This role would be a great fit for someone who enjoys asking questions, sharing ideas and looking for ways to support the team.

• Coordinate with external partners on employee immigration and relocation matters.
• Support employees returning from extended absences by coordinating communication, emails and onboarding sessions.
• Help us organise tasks and improve the efficiency of everyday HR administration.
• Look for opportunities to contribute beyond your regular responsibilities, whether by offering support, suggesting an improvement or getting involved in an additional project.

WHAT WE WANT YOU TO BRING ALONG

• Good command of both Polish and English.
• High availability, ideally close to full-time, and flexibility to support the team across the working week.
• A proactive “I can help” attitude and willingness to take initiative.
• Curiosity, eagerness to learn and a hands-on approach.

You can expect:

• Exposure to a broad range of HR operations and employee lifecycle processes.
• A supportive team that will share its knowledge and help you develop.
• Space to ask questions, suggest ideas and gradually take ownership of tasks.
• Practical skills that will give you a strong foundation for a future career in HR.
• Daily collaboration in a truly multicultural environment.
