About the role

  • You'll be an architect of HR Operations, with full ownership to design, automate, and scale.
  • You’ll design and own all core HR processes end-to-end: onboarding, offboarding, contracts, HRIS, benefits, compliance
  • You’ll lead our HRIS migration, evaluate, select, and implement a system that fits our needs
  • You’ll create structures that work for a remote-first, international team
  • You’ll review and update company policies and guide managers on People Operations topics
  • You’ll handle labor laws, audits, and make sure the company stays out of legal hot water
  • You’ll analyze the company needs and select the most suitable tools, create new processes and procedures
  • You’ll automate day-to-day work, enabling the whole team to focus on our most important asset: The People
  • You’ll use AI where it makes sense - not as a buzzword, but as a daily tool
  • You’ll build AI into the People service portfolio: think AI-assisted onboarding, smart self-service, automated employee support
  • You’ll build clean data foundations from day one
  • You’ll create reporting that leadership uses to make decisions
  • You’ll be the go-to person for our team across the entire employee lifecycle
  • You’ll design an employee experience that makes people want to stay

Requirements

  • Proven track record of designing and leading People/HR processes or projects.
  • Experience managing tool migrations (e.g. HiBob or similar HRIS platforms).
  • Hands-on experience building HR processes across the full employee lifecycle, not only maintaining existing ones.
  • Previous work experience in a fully remote setup.
  • Daily use of AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT, Claude, Notion AI or similar) - this is a must, not a nice-to-have.
  • Highly structured and able to work autonomously without constant guidance.
  • Strong, clear, and empathetic communication skills.
  • Preference for remote-first ways of working.
  • Fluency in English
  • Fluency in German.
Benefits
  • Improve and/or rebuild processes from scratch that hundreds of people will use

  • Direct impact: Your work directly shapes how F11 scales
