QUMEA is growing internationally and our People & Culture team is scaling with it. Today we cover HR administration reliably, but we lack the bandwidth and expertise to act as a strategic partner to the business - building scalable processes, shaping a per-formance culture, and developing our people across borders. This role closes that gap. As Senior P&C Business Partner you will architect the people processes and talent practices that let QUMEA grow without growing pains: consistent, compliant, and built to scale across multiple European entities from day one.
Process & Policy Design
-
Design and implement scalable HR processes that work consistently across our Eu-ropean entities.
-
Build a policy framework that meets local employment law requirements in Switzerland and across EU markets while remaining operationally coherent.
-
Partner with Legal and Finance to ensure cross-border compliance - contracts, work permits, benefits harmonisation, and GDPR-aligned data practices.
-
Own the HR operations roadmap: identify manual bottlenecks and automate or systematise them.
Talent Development & Learning-
Design and roll out a company-wide performance management framework - goal-setting, mid-year check-ins, year-end calibration - that managers can actually use.
-
Build career frameworks and levelling guides in collaboration with team leads to make growth paths explicit and fair.
-
Identify Learning & Development needs through data and dialogue; source or build learning programs that address real capability gaps, not just nice-to-haves.
-
Drive our employer brand and talent pipeline strategy in partnership with the leadership team.
Strategic Business Partnering-
Serve as a trusted advisor to senior managers and leadership - challenging deci-sions, surfacing people risks, and bringing data-informed perspectives.
-
Support workforce planning conversations: headcount, skills gaps, organisational design.
-
Translate business strategy into people priorities and feed them back into the P&C roadmap.
Experience
-
5–8 years in HR / People & Culture roles, with clear progression from operational to strategic work.
-
Proven track record designing and implementing HR processes or talent programs in a scale-up or multi-country environment.
-
Hands-on experience navigating employment law across at least two European countries (Swiss or EU labour law knowledge is a strong plus).
-
Experience working without a large HR team behind you - comfortable owning the whole stack from policy writing to manager coaching.
Skills & Mindset-
Process thinker: you document, systematise, and improve - you do not just resolve tickets.
-
Strong communicator: able to influence senior stakeholders and explain complex employment topics in plain language.
-
Data literacy: you use people analytics to support decisions, not just report head-count.
-
Builder mentality: you are energised by building from scratch, not maintaining what already exists.
-
Pragmatic and compliance-aware: you find the path that is both legally sound and operationally viable.
-
Business fluency in English is required. German or French is a meaningful advantage given our Swiss base and European footprint.
-
A seat at the table: direct line to the executive team and genuine influence over how QUMEA runs its people strategy.
-
A brownfield: most of what needs building does not exist yet or needs revision - you will own the architecture.
-
International scope from day one: Swiss HQ with colleagues and entities across Europe.
-
A company that takes culture seriously and needs you to make it legible and scalable.
