Why Join Us?

We’re on a mission to empower people with disabilities to do what they once did or never thought possible. As the world-leader in assistive communication solutions, we empower our customers to express themselves, connect with the world, and live richer lives.

At Tobii Dynavox, you can grow your career within a dynamic, global company that has a clear, impactful purpose - with the flexibility to also do what truly matters to you outside of work. What’s more, you’ll be part of a work culture where collaboration is the norm and individuality is welcomed.

As a member of our team, you’ll have the power to grow ideas in an unconventional environment. At the same time, you’ll work in a culture of ongoing learning and development, allowing you to constantly expand your area of expertise.

About the role

As a People Generalist, you will be a key member of the People & Sustainability team, acting as a trusted partner to employees, managers, and global People & Sustainability colleagues. You will support a broad range of activities, including employee relations, People administration, onboarding, learning and development, process improvement, and compliance.

The role requires a proactive and service-oriented individual who enjoys building relationships, improving processes, and ensuring a high-quality employee experience. You will play an important role in evolving our People operations, promoting efficient and digital ways of working, and maintaining the highest standards of integrity, confidentiality, and compliance.

As a member of the first-line support team, you will serve as a primary point of contact for People-related inquiries and ensure that employees and managers receive timely, accurate, and practical guidance.

Please note: This is a hybrid role based in Germany (Kassel, Cologne, or Duisburg) requiring 2-3 days/week in office with occasional business travel within Europe (approximately once per quarter)

In this role you will:

• Serve as a trusted People partner and point of contact for employees and managers on People-related policies, procedures, and employee lifecycle matters
• Manage People administration, employee documentation, and organizational data within the HRIS
• Support employee relations matters, including investigations, conflict resolution, disciplinary processes, grievance matters, and performance-related discussions, with integrity and respect for the individuals involved
• Contribute to the development, implementation, and communication of People policies, guidance, processes, and initiatives
• Support recruitment and onboarding activities, including new hire administration, orientation programs, and introduction activities
• Coordinate and facilitate onboarding, training, and employee development initiatives in collaboration with relevant colleagues
• Maintain employee records efficiently, accurately, and with a high level of integrity and confidentiality, using digital solutions wherever possible
• Partner with People & Sustainability colleagues and other internal and external stakeholders to digitalize, transform, and continuously improve ways of working
• Support global mobility, organizational changes, and other employee lifecycle processes as required
• Maintain a global perspective and collaborate across functions and geographies to align practices where appropriate while ensuring compliance with applicable local requirements
• Develop and maintain practical guidance and internal information for People-related matters and coordinate relevant communications
• Stay informed about employment law developments, People trends, and good practice relevant to the countries supported

Who You Are:

You're a composed and resilient professional who is confident navigating employee relations hands-on, partnering with stakeholders, and improving People processes with a proactive and structured approach.

Ideal candidates will bring:

• Several years of broad People/HR generalist experience, ideally in an international, fast-paced environment, with experience supporting employees and managers across multiple countries.
• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Law, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• Strong practical knowledge of German employment law and experience across employee relations, People operations, and compliance. Experience with employment matters in France and Belgium is highly preferred.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to build trusted relationships and handle sensitive matters with professionalism and discretion.
• A structured and proactive approach, with the ability to manage multiple priorities independently, solve problems, and maintain accuracy and attention to detail.
• A continuous improvement mindset, with experience improving People processes, practices, and ways of working.
• Experience with HRIS platforms, preferably Workday or another global People system, and confidence working with People technology and digital processes.
• Professional fluency in English and German, both written and spoken. French is a strong advantage.
