Project Manager People & Organisation (d/f/m) - Full-time or part-time, one-year fixed-term contract

THE TEAM

You will join our people team. We aren't looking for someone to just follow a checklist. We need an architect, a fixer, and a strategist rolled into one. As our Project Manager for People & Organisation, you will be the bridge between high-level vision and functional reality.

RESPONSIBILITIES

In the midst of organizational change, you will identify gaps, design scalable solutions, and execute projects across the entire employee lifecycle. If you are a People professional who thinks like a Project Manager and acts with a "bias for action," this is your stage.
Your tasks will include:

• End-to-End Ownership: Lead the full lifecycle of diverse People initiatives—from auditing "legacy" workflows to building modern, lean processes that fit our new structure.

•
Operational Excellence: Support core operations (including reorgs, payroll, and data auditing) to ensure stability and a "zero-error" transition.

•
Strategic Rollouts: Project manage the implementation of critical culture and performance frameworks, ensuring they are not just launched, but lived.

•
Legacy Building: Evaluate and optimize our tech stack and create "Playbooks" for every new process, ensuring a seamless handover at the end of your term.

•
Change Advocacy: Act as the central point of contact for internal transitions, equipping leads and employees with the tools they need to navigate change.

QUALIFICATIONS

•
Experience: 5+ years in a People or Organizational function (e.g., HR Business Partner, Org Manager, or Change Manager).

•
Expertise: Proven track record in Change Management, Organizational Development, and (Labour) Law regulations.

•
Stakeholder Mastery: Experience partnering with executives to develop and implement People strategies.

•
Languages: Business fluent in both German and English (essential).
