What you will need - Proven experience leading end-to-end HR in a fast-growing, international organization. - Strong hands-on background with the ability to operate at both strategic and execution levels. - Experience managing HR across multiple countries, including a mix of local entities, remote employees, and third-party employment structures. - Solid expertise across talent acquisition, performance management, employee relations, compensation & benefits, payroll, and HR operations. - Strong judgment and business acumen, with the ability to make pragmatic decisions in ambiguous situations. - High ownership mindset - comfortable rolling up sleeves and solving problems directly. - Ability to work closely with founders and senior leaders in a fast-paced, high-expectation environment.
