This role is built for a hands-on People leader who has seen what scale really looks like. Someone who has operated in a fast-moving, multi-country business, enjoys complexity, loves user-centred processes, and knows how to combine strong systems thinking with a genuinely human employee experience.
Alongside People Operations and payroll, you will also lead the team responsible for IONITY’s internally used cars, helping make sure employees across the business stay mobile and supported.
Your mission
You will build and lead the team behind the moments employees rely on most, making sure the admin side of things never feels like admin. You will continue to make our processes scalable without becoming rigid, efficient without losing the human touch, and modern enough to use systems, automation, and AI where they create real value.What you’ll do
- Own smooth, reliable People Operations delivery across the employee lifecycle.
- Ensure payroll inputs, handovers, and data flows are accurate, timely, and well managed.
- Improve processes, systems, and workflows to make work simpler, smarter, and more scalable.
- Use automation and AI thoughtfully to reduce friction and create more time for meaningful human support.
- Help raise employee benefits across our countries to a more comparable and scalable level, while respecting local realities.
- Support and develop IONITY’s internally used car service and keep it practical, efficient, and employee-friendly.
- Partner closely with People Partners to stay close to business needs and make sure support feels seamless across teams.
- Build strong partnerships across the business and turn complexity into usable solutions.
- Lead, coach, and grow your team with trust, clarity, and high standards.
