Your Mission and Tasks

Our HR department is realigning during a restructuring process. We are looking for a responsible, empathetic, and team-oriented person to professionally and personally lead our small HR team, building and developing HR through this transformation phase and beyond.

Your workday is versatile and dynamic: you collaborate closely with various stakeholders and are both administratively and operationally active. In this key role, you will take holistic responsibility and shape the entire Employee Experience:

  • Strategic Partnership: Act as a trusted partner for the leadership team and managers, relieving them in operational business and actively accompanying organizational change processes.
  • Personnel Administration & Payroll: You will be responsible for the operative implementation of the entire Employee Lifecycle and ensure a smooth, legally compliant personnel administration, including end-to-end payroll and social insurances.
  • Digitalization & Data: Drive the digitalization of HR systems in a user-centered manner and use people analytics as a basis for informed management decisions.
  • Cultural Development: Strengthen the appreciative corporate culture and embed important initiatives such as modern feedback systems and clear career paths into everyday life.
  • HR Communication: Co-responsible for clear, consistent, and legally sound HR communication internally and externally, ensuring communication is clear, empathetic, and effective.
  • Team Leadership: Lead and develop the HR department professionally and personally, establishing it as a strong, strategic unit.

Your Profile and Expertise

You convince us with the following experience:

  • Career Path: Solid HR training (e.g. HR Specialist) and 7 to 12 years of comprehensive experience in operational personnel management and people operations.
  • Law & Administration: Strong routine in payroll and security in employment law and local social insurance systems.
  • Systems & Processes: Proficient use of modern HRIS systems (ideally Abacus), focusing on high data quality and a passion for process automation.
  • Consultation Experience: Hands-on experience consulting leaders and employees on personnel and operational issues. You know how to accompany change processes from HR.

Personal Qualities

Even in hectic and dynamic times, you keep your head and know how to react to different situations with a healthy mix of spontaneity and professionalism. You are characterized by high trustworthiness and practiced discretion. With natural diplomacy, you combine steadfastness with sensitivity and foster balance over confrontation. A strong service orientation shapes your demeanor: approachable, helpful, solution-oriented, and reliable.

Culture and Benefits

An appreciative working atmosphere and regular team exchange are key success factors for us. Therefore, you benefit from:

  • Flexibility and independence in shaping your work.
  • Varied and innovative projects with real added value.
  • Flexible working hours & family-friendly corporate culture.
  • Individual development and further training opportunities.
  • A collegial, competent team with strong cohesion and high willingness to help.
