People Business Partner (m/w/x)

We are looking for an enthusiastic People Business Partner to join the People team at Grover, full-time and minimum 3 days per week (Tuesday-Thursday) at our Berlin HQ. 

Reporting directly to our Director of People & Culture, you will have the autonomy to design programs from scratch, influence leadership, and build the people-focused structural backbone of a business model that is critical for the future of sustainable consumption. If you’re looking for a role where you can truly leave your mark, you’ve found it.

🎯  What you will contribute:

• Strategic Sparring: Act as the dedicated partner to leadership, providing fearless coaching and guidance on organizational design, talent management, and team dynamics.
• Operational Excellence: Take full ownership of the HR lifecycle for your business areas. You don’t wait for instructions; you identify gaps and bridge them proactively.
• HRIS & Process Optimization: Serve as the architect of our HR systems. You’ll lead the charge in optimizing our HRIS to ensure it’s a tool for efficiency, not a bottleneck.
• Data-Driven Insights: Translate "people vibes" into people metrics. You’ll analyze turnover, engagement, and performance data to tell a story and drive executive decision-making.
• Conflict Resolution: Navigate complex employee relations with confidence. You don't avoid difficult conversations - you facilitate them to reach the best outcome for both the human and the business.

🤝 What you bring:

• Experience: At least 3+ years of experience as an HR Business Partner in Germany, preferably in high-growth B2C tech environments or fast-paced startups. 
• Independence: You are a self-starter who doesn't need a manual. You thrive when given a goal and the freedom to find the best way to reach it.
• Conflict Resilience: You have "thick skin" and high emotional intelligence. You can challenge senior stakeholders and handle sensitive situations with poise and directness.
• Systems Thinking: You are tech-savvy and have a track record of implementing or optimizing HRIS systems (e.g., Personio, Workday, or HiBob).
• Analytical Mindset: You are comfortable with spreadsheets and dashboards. You understand that "people data" is the key to proving HR’s value to the bottom line.
• Proactive Attitude: You don't just spot problems; you bring three potential solutions to the table.
• Communication: Fluent English is a must; +B2 German skills are a significant plus given our Berlin roots and DACH focus.

❤️‍🔥 What you will love about us:

• BVG monthly discount to drive you everywhere in Berlin
• Mental health support with Nilohealth
• 1 paid volunteering day per month
• Physical health support with Urban Sports Club
• Annual learning budget of 750€ 
• 15 remote business days to work abroad 
• Exclusive Grover Tech discount for you & your loved ones
• Engaging, open office located in Berlin-Schöneberg with regular events, and is dog-friendly
• A diverse global team of 75 nationalities (and counting!) - genuinely the nicest group of colleagues who will soon become friends

Embark on a rewarding journey with the Grover Rocketship, where your impact is felt, and together, we cultivate a more circular world. 💚

We are looking forward to e-meeting you! 🚀
