You’ll lead a high-impact, global team and play a crucial role in shaping the future of Westwing by building people systems and processes that serve as the foundation for high-performance. This is a role for a strategic doer: someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, is equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves to get hands-on as they are designing global strategy. Someone who challenges the status quo, champions excellence, and dares to push for efficiency by leveraging AI and automation. If you thrive by building a People Operations function that is as precise, data-driven, and aspirational as our brand, you've found your team!<br>This position is <strong>permanent</strong><strong> </strong>and based in <strong>Munich</strong>.</span>"
