WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT US:

Who we are. What drives us. Where we’re heading.

For us, HR isn’t about being a small cog in a large organisation. We have around 120 staff members – which means we’re closely involved with the people, the issues and the decisions.

And this role is correspondingly wide-ranging.

We’re looking for someone who really has a firm grasp of HR: operationally sound, quick on the uptake and in implementation, and experienced enough to make decisions independently and drive issues forward.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES:

Providing independent support to our approximately 120 staff members on all operational HR matters – pragmatically, with a friendly and approachable manner, and on an equal footing

Managing recruitment processes for selected positions – from the initial briefing through interviews and selection to the contract and onboarding
Organising and supporting staff development initiatives; you’ll ensure that a good idea is turned into a successful implementation
Continuously developing and optimising our HR processes with a focus on pragmatic and efficient solutions
Taking on challenging People & Culture projects and special topics, e.g. in the areas of retention, employer branding or staff development

YOUR PROFILE:

Several years’ solid professional experience in a generalist HR role
Solid experience in day-to-day HR operations, HR administration and payroll preparation
A strong hands-on approach and a genuine enthusiasm for tackling operational tasks just as naturally as more challenging HR issues

A high degree of independence and a strong sense of responsibility: you recognise what needs to be done, set the right priorities and reliably see matters through to completion
Confident communication on an equal footing, as well as very good command of German and English
