• Support benefits administration and respond to employee HR queries


• Ensure compliance with Dutch labor law and internal policies


• Work closely with managers, Finance, and Talent Acquisition to keep HR operations running smoothly

Process \& improvement

• Help improve HR processes (e.g., onboarding, documentation, HRIS usage) with practical, hands\-on improvements


• Support People \& Culture initiatives and projects across EMEA where relevant


• Provide basic reporting and insights (e.g., headcount changes, onboarding/offboarding tracking)

What we’re looking for

• \~3\+ years of experience in an HR / People \& Culture Officer or similar role


• Strong experience in HR administration and operational processes


• Solid understanding of Dutch labor law and payroll/benefits processes


• Hands\-on experience with HR systems (e.g. HRIS) and employee data management


• Strong attention to detail and a structured way of working


• Able to manage multiple priorities and keep things organised in a fast\-paced environment


• Proactive mindset — you spot issues and improve how things are done


• Strong communication skills in English; Dutch is preferred for local employee support and communication with Dutch authorities

What you can expect

• A role with clear ownership of HR operations in the Netherlands


• Exposure to an international (EMEA) People \& Culture environment


• Opportunity to contribute to process improvements and projects alongside your core responsibilities


• A collaborative team and a practical, no\-nonsense working style
