📋 Description
• Lead the People team: manage two recruiters and an office manager, run weekly 1:1s, quarterly evaluations, and develop their skills • Own the full recruitment cycle: plan hiring in sync with the sales pipeline, set priorities, run or oversee ~50 hires per year across specialist, leadership, and back-office roles • Design and optimize recruitment processes, train hiring managers (PMs, tech leads), and manage relationships with recruitment agencies and outsourcing partners • Run onboarding, workshadowing, and offboarding programs • Partner with team leads on quarterly performance reviews, competency matrices, development plans, and corrective processes • Step in when things get hard: burnout, conflicts, terminations, difficult conversations. You're the person leaders lean on • Advise C-level on hiring decisions, compensation structures, team rotation, org design, and succession planning • Own HR operations: contracts (B2B, UoP, UZ, NDAs), leave management, overtime calculations, invoice approvals, compensation reports • Build and maintain all people policies: leave, equipment, remote work, recruitment, bonuses, offboarding, benefits • Manage vendor relationships: Saltus (medical), legal counsel, payroll/accounting partner, training providers • Drive HR reporting: recruitment pipeline metrics, retention, headcount efficiency, and translate data into recommendations for leadership • Lead people initiatives: wellbeing programs, mentoring, feedback frameworks, strategic projects • Handle compliance: ISO 27001 audits, labor inspection requirements, access management across tools (Google, Slack, Jira, Recruitee, Calamari, and more) • Use AI tools as part of your daily workflow, not as a party trick.
🎯 Requirements
• 5+ years in a senior HR/People role, with at least 2 years managing a team • Hands-on recruitment experience at scale: you can run a hiring process yourself, not just delegate it. Tech/software services industry strongly preferred • Solid understanding of Polish labor law and contract types (B2B, UoP, UZ), enough to draft documents and make sound decisions without calling a lawyer every time • Experience building HR systems from scratch or significantly rebuilding them: compensation frameworks, performance reviews, onboarding programs, policies • Commercial awareness: you understand how hiring plans connect to revenue, and you can have a real conversation with a CEO about headcount vs. pipeline • Strong with data: you define metrics, build reports, and turn numbers into recommendations, not just dashboards • English at C1+ (written and spoken) • Direct, honest communication: you say what needs to be said, especially when it's uncomfortable • The ability to switch between strategic thinking and hands-on execution within the same day • Initiative and ownership: if a process is broken, you fix it. If a policy is missing, you write it. You don't wait for permission.
🏖️ Benefits
• 26 days paid leave (B2B) • 10 days paid sick leave • Saltus medical care (private health insurance) • Training budget (2,000 PLN+): courses, conferences, books, whatever makes you better at what you do • Mentoring budget: access to external mentors and coaching sessions to support your growth • Fully remote, with a pet-friendly office in Warsaw and a coworking space in Gdansk if you want them
