# Talent Operations at Conduct

- **Company:** Conduct
- **Location:** London, United Kingdom
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** onsite
- **Posted:** 2026-06-16
- **Last confirmed live:** 2026-09-11
- **Apply:** https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/conduct/34f3b9bf-a103-45b0-8eab-795838fe3b2d

## Job description

TL;DR: You'll own the entire employee experience at Conduct, from the moment someone signs an offer to the day they leave, and everything in between. We're scaling fast and you're the person who makes sure the people infrastructure keeps up, without us ever feeling like a big company

## Why Conduct

We believe the world's largest companies should move at the speed of their ideas, not the speed of the decade-old systems they run on. Today they don't. Every process change, every new product line runs into SAP systems layered with decades of custom code and complexity no human mind can fully comprehend. New requirements take months to ship, system migrations cost $100M+ and years of pain. We're building the AI operating system that absorbs this complexity and gives enterprises back their speed and ambition. Major enterprises already trust us with their most critical systems, we've closed game-changing SI partnerships, just raised a $60M Series A, and demand is outpacing what we can service. We're a small, talent-dense team doing our life's work out of London and NYC. Extreme ownership, high velocity, low-ego collaboration. What you build here shapes the company and how the world's largest companies operate. We sponsor visas and are convinced diverse teams build better products, so we especially encourage underrepresented groups in tech to reach out.

## What you'll own

The full employee lifecycle at Conduct: onboarding, day-to-day operations, offboarding, and everything that makes working here feel exceptional. You'll be the person the team relies on to make things run smoothly, and the person who proactively spots what needs fixing before anyone else notices. In practice:

- Own all People Operations functions: benefits administration, visa and right-to-work processes, policy documentation, and anything else that keeps us compliant and running well
- Manage our HRIS and payroll platforms, keeping employee data accurate, up to date, and audit-ready
- Run a seamless onboarding experience for every new joiner, and make sure offboarding is handled with the same care
- Continuously improve and automate people processes. If something is manual and repetitive, you find a way to make it scalable
- Support the broader team on ad hoc requests, internal comms, and employee experience initiatives that make Conduct a place people want to stay

Who we hire This role calls for someone who is highly organised, genuinely proactive, and takes real pride in getting the details right. You don't wait to be asked, you spot what needs doing and do it. You're comfortable with ambiguity, can hold multiple priorities at once, and bring warmth and professionalism to every interaction with the team. In practice that tends to look like:

- 2+ years in a People Operations, HR, or administrative role, ideally at a fast-growing tech company or startup. You know what good looks like in a lean, high-velocity environment.
- Highly organised and detail-oriented. You manage competing priorities without things slipping through the cracks.
- A builder's mindset. You don't just maintain existing processes, you improve them. You're always looking for ways to make things faster, cleaner, and more scalable.
- Strong communicator. You interact with everyone from new graduates to senior founders, and you get the register right every time.

## About Conduct

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Conduct provides an AI operating system that understands, operates, and modernizes complex legacy enterprise software systems, starting with SAP.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: London, United Kingdom
- **Founded**: 2024
- **Founders**: Jan Philipp Haas (Co-Founder & CEO), Henry Thompson (Co-Founder & CTO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Enterprise AI / Software Development
- **Target customers**: Large enterprises running complex legacy ERP systems (SAP), IT operations teams, and consulting firms managing system migrations.
- **Mission statement**: "To make IT the innovation powerhouse of every company."

## Products & Services
- **Conduct AI Platform**: An AI operating system that reads and understands custom code, dependencies, and configurations across enterprise systems. It enables system migration (e.g., S/4HANA) planning 83% faster, reduces delivery time for new features by 50%, and cuts manual system analysis by 80%. Users can "chat directly with their systems" to resolve major business issues in days instead of months.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Total Funding**: ~$72M ($12M Seed in Oct 2025, $60M Series A in June 2026)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Index Ventures (co-lead), Iconiq (co-lead), SAP (strategic investor), Creandum, Lucid Capital, Booom.
- **Key Customers**: Daimler Truck, Heidelberg Materials, DHL.
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew 240% YoY (to ~35 employees), actively hiring in London and NYC. Backed by top-tier VCs and a strategic investment from SAP itself.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Deep Moat**: Solves the "opacity problem" of legacy enterprise code. Decades of customization have made systems like SAP indecipherable to humans and AI agents alike. Conduct's ability to read and understand this code is a foundational layer that competitors cannot easily replicate.
- **Strategic Backing**: Having SAP as an investor is a powerful signal and provides unique market access.
- **Founding Team**: Founders are former Palantir employees, known for building mission-critical, high-complexity data systems.

## Strategic Focus
- **Current Priority**: Expanding engineering and go-to-market teams to scale the platform from its current customer base (Daimler, Heidelberg, DHL) to the broader Fortune 500. The company is also building a US presence (NYC office).
- **Direction**: To become the "AI operating system" for all enterprise software, moving beyond SAP to other legacy systems, and enabling AI agents to operate on any enterprise system.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture & Team**: "Every team member is a builder at heart." The team includes alumni from Palantir, G-Research, Sana, and Sequoia. They describe the work as "one of the most complex problems of our generation."
- **Work Policy**: Hybrid offices in London (HQ) and New York City (NYC).
- **Benefits**: Top-of-market pay, tax-efficient share options, three meals a day, private health and dental, ClassPass, Cycle to Work scheme, pension, and two company offsites a year.
- **Engineering Culture**: Deeply technical and product-oriented. Open roles include Product Engineer, Backend Engineer, ABAP AI Developer, and AI Operations Engineer.
