Role
Who you are
- We’re looking for a detail-oriented, proactive, and people-focused People Operations Specialist to support our growing EMEA team
- 5-8 years of experience in People Operations, HR coordination, or a similar employee-facing role, ideally in a distributed or international company
- Experience supporting employees across multiple EMEA countries and a basic understanding of regional employment practices
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English (additional EMEA languages are a plus)
- Highly organized and process-driven with strong attention to detail and follow-through
- Comfortable presenting and facilitating group sessions like orientation or training
- Tech-savvy and familiar with HR systems (e.g., BambooHR, HiBob, Greenhouse, Notion, Slack, etc.)
- Naturally collaborative, discreet, and empathetic—you’re someone employees feel comfortable coming to
- Able to work independently and balance multiple priorities in a fast-paced, changing environment
- Passionate about building a great employee experience and making People Ops more human and efficient
What the job involves
- In this role, you’ll play a critical part in delivering a smooth and welcoming employee experience across the entire lifecycle—from onboarding to offboarding—with a particular focus on running new hire orientation sessions tailored for EMEA time zones
- You’ll ensure the operational backbone of our People function is running efficiently and with heart
- Coordinate and execute all core People Ops processes across the EMEA region, including onboarding, offboarding, benefits administration, and employee data management
- Own and facilitate new hire orientation sessions for EMEA-based employees, ensuring a consistent and engaging Day 1 experience that reflects our company culture
- Serve as the go-to point of contact for employee questions related to policies, tools, benefits, and People programs
- Coordinate country-specific leave policies (e.g., parental leave, sick leave, statutory holidays) and support questions around entitlements or local practices
- Maintain and update employee records in our HRIS (e.g., BambooHR, HiBob, or Workday), ensuring accuracy and confidentiality
- Partner with IT and other departments to ensure a seamless onboarding setup process (accounts, equipment, access)
- Assist with the administration and logistics of People programs (e.g., engagement surveys, performance reviews, learning & development)
- Coordinate internal communications related to People Ops processes, policy updates, and calendar-based HR events
- Support compliance with local labor laws and regulations across multiple EMEA countries, escalating when needed
- Help document and improve People Ops processes as we scale, contributing to internal SOPs and knowledge bases
- Collaborate cross-functionally with Payroll, Legal, Finance, and regional leadership to ensure smooth people operations
- This role will have a probationary period prior to an opportunity to convert to full time. The probationary period per country is as follows: Portugal - 90 days, Bulgaria - 6 months
Our take
As enterprises handle and produce increasing volumes of content, the Content Management System (CMS) market is still growing strongly – expected to more than double in size by 2030. To differentiate themselves in a crowded market, disruptors entering the space are championing the idea of “Headless CMS”, through which enterprises can customize the front-end visuals while offering the same level of backend infrastructure.
Co-founded by the same trio that created and sold Built.io, Contentstack is one such disruptor that’s making a strong name for itself. Founded in 2019, the platform is now used by a number of major enterprises including Shell, JPMorgan Chase, McDonald’s, and Walmart.
It’s been a very strong start to life, with huge VC funding as well as a high-profile customer base, but there is still plenty of competition – Storyblok, Prismic, Strapi, and Kontent are all well funded and growing quickly too. That being said, Contenstack is hoping that its no-code automation features will help it stand out from the rest as the company looks to grow internationally.
