About the role 🤓

You will join the People team as part of the People Ops & Payroll function. You will work in close collaboration with the Payroll Specialist, sitting within the People Compliance & Governance area. It is a high-autonomy, high-variety role with visibility across the entire company, the operational backbone that keeps everything running smoothly for our ~400 employees.

Your focus is on the ops side: coordinating processes, maintaining data integrity, and ensuring every cycle (payroll, onboarding) runs on time and without gaps.

What challenges you'll be solving 🚀

Payroll & Compensation

  • Coordinate the monthly payroll cycle with the Payroll Specialist: variable collection, process tracking, contract changes, and internal audit support.

  • Manage offboarding processes end-to-end from the ops side.

Deel & Freelancer/Advisor Management

  • Run monthly payments on EOR for international employees: expense approvals, time-off management, and bonus/variable additions.

  • Manage the full invoice and payment flow for external freelancers and advisors, with fixed monthly deadlines and close attention to detail.

  • Review invoices against control spreadsheets and coordinate with Finance for approval and payment via Tipalti.

Benefits & Occupational Health (PRL)

  • Manage health insurance: enrolments, cancellations, modifications, and annual policy renewals.

  • Monthly cost reconciliation with the Finance team.

  • Coordinate mandatory PRL training, medical check-ups, and annual on-site visits.

Onboarding & Offboarding Operations

  • Own the operational side of onboarding: profile activation in ATS, HiBob setup (employment data, time off, time tracking), and coordination of onboarding session logistics.

  • Coordinate PRL licences and initial compliance training for new joiners.

  • Own the full offboarding process from an ops and compliance perspective.

HiBob Administration

  • Administer and maintain HiBob as one of the platform owners: time tracking, time off, surveys, reports, integrations, and employee data.

Day-to-Day Support

  • Resolve employee queries via Jira ticketing system.

  • Create and maintain internal documentation, processes, and guides.

What you'll need 🤝

  • 2–4 years of experience in HR Ops or People Ops (generalist or specialist).

  • Experience coordinating payroll cycles — not necessarily calculating payroll, but owning the coordination and follow-up.

  • Hands-on experience with a modern HRIS (HiBob, Personio, Factorial, or equivalent).

  • End-to-end ownership of onboarding and offboarding operations.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in both Spanish and English (C1+ level in both languages) are required. Additional European languages are highly valued. 

Nice to have

  • Experience with, HiBob, Payroll Software, Deel or contractor/freelancer payment platforms.

  • Knowledge of PRL (occupational risk prevention) in Spain.

  • Background in fintech, startup, or fast-growth environment.
