Someone who is confident advising managers, comfortable navigating complex employee situations, and equally willing to roll up their sleeves to ensure that everyday HR processes run smoothly.

- Contribute to Employer Branding, internal communications, and employee engagement initiatives that strengthen organizational culture.
- Collaborate with the recruitment team and hiring managers on hiring strategies and workforce needs.
- Analyze HR metrics, trends, and workforce data to provide insights to support HR strategy and decision-making.
Requirements
- 3-5 years of experience in HR roles such as HR Generalist, HR Specialist, or similar.
- Strong understanding of HR processes, employee relations, performance management, and employment legislation.
- Experience advising managers and supporting people-related decision-making.
- Experience working with HR data, salary benchmarking, or labor market analysis is considered an advantage.
- Ability to drive HR initiatives and improve HR processes across the organization.
- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills when working with managers and employees.

- Strong analytical, organizational, and project management skills.
- Ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion.
We offer:
- Monthly gross salary from 2200 to 2900 EUR, depending on your level of expertise.
- Hybrid way of working with cozy office space in the center of Riga, requiring at least three days per week on-site.
- Family-oriented company values and healthy attitude towards work and life balance - granting additional 4 vacation days, birthday leave, "Happy Land" space in the office for children, etc.
- Individual development and learning plan, including yearly budget for external training.
- Necessary essentials – health insurance with dental services and sports coverage.
- Possibility to work in mutual trust and positive team environment, to be creative, and improve workflow by self-initiatives.
