Hempel · Vor Ort · Gdansk, Poland

Payroll does not happen by magic. Neither do great People & Culture operations.  

Behind every correct and on-time payment, smooth employee process, and well-supported manager is a team working hard, solving problems, and making things better every day. 

We are looking for someone to join us in P&C Operations role. 

You will ensure payroll runs accurately and on time, while also supporting key P&C processes and providing great experience for employees and managers. You will work on projects, collaborate with suppliers, and explore opportunities to improve, automate, and standardize the way we work. 

And here is the best part: when you work in Payroll and P&C Operations, you get to know everyone. You connect with employees, managers, suppliers, and colleagues across countries. You are right at the center of the company, making a real difference every day. 

If you enjoy solving problems, improving processes, and helping both people and the business succeed, we would love to hear from you! 

 

Can You Help Us Shape a Long-Term Vision for Success and Positive Impact? 
We will enable and empower you to make that vision tangible by giving you the responsibility, influence, and support needed to drive meaningful change.  

You will have the ownership, support, and opportunity to make a real difference. In this role, you will: 

  • Take ownership of accurate and timely payroll delivery for your assigned countries 

  • Investigate payroll issues, identify root causes, and follow through until the right solution is in place 

  • Build strong relationships with payroll suppliers and collaborate with them to ensure high-quality service 

  • Look for opportunities to simplify, standardize, automate, and improve our processes 

  • Support key P&C processes and help create a smooth, positive employee experience 

  • Become a trusted point of contact for employees and managers, providing clear, timely, and helpful support 

  • Use Workday to manage employee data, support process execution, and resolve system-related issues 

  • Work closely with colleagues and stakeholders across countries, functions, and cultures 

  • Stay informed about legal and regulatory changes and help ensure our processes remain compliant 

  • Contribute to projects and improvement initiatives that shape the future of Payroll and P&C Operations 

This is not only about running processes. It is about owning them, improving them, and making every interaction count. 

 

Could You be the Person who keeps People, Processes, and Payroll moving? 

We are looking for someone who enjoys solving problems, connecting with people, and bringing structure to a busy international environment. You do not need to know everything from day one. What matters most is that you are curious, dependable, eager to learn, and ready to take ownership. 

You could be a great match if you: 

  • Communicate clearly and build trust with employees, managers, colleagues, and suppliers 

  • Stay calm under pressure and know how to prioritize when deadlines are tight 

  • Pay attention to detail while keeping the bigger business picture in mind 

  • Enjoy investigating issues, finding root causes, and following through until they are resolved 

  • Feel comfortable asking questions, challenging existing ways of working, and suggesting improvements 

  • Are curious about payroll and interested in how Payroll and P&C Operations work together 

  • Collaborate naturally across teams, cultures, countries, and time zones 

  • Adapt quickly when priorities change or the answer is not immediately clear 

  • Take ownership and can be trusted to deliver accurate, high-quality work 

  • Enjoy working with data and have strong Microsoft Excel skills 

  • Communicate confidently in written and spoken English 

Experience in HR or P&C Operations and a relevant bachelor’s degree will help you succeed in the role. Experience with Workday, ADP, or another payroll provider would be a welcome advantage, as would knowledge of German or another European language. 

Most importantly, bring your curiosity, positive energy, and team spirit. We can build the rest together. 

 

What makes this opportunity stand out? 

You will join a fantastic, supportive team that enjoys working together, sharing knowledge, and celebrating successes. Although we collaborate across different countries, we make time to connect as people too. Almost every week, we meet virtually for Fun Friday, an informal opportunity to catch up, laugh, and finish the week on a positive note. 

You will gain valuable international experience and continue developing your career in a dynamic, multinational environment. Your growth matters to us, which is why you will have access to our learning platform and opportunities supporting both your professional and personal development. 

We also offer: 

  • Fully company-funded private healthcare 

  • Group life insurance 

  • A benefits cafeteria with a co-financed Multisport card 

  • Extra paid holiday days 

  • A hybrid working model, with three days per week in the office 

Join our Payroll and P&C Operations team, build international connections, and make a visible difference every day. 

 

Does it sound like a match?
