In 4 years of existence, we’ve managed to :

Make ourselves known as a groundbreaking accounting and financial software for small businesses and their accountants

Raise a total of €225 millions, including from Sequoia, the famous fund from the Silicon Valley who invested early in companies like Google, Facebook, Airbnb, Stripe, Paypal and much more...

Grow from 7 cofounders to 650+ happy Pennylaners : we’re now recognized as one of the greatest places to work in France (and also remotely), with a 4.6/5 rating on Glassdoor.

Build an international environment with more than 25 nationalities, with a strong remote-friendly culture, where 30% of the employees are already working from all parts of Europe

Already more than 350,000 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and over 4,500 accounting firms use Pennylane in France!

At Pennylane, we are reinventing how companies manage their finances - and that means striving for operational excellence and transforming our internal processes.

We are looking for an experienced People Analytics & Projects Specialist to join our People & Ops team and play a key role in structuring, analyzing, and optimizing our operations — well beyond traditional HR analytics.

You will report to the Head of People Operations and work closely with People, Finance, and business leadership teams in a true cross-functional business partner role.

Your responsibilities

- Shape and drive the internal operations data strategy (People, Finance, Ops), ensuring data reliability, consistency, and value-added exploitation

- Act as a data steward for all HR-related data: structure, maintain, and ensure the quality and integrity of people data across all HR systems and processes

- Lead or support the implementation and optimization of HRIS processes, workflows, and data flows (e.g., onboarding, off-boarding, organizational changes, internationalization, etc.), collaborating with stakeholders to ensure robust and scalable solutions

- Design and deploy advanced dashboards and analyses to support strategic decision-making (organizational structure, headcount, international growth, operational performance, etc.)

- Challenge existing processes, identify optimization opportunities, and propose and implement data-driven or automated solutions

- Own recurring and ad hoc reporting for leadership teams: headcount, mobility, performance, compensation, compliance, etc. (including legally required reporting such as BDESE, Gender Equality Index, and more)

- Work closely with TA, HRBP and Dev teams to align our internal practices with best-in-class data/ops standards (data governance, data quality, automation)

- Foster a data-driven culture within the People & Ops teams

Your environment & tools

- Lucca (HRIS), Reflect (analytics), Figures (compensation benchmarking and salary review tool)

- Google Sheets / Excel (advanced)

- Potential to leverage other BI/data tools as needed (Looker, Tableau, SQL, etc.)

Why this role matters at Pennylane

- Broad autonomy over data/ops topics, with real latitude to challenge the status quo and innovate

- Company culture focused on ownership, transparency, and operational efficiency

- You will be the go-to person for data/ops within the People function, with the opportunity to upskill the team on these topics

Who we’re looking for

- 5+ years’ experience in data/ops, business intelligence, or transformation consulting (ideally in a tech, scale-up, or consulting environment)

- Strong data-driven mindset, with a passion for analysis, automation, and continuous process improvement

- Experience managing cross-functional projects, interfacing with diverse teams

- Advanced proficiency with Excel/Google Sheets, data visualization tools, and databases

- Experience with HRIS tools and the implementation or optimization of HR processes is a strong advantage

- Comfortable working with complex datasets, structuring reporting, and delivering analysis to varied audiences

- Rigorous, autonomous, and able to quickly ramp up on new topics (not necessarily an HR background)

- Fluent in French and English

This position can be based from our office in Paris or fully-remote from anywhere in France

Recruitment Process

- Screening call with Nathalie - Business Recruiter (30min, in visio)

- An interview with our Marine - VP People (1h, in visio)

- A Business Case to prepare at home and to present (1h, in visio)

- A final interview with Felix - COO & Eric - VP Strategy (30min, in visio)

We'll also encourage you to meet with your future team, during a 30min meeting (at the office or visio according to your preference)

What do we do to make your work life easier

You'll be able to work remotely from your country of residence, as long as it is in Europe and within a maximum time difference of two hours from the CET time zone

Wherever you are based, you will get 25 vacations days paid by Pennylane

You’ll have a competitive compensation package

You'll get company shares to enjoy a piece of the success story you're building with us

You’ll have a budget to turn your home into a more comfortable workspace, as well as a monthly allowance to work from a coworking space whenever you feel like it

️Through our partner Gymlib, you’ll have access to 8000 fitness spaces in Europe and more than 300 activities related to wellness

You’ll have access to Busuu to perfect your English or your French

You’ll get the latest Apple equipment

We are committed to regularly coming together for company events such as Tech Days (which bring remote Pennylaners together every 3 months) or our annual company seminar, fostering significant moments of cohesion for everyone.

If you are based in France, you will have a French contract following French regulation on top of the additional perks : 6 to 12 RTT, 5 weeks PTOs, lunch credits (Swile), Alan Blue healthcare cover and regular events in cities where Pennylaners are mostly presents (Lyon, Bordeaux, Nantes…)

We're working on providing those last advantages to our people based outside of France as well, but it can be quite more complex depending on different countries.

Who are we looking for ?

To thrive at Pennylane, you need :

-To speak English (level is assessed and appreciated according to the department you’re applying to)

-To be energized by an ever-shifting work environment

-To be highly collaborative (within your team or other stakeholders)

-Sufficiently experienced to prioritize business-led actions on your day to day activity

We know that some people are less likely to apply than others, if they don’t feel like they meet the full list of criteria.

If you’re hesitating, we encourage you to apply : who knows, it might be the start of a meaningful and long-lasting collaboration.

We also want to emphasize that we fully embrace diversity, equity and inclusion and that we’re doing our best to create a safe and inclusive environment.

We are committed to providing an equal employment opportunity regardless of gender, sexual orientation, origin, disabilities, or any other traits that make you who you are. If anything, diversity makes us a more fun place to work at.
