Over the last 18 months, Whalebone has grown from 80 to 170 people. We’ve doubled not only our headcount, but also the number of leaders, and expanded globally. Today, around 30% of our team works across different countries, with 70% based in Brno.
During this growth phase, we focused on building solid HR foundations - core processes, frameworks, and ways of working. Now, we’re entering the next chapter. We want to go deeper into performance management, development conversations, leadership support, and building a culture of cooperation and expertise across global teams.
That’s why we’re looking for an HR Business Partner who enjoys working closely with leaders and teams, and who wants to help shape how Whalebone grows, not just how it hires.
Being an HRBP at Whalebone means wearing more than one hat. We’re looking for someone who wants to bring ideas, shape solutions, and see their work used by colleagues across the company.

- Proactive HR counselling and advisory support to leaders across all HR areas, with a strong focus on: team member relations, organizational structure, performance and development discussions, engagement, retention, and culture
- Day-to-day operational HR support and implementation of HR plans aligned with business goals
- Equipping leaders with the tools, knowledge, and guidance they need to manage their teams effectively (including employment law basics)
- Building strong partnerships with managers to support engagement and healthy team dynamics
- Close cooperation with the HR team based in Brno
Who we're looking for
At least 2 years of experience in an HRBP or similar role in a scale up/start up environment in tech, telco, or sales
- Fluent spoken and written English
- A proactive communication style (many of your stakeholders will be in different locations)
- Ability to work independently and take ownership
- A positive, friendly, and diplomatic approach, sense of humour definitely helps
Why Whalebone
- Your work will directly influence how Whalebone grows, develops leaders, and supports its people
- You’ll work with teams in global organization
- You’ll have space to create and influence HR practices and turn ideas into reality
- You’ll be part of a collaborative HR & Office team that values trust, partnership, and continuous learning

You can expect:
- 3 interview rounds (including meeting the whole HR team and some of your future stakeholders)
- A short practice case study
