HR Manager:in​/Senior Personalreferent

WHO WE ARE

We are Kintiga (formerly MAP Patient Access, Axtalis, and SKC), a pan-European specialist consultancy that partners with ambitious health technology developers through the complex journey to achieve successful market access across Europe, with our tailored approach, global perspective and local expertise.

We are looking for an experienced HR professional to support our German business as the main local HR contact, while also contributing to wider Kintiga HR initiatives.

This is a broad, hands‑on HR role with a clear local remit for Germany and an important connection into the wider Group HR agenda. You will combine trusted HR advice to leaders, German employment expertise, HR process implementation, HRIS activity and defined local office coordination. The role would suit someone who enjoys variety, takes ownership, and is comfortable supporting both people‑related topics and the day‑to‑day activities that help a small to mid‑sized local team run well.

You will work closely with the Managing Director Germany and the Senior HR Manager, supporting local leaders and project/people leads with feedback, development, performance and employee‑related conversations. You will also help translate agreed Group HR activity into clear, practical ways of working for Germany, ensuring local employment, cultural and operational requirements are considered and embedded effectively.

This role may suit an experienced HR generalist or Senior Personal referent who is ready to step into a broader local HR Manager‑style role, while remaining hands‑on and close to the business. You will need the judgement, confidence and follow‑through to support leaders independently, improve local HR delivery and contribute to wider Kintiga HR initiatives.
