People Operations Partner

You'll own the day-to-day people operations that allow the team to do their best work. This is a highly hands-on and visible role with direct impact on how every employee experiences working at Kombo as the company scales from 75 to 150 people.

What you'll do

• Own the employee journey from offer to exit following regulations in Germany and the US: running onboarding, off-boarding, and maintaining and improving HR policies, and employee data, records, and documentation
• Serve as a trusted people partner across the company: supporting employees with questions, helping managers navigate people processes and collecting feedback and conducting development initiatives
• Improve how the People function runs in practice: identifying and improving inefficiencies and recurring friction points, automating repetitive admin work and improving HR workflows, tools, and documentation
• Help create an environment where people enjoy working together: overseeing office operations and workplace experience, organising off-sites, company celebrations and initiatives that strengthen culture and connection across teams

What you'll need

• 3–6+ years of experience in People Operations, HR Operations, or HR Generalist roles
• Experience in B2B SaaS startups or fast-growing tech companies
• Fluent in both German and English
• Familiar with German employment law and HR operations
• Pragmatic approach, favouring solutions that work over unnecessary complexity
• Highly organised and detail-oriented, able to manage many moving pieces without anything slipping through the cracks
• Comfortable operating independently and making decisions in ambiguous situations
• Actively look for ways to leverage AI and automation to improve quality, speed, and scalability in your work
