About the role

As HR Manager for the DACH region and France at Comarch, you will own the regional HR agenda end‑to‑end, shaping strategy, rolling out group‑wide programs and adapting them to local legal and cultural contexts.

Key responsibilities

• Design, execute and scale the HR strategy across Germany, Austria, Switzerland and France, defining performance benchmarks and tracking organisational health.
• Roll out group‑wide HR programmes (performance management, L&D, compensation & benefits, talent frameworks) and localise them to comply with national labour laws.
• Partner with regional managers on organisational design, succession planning, leadership development and performance management.
• Own the full employee lifecycle – onboarding, wellbeing, retention initiatives and use exit data for continuous improvement.
• Ensure all employment contracts, documentation and internal regulations comply with local labour legislation, with a focus on German law.
• Support cultural and business transformation, embedding Comarch values within local teams.

Required profile

• Minimum 5 years of experience as an HR Manager, Senior HRBP or comparable international HR leadership role, preferably in the DACH market.
• Professional proficiency in English and German; French is a strong asset.
• Solid practical knowledge of German labour law; familiarity with Austrian, Swiss or French frameworks is a plus.
• Hands‑on experience with modern HRIS/HCM platforms and HR analytics, able to translate talent metrics into business decisions.
• Collaborative, proactive matrix‑leadership style with strong negotiation and cultural intelligence.
• Willingness to travel regularly across the region.
