What We Do

We believe small and medium-sized organizations are the backbone of global economies, and their most valuable asset is the people they employ. But many of their HR teams are held back by complicated, time-consuming processes and admin. We’re changing that with our all-in-one HR solution that transforms the way millions of people experience work every day.

At the core of our people-focused product are the individuals who craft it: We proudly identify as Personios. As we build on our success as Europe’s leading HR platform for SMEs, we are looking for the brightest minds to bring their own innovative ideas to the table. When you join our team of 1800+ across Europe and the US, you’ll have an impact from day one – for our 12,000+ customers and the 1.5 million employees we serve.

Why Work With Us

Personio is one of the most valuable tech startups in Europe, but we're just getting started with revolutionizing HR for the 1.7 million small and medium-sized organizations still stuck in the spreadsheet era. Now we need your experience scaling tech companies to take us to the next level.
