bunch is building the backbone of private markets. We are enabling next-gen fund operations with one integrated system that combines secure data infrastructure, AI-powered workflows and expert fund services. If you value ownership, growth through real responsibility, and working with a thoughtful, ambitious team, this role might be for you. Your Role bunch is around 155 people across Berlin, London, and Amsterdam, and Luxembourg, on the way to roughly 200 in 2027. That means four legal entities, four payroll providers, different sets of people systems to reconcile, different compliance environments. Right now our People operations run 50% on effort. We want them to run mostly on systems. We also want our people data to be trustworthy enough that headcount, attrition, and hiring numbers are the same in every room they're quoted in. This person will own the operational and data backbone that the rest of the People function depends on. You will: Take full, end-to-end ownership of core People Operations topics — including onboarding, offboarding, contracts, leaves, absence, payroll, immigration cases and documentation — from decision-making through execution. Design, build, and roll out automated, AI-supported workflows and integrations across our tools — including Personio (HRIS) and Notion — to eliminate manual work and connect our systems. Coordinate monthly payroll across Germany, the UK and the Netherlands and in the near future, Luxembourg, with our external providers. You own data accuracy, deadlines and the provider relationships — the providers own the processing. Maintain the compliance calendar and the documentation behind it, working with external counsel where local employment law is involved. Manage and support our full workforce across multiple contract types and locations, ensuring correct setup, documentation, and ongoing administration for each. Be the first line for employee questions on policy, contracts, leave and benefits — and steadily reduce that volume by making the answers self-serve in our handbook. Own the documentation and record-keeping behind employee relations cases: case files, timelines, correspondence. Proactively identify gaps and inefficiencies in our People Operations processes, and independently drive improvement projects from idea through implementation. Maintain accurate, up-to-date HRIS data as a reliable single source of truth, and support strategic reporting and people analytics to inform business decisions.
