We’re looking for an experienced People Generalist to provide senior leadership and continuity during a 9–12 month maternity cover. You’ll step into a well-functioning People team and focus on stability, sound judgement, and trusted partnership with the business—stepping in hands-on where needed, without disrupting established ways of working.

Some of the things you’ll do:

  • People Leadership: Lead and support a team of six, coaching three direct reports to deliver across their respective areas.
  • Business Partnering: Act as a trusted advisor to the COO and senior leaders on complex people matters.
  • Employee Relations: Own senior escalation of complex ER cases, ensuring fair, compliant, and pragmatic outcomes.
  • People Operations: Oversee core People Operations and the annual people cycle to ensure smooth, compliant delivery.
  • Function Continuity: Maintain business-as-usual excellence and stability throughout the interim period.

We’re excited if you have:

  • Senior People Generalist experience (Head of People, People Lead, or Senior HRBP).
  • Hands-on experience in business partnering, Employee Relations, and People Operations.
  • Experience leading and developing People teams.
  • Background in organisations of c.100–1,000 employees.
  • Strong working knowledge of UK employment law.
  • Experience in tech, SaaS, or high-growth environments preferred.

    If this position is filled in Vienna, the minimum gross salary is €75,000. If this vacancy is filled anywhere else, the salary may differ. In any case, we offer competitive salaries depending on your qualifications and experience.
