People Operations Generalist

As we continue our year-on-year headcount growth, we are looking for a Senior People Operations Generalist to help us scale our people and talent operations across Ireland and the wider EMEA region, including France and Germany. 

This role reports to the Global Head of People and serves as the primary People Operations partner for the region, working closely with our US HQ and APAC People teams. You will also partner with our Technical Recruiter in Dublin to support continued team growth in EMEA.

This is not a traditional People Operations role focused primarily on administration and day-to-day support. We are looking for someone who can think strategically, operate hands-on, and leverage AI, automation, and data to improve how People Operations works as we scale.

Please note: This is a hybrid role based in Dublin, with an expectation to work from the office three days per week (Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday). 

Responsibilities

• People Operations: Oversee day-to-day People operations for Ireland and support the broader EMEA region, ensuring compliance with local labour laws and regulations in partnership with legal teams.
• Global People Programs: Support the implementation and execution of global People programs, including performance cycles, salary reviews, engagement surveys, employee recognition, and retention programs across the region.
• Onboarding/Offboarding: Manage the end-to-end employee lifecycle, including onboarding new hires and conducting offboarding for existing employees.
• Payroll & Benefits: Partner with the Finance team and benefits providers to ensure accurate payroll processing and administer employee benefit programs.
• Employee Relations: Provide guidance and support on employee relations matters, fostering a positive and productive workplace culture.
• Global Mobility: Manage visa, permit, and relocation processes for international hires and transfers, partnering with external immigration providers (e.g., Fragomen) to ensure timely, compliant sponsorship.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in People Operations roles, with a focus on tech companies.
• Strong knowledge of labor laws across the EU, with expertise in Ireland, France, and Germany.
• Proven experience managing People Operations processes across multiple countries and cultures.
• Experience leveraging AI, automation, and analytics to improve People processes, streamline workflows, reduce manual work, and enable more efficient, data-driven operations.
• Legally authorised to work in Ireland. 

Desired Skills & Experience

• Startup experience is a must.
• Strong operational mindset with the ability to build structure, improve processes, and drive execution. 
• Ability to operate effectively in high-growth, high-ambiguity environments with changing priorities and evolving business needs.
• Result-oriented and proactive approach — someone who takes ownership, moves quickly, makes sound decisions with imperfect information, and drives change.
• Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to engage and influence at all levels of the organization.
