Jobbeschreibung

We are looking for an energetic and pragmatic HR professional who is ready to roll up their sleeves and take ownership of our human resources function. This pivotal role goes beyond maintaining processes – it is about building, shaping, and driving HR forward in a growing and international company.

You will be responsible for implementing, upgrading, and optimizing all HR operations – including payroll (managed by an external provider), administration, and talent attraction – while helping to raise our working culture to the next level. The HR Lead will directly oversee and collaborate with teams in London, Admin, and Recruiting. There is significant development work to be done, with plenty of room to leave your mark and bring your ideas to life.

This role requires a hands-on builder: someone who enjoys getting into the details, improving what doesn’t yet work perfectly, and setting up scalable solutions that match the needs of a high-growth technology company. The ideal candidate is a doer as much as a thinker – ready to dive in, experiment, and make things happen.

Key Responsibilities

Translate business strategy into concrete HR initiatives and make them work in practice. Act as a trusted partner to the leadership team, providing guidance and sparring on all HR-related topics. Drive the shift from an administrative HR setup to a proactive and business-oriented HR function.

• Build and execute pragmatic, effective talent acquisition strategies that deliver results
• Strengthen employer branding to position Teranode Group as a destination for top talent
• Ensure an engaging candidate journey with structured selection and onboarding that sets new hires up for success

Talent Management & Development

• Implement performance management approaches that are simple, transparent, and impactful
• Create learning and development opportunities that keep employees growing and motivated
• Establish a talent pipeline and succession planning to prepare the company for future growth
• Design competitive compensation and benefits programs that are fair, transparent, and in line with market standards
• Regularly benchmark and adjust where needed to ensure we stay competitive

Employee Relations & Culture

• Foster a positive, hands-on, and collaborative work environment that reflects our values

• Strong understanding of HR best practices, employment law, and compliance requirements
• Excellent leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence and connect at all levels
• Strategic mindset combined with a hands-on approach – able to design the concept and implement it yourself
• Good understanding of HRIS and/or other HR platforms; experience in the tech industry is a plus
