouched by the digital revolution, and PolicyMe is here to change that. As a remote-first, Toronto-based startup with big ambitions, we’re looking for a People & Culture Generalist to help us build the future of insurance in Canada and beyond.

As our People & Culture Generalist, you’ll be at the center of our People team - you’ll own key processes and systems that ensure all our humans have a great employee experience from their first day to their last! You’ll support and improve our people programs across onboarding, performance, engagement, and day-to-day people operations. This is a great opportunity for someone who is extremely accountable, can work quickly but with intention, and cares deeply about building thoughtful experiences that help humans and teams perform at their best.

  • Manage all employee data within our People systems including onboarding, role changes, promotions, terminations and more — all with a focus on accuracy.
  • Own our onboarding and offboarding experiences, partnering closely with IT and Finance.
  • Support execution of performance reviews, engagement surveys, and company-wide people programs, including coordination, communications, and reporting.
  • Own coordination with our benefits provider and ensure employees are maximizing our program.
  • Fully own our company social events, including the planning and execution of our in-person company events (we bring our company together twice a year!), virtual and team events.
  • Manage our office - while we are remote-first, we have an office in downtown Toronto that many of us frequent on Thursdays. You’d be responsible for all support / coordination of office activities.
  • Annual gifting coordination, helping think through what will bring the most joy to our employees to celebrate the year and executing on the vision.
  • Serve as a trusted point of contact for employees and managers on HR inquiries.
  • Help deliver and continuously improve core people programs such as performance reviews, engagement initiatives, learning and development, and team culture initiatives.
  • Own metrics and reporting across all the areas you’re responsible for.
  • Support time sensitive projects and requests from the VP, People & Culture
  • 3+ years of experience in an HR, People Operations, or People & Culture role, ideally in a fast-paced startup or high-growth environment.
  • Strong knowledge of core HR practices across employee lifecycle management, people operations, and compliance.
  • Experience supporting people programs such as onboarding, performance management, engagement, and policy administration.
  • Someone with a ‘yes, I can help’ attitude, who will be there to support our People team as well as all our employees.
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities at once.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build trust across teams and levels.
  • Comfortable working with HR systems, documentation, and process improvement.
  • Sound judgment and discretion when handling sensitive and confidential information.
  • Nice to have: Experience using AI tools and workflow automations to improve efficiency, streamline processes, and support better decision-making.
  • Must be located in Toronto and willing to work in-office 1-2 days per week.
  • Generous PTO - 20 vacation days
  • A comprehensive benefits plan with premiums paid in full by PolicyMe
  • Investment in your professional development, including an L&D budget, AI tooling budget, performance reviews twice a year and ongoing feedback to ensure you reach your highest potential
  • An extremely high performing, low-ego, remote-first team that is truly disrupting an old industry
  • Option to work from home or our Toronto-based office (bonus: we cover the costs to bring all our employees in-person twice a year for experiential socials!)
  • Access to stock options based on performance
  • Compensation: The total target cash compensation for this role is $71,500–$88,000 CAD, based on experience. We’ll walk through the details together during the interview.
