Business Partner, Tech & Data

About us

We’re November Five. We’re makers. Doers, designers, strategists. Different backgrounds, one mindset. We say what we mean and do what we say.
Passion walks in the door; expertise evolves over time.
Feedback is direct. We’re hard on the work but soft on the people behind it.
As craftsmen and women across our core capabilities, our passion transcends our expertise, and the roles we assume are fluid. United in our drive to defy limits and move beyond, we collaborate deeply, always on the lookout for more allies.

About the job

As Business Partner, Tech & Data, you keep our internal operations running smoothly — across hardware, internal tooling, workflows/automation, spend control, and operational insights.

You’ll own the critical stuff: getting people set up fast, keeping tools clean and compliant, preventing “spend chaos”, automating what shouldn’t be manual, and turning messy ops data into dashboards people trust.

This is not a “be the expert in everything” role. It’s for someone with a deep sense for tech who loves supporting colleagues and brings structure, consistency, and a pragmatic “controller” mindset.

You report to the Head of Company Operations. Your main internal clients are all colleagues, HR/People, Finance/Ops, leads, and leadership.

What you’ll do

Internal hardware (end-user IT)

• Own tech onboarding: set people up for day 1 (device readiness, setup hygiene, practical guidance).
• Run inventory management end-to-end
• Troubleshoot device issues pragmatically and fast (and coordinate with vendors when needed).

Internal tooling & operations enablement

• Own subscription management.
• Manage seat management and access hygiene across tools.
• Own onboard/offboard flows across tooling.
• Drive knowledge base documentation that stays useful: short, searchable, and up-to-date.
• Support payment processing and budget management & controlling for internal tooling and operational spend.

Tooling, templates & workflow automation

• Own and evolve internal tooling, templates, and workflows.
• Build workflow automation that reduces manual work, prevents errors, and scales how we operate.

BI / Data ops for internal operations

• Handle data extraction and data cleanup (the full ETL pipeline) for operational data.
• Build and maintain dashboards / reporting that support company operations and decision making.
• Deliver ad-hoc analyses when needed.
