Job description

Our story

Space is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. Thousands of satellites launch every year, and the market behind them is booming — with Poland right in the middle of it, home to a fast-rising space sector.

Liftero is at the heart of this trend. We build propulsion systems for the thousands of spacecraft coming to orbit, with the ambition to become the global leader in satellite propulsion — the transport layer of the space economy. Our goal is clear: deploy 1,000 propulsion systems in space.

Our core product is BOOSTER, a non-toxic chemical propulsion system built from first principles for the NewSpace era. It has already been validated in space.

As a fast-scaling company, we combine agility with long-term ambition to serve the booming small-satellite market. Joining now means a front-row seat to space technology and real ownership over what we build.

Position Overview

We are hiring a Labor Law Specialist to enhance our HR administration and maintain high operational standards across the company.

You will act as a trusted in-house expert, advising our organization on compliance matters and ensuring our practices are well-structured and supportive. Your day-to-day focus will involve managing full personnel documentation, processing contract updates, maintaining HR systems, settling business travel expenses, and partnering on payroll workflows to provide reliable support to all employees.

• Document Management & Contracts: Maintaining accurate personnel files, as well as issuing, and coordinating all employment contracts and amendments.
• Employee Helpdesk & Advisory: Serving as the main point of contact for day-to-day employee inquiries regarding labor law, benefits, and HR policies.

• OHS & Medical Checks: Managing occupational health referrals, archiving medical certificates, and keeping track of mandatory health and safety training.
• GDPR Compliance: Overseeing data privacy standards in HR processes, ensuring full GDPR compliance across all employee documentation, records, and access rights.
• Benefits Management: Overseeing the day-to-day administration of non-financial benefits, managing employee enrollments/cancellations.

Is This You?
