• Build & Deliver:

  • Handle day-to-day People operations, keeping contracts, policies, and systems organized, fair, and audit-ready.

  • Design and deliver career progression frameworks and learning programs that enable individual and team development.

• Connect & Belong:

  • Enhance onboarding to ensure every new joiner feels connected, informed, and set up for success.

  • Support culture and belonging initiatives that reflect our values and strengthen connection across distributed teams.

• Proven track record as an individual contributor who enjoys being hands-on, executing projects, and collaborating in cross-functional teams.

• Solid knowledge of HR practices, labor laws, and compliance.

• Detail-oriented and organized - you genuinely enjoy managing contracts, systems, and processes that keep things running smoothly.

• Skilled with Slack, G Suite, Figma, HiBob, Ashby, or similar tools.

• Strong communicator who can build trust and alignment across distributed teams.

• Bilingual or native German speaker, with excellent English communication skills.

• Proactive, adaptable, and eager to create meaningful impact from day one.
