Drive people initiatives that strengthen culture, recognition, and feedback across high-volume teams.
Support the leadership team in defining optimal team structures and performance management practices.
Work with Works Council members in Barcelona and Berlin to align on people processes.
Identify and address talent and culture challenges with data-driven insights and empathy.
Collaborate cross-functionally with People Ops, Talent, and L&D to improve systems and practices.

Have 4+ years of experience as a People Partner or in a similar HRBP role.
Bring strong knowledge of employment law and performance management practices across Europe.
Have experience working with operations or contact centre teams.
Demonstrate excellent coaching, prioritisation, and communication skills — you’re direct, transparent, and approachable.
Are analytical, curious, and resilient — able to navigate ambiguity with confidence.
Thrive in a collaborative, fast-moving environment where no two days are the same.
(Nice to have) Experience with Spanish labour law and change management initiatives.
(Nice to have) Experience with CSM teams would be a plus!
