About the role
- Employee Lifecycle Management: You ensure an excellent experience for our employees. You handle all administrative steps – from the initial contract and changes during employment to respectful offboarding and the preparation of employment references.
- Payroll & Benefits: You keep the numbers under control. You maintain all salary and benefit data and work closely with our external partners on payroll preparation. Your goal: 100% accuracy and punctuality.
- Onboarding Support: You share responsibility for a perfect start at tonies. You coordinate our buddy program and newcomer meetings so that new Tonies feel welcome from day one.
- HR Systems & Data Quality: As a power user of our HRIS (Personio), you ensure our digital personnel files are always up to date and comply with all legal requirements.
- Processes & Innovation: You enjoy improving things. You question existing workflows, reduce manual effort, and leverage automation and AI to make our work more efficient.
- Knowledge Management: You make sure important information is easy to find. You expand our self-service resources so the team can find answers to HR questions quickly and independently.
Requirements
- HR background: You bring solid experience in HR administration and are well versed in labor law and employee lifecycle processes.
- Confidence in Payroll: Terms like social security and company pension scheme (bAV) are familiar to you; you know what matters in payroll processing.
- Interest in Tech & Tools: You enjoy working with modern HR systems. If you already know Personio, that’s a plus — otherwise you quickly learn new tools.
- Structured & Composed: Even when things get busy, you keep an overview. You work very conscientiously and can confidently juggle multiple tasks and deadlines.
- Empathy & Service Mindset: You see yourself as an internal service provider and enjoy supporting colleagues competently.
- Problem-Solver Mentality: You don’t wait — you proactively tackle issues and enjoy continuously improving processes.
- Communication: As we work internationally, you communicate confidently in German and English.
Benefits
- Mobility: Choose the option that suits you best — a Deutschlandticket Job for unlimited public transport, a monthly €50 contribution for an office parking space, a leased bicycle, or a remote work subsidy.
- Security: Benefit from employer contributions to capital-forming payments (vermögenswirksame Leistungen), a company pension plan (bAV), and occupational disability insurance.
- Rest & Time Off: Enjoy 30 days of paid annual leave plus three additional days off such as Rosenmontag, Christmas Eve, and New Year’s Eve. After one year of employment, you can also take up to 10 "toniecation days" (unpaid leave days).
- Continuous Learning: Take advantage of our internal and external training opportunities and an individual learning budget to continuously expand your skills.
- Language Learning & Relaxation Made Easy: Improve your communication skills with the Babbel language app and find relaxation through access to the Calm meditation app.
- Discounts: Enjoy attractive discounts across our entire tonies product range.
