This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company. We are currently looking for a Senior People Operations Specialist in Ireland.

This role sits within a fast-moving, remote-first environment where People Operations plays a critical role in enabling a globally distributed team to scale effectively. You will own end-to-end HR operations across the employee lifecycle, acting as a hands-on generalist who thrives in ambiguity and builds structured solutions from first principles. The position has a strong focus on operational excellence, automation, and continuous improvement, particularly through AI-driven workflows. You will collaborate closely with managers, employees, Finance, and external providers across multiple jurisdictions. This is a highly impactful role where your work directly shapes the employee experience and operational scalability of a multi-country organization. You’ll be expected to think proactively, solve problems independently, and design systems that reduce manual effort while improving accuracy and efficiency.

• Own and manage core HR operations across the full employee lifecycle, ensuring smooth and compliant processes from onboarding to offboarding.
• Support managers and employees on performance management, employee relations, and day-to-day HR needs in a remote environment.
• Coordinate with EOR providers and contractors across multiple countries, navigating complex European employment structures.
• Partner with Finance to manage contractor payments, payroll-related workflows, and ensure timely and accurate execution.
• Design, document, and continuously improve scalable HR processes, replacing manual workflows with structured, automated solutions.
• Build and maintain People Operations tools and automations, including integrations with platforms such as HiBob, Notion, Slack, and internal systems.
• Identify and implement opportunities to leverage AI and automation to enhance operational efficiency and reduce friction.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience in People Operations or HR, ideally within a tech-driven environment (SaaS, fintech, or similar).
• Proven experience in startup or scale-up settings, with a strong ability to build and improve processes rather than only execute them.
• Solid understanding of European employment frameworks, including multi-country workforce management, EOR models, and contractor administration.
• Experience working in fully remote, async-first environments with distributed teams.
• Strong attention to detail, numerical accuracy, and structured thinking.
• High ownership mindset: ability to identify issues, solve them independently, and document solutions clearly.
• Comfortable and proactive in using AI tools for drafting, research, and process optimization.
• Experience in larger organizations (~1,000+ employees) is a plus.
• Exposure to payroll processes or payroll provider coordination is an advantage.

Benefits:

• 30 days of annual paid time off (PTO).
• Flexible remote work and adaptable working hours.
• Equity participation from day one.
• Company-provided work equipment (choice of device).
• Annual €1,000 personal development budget (available after 6 months, prorated during the first year).
• One-time €1,000 remote work budget for coworking spaces or home office setup.
• Participation in annual global company offsites (past destinations include Thailand, Vietnam, Morocco, and Greece).
• Additional benefits apply for independent contractors (limited to core perks listed above).
