We are looking for an experienced HR Operations professional who thrives on operational excellence and is passionate about continuously enhancing HR Services. In this role, you will take ownership of complex HR processes throughout the entire employee lifecycle, independently manage challenging individual cases, and leverage your expertise to elevate our HR Services to the next level. While staying close to day-to-day operations, you will always think one step ahead when it comes to process improvement and optimization.

You feel at home in complex operational HR topics, enjoy working in a structured manner, and maintain a clear overview even when managing multiple priorities simultaneously.

HR Projects & Initiatives: You actively participate in cross-functional HR projects and initiatives that drive continuous improvement across the organization.

Professional Experience: You bring at least five years of relevant experience in HR Operations across the full employee lifecycle within a professional environment, ideally within a regulated industry. Experience in banking, capital markets, or financial services is considered a strong advantage.

Personal Strengths: You demonstrate exceptional attention to detail, a strong commitment to quality, and the ability to find pragmatic solutions to complex challenges. You work with a high degree of ownership, contribute positively to team success, and interact confidently with stakeholders and leaders at all organizational levels.
