Senior HR Generalist

Описание вакансии

Groupon is a marketplace where customers discover new experiences and services everyday and local businesses thrive. To date we have worked with over a million merchant partners worldwide, connecting over 16 million customers with deals across various categories. In a world often dominated by e-commerce giants, we stand out as one of the few platforms uniquely committed to helping local businesses succeed on a performance basis.

Groupon is on a radical journey to transform our business with relentless pursuit of results. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. The impact here can be immediate due to our scale and the speed of our transformation. We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have the resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact.

We're looking for a Senior HR Generalist to be the HR heart of our Warsaw office, a trusted advisor, a culture champion, and a go-to expert for everything people-related in Poland.

📍 Warsaw, Poland**🕐 1-Year Fixed Term Contract

You'll own the full HR remit for our Poland entity, partnering closely with our HR Operations Specialist on operational excellence while acting as a first point of contact for leaders, teams and stakeholders across the business.

This role is pivotal in ensuring our employees are supported, engaged and empowered - while helping to drive business success locally. If you're a self-starter with deep knowledge of Polish employment law and a genuine passion for people, we'd love to hear from you.
