Your Responsibilities

Recruiting & Talent Acquisition

• Oversee the entire hiring process: from job postings to applicant management to contract negotiations. Enhance our employer brand and build talent pools for future positions.

Onboarding & Offboarding

• Design and conduct structured onboarding programs to integrate new employees effectively. Manage the offboarding process, including exit interviews, feedback evaluations, and process improvements.

Employee Development & Culture

• Develop and implement training and development programs to foster sustainable growth among team members. Actively shape a positive corporate culture by promoting team‑building activities, a strong feedback culture, and high employee satisfaction.

Strategic Expansion of the HR Function

• Gradually build an HR team, including recruiting, onboarding, and developing new colleagues. Collaborate closely with management and other departments to devise a future‑oriented people strategy.

Qualifications

Education & Experience

• Completed degree (e.g., in Business Administration, Psychology, HR Management) or comparable qualification. Several years of professional experience in HR, ideally in a fast‑paced environment (startup, tech company, etc.).

Professional Competencies

• Solid knowledge of labor and social security law. Experience in recruiting and employee development, ideally with a focus on employer branding and cultural initiatives.

Perspective

Our interview plan

• Application
• Cultural fit interview (40 min): A conversation about how you work, what motivates you, and what you’re looking for. Expect CV highlights, your “why,” and time for your questions.

• Interview with CEO (30–45 min): A discussion on vision, impact, and how the role connects to company priorities.
• On‑site visit: Meet the team at our office and collaborate on a real challenge similar to the work you’d do here. You’ll get a clear feel for the environment and ways of working.
• External interview: Speak with an external partner or advisor for an independent perspective on your skills and fit.
