The role

You’ll own how People Operations runs in every country we operate in, today and as we expand. That means payroll closes under control, data we can trust, and processes nobody has to chase.

You’ll report to our Head of People and lead a team of People Ops Specialists, with an Ops Specialist supporting you on the technical side of our tools.

What you’ll do

Make payroll accurate and reliable in every country: choose, manage and, when needed, replace our local providers, and own the monthly close (calendar, cut-offs, pre- and post-run checks, reconciliation with Finance)

Own our HRIS (HiBob) as our single source of truth, and its connection to payroll in every country

Run the employee lifecycle, benefits and ESOP administration across Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Bulgaria and every new market we open

Keep each country compliant : map the risks, decide what to fix first and track it to closure

Design processes and data with measurement in mind, and use AI to remove manual work

Lead and grow the team

What you bring

Solid experience in HR or People Operations, owning processes end to end , including the Italian employment framework

Hands-on experience running payroll through external providers : month-end close, controls, reconciliations and provider management

Experience owning an HRIS and connecting it to payroll (e.g. HiBob with JetHR, PayFit, Deel)

A track record of automating HR processes , with concrete AI use cases you can walk us through

Fluent Italian and English
