You as part of tonies:

At tonies, everything revolves around stories—they are at the heart of what we do. However, our success isn't just based on technology and creative ideas, but primarily on the passionate people who bring these stories to life every day.
To ensure we continue to grow healthily, we are looking for you as a People Operations Manager.

In this role, you are the organizational backbone of our People & Culture team. You pull the strings behind the scenes, ensure clean data, and optimize the systems and processes that enable our global team to perform at their best.
This role is pivotal in maintaining our standards in the UK while building out our People Operations processes from the ground up in France, Australia, and New Zealand. You will be a key player in a global team, collaborating closely with colleagues based in the US and Germany to ensure a seamless employee experience across our growing international footprint.

Your tasks and responsibilities will include:

• Employee Lifecycle Management: You ensure a first-class experience for our employees in the UK, France, Australia and New Zealand. You manage all administrative steps—from the initial contract and changes during their career to appreciative offboarding and the creation of reference letters for our tonies.
• Payroll & Benefits: You have a handle on the numbers. You maintain all salary and benefit data and work hand-in-hand with our external partners for preparatory payroll accounting. Your goal: 100% accuracy and punctuality.
