Hi, we are Swapfiets! 👋 Welcome to the world of worry-free biking! We are providing members an all-inclusive bike subscription with free repairs and maintenance and lead the movement to more liveable cities.

At Swapfiets, we've built a business on a simple idea: give people a reliable way to get around, and take away the hassle. Over 250,000 members across Europe trust us to keep them rolling. Behind that promise is a People & Culture team that keeps our organisation running just as smoothly, and that's where you come in.

We're looking for a People Specialist who knows Dutch labour law inside out, keeps HR administration tight, and doesn't wait to be asked before spotting a problem and fixing it. 🚲 🚀

How you pedal us forward:

Own HR administration and payrolling for France, ensuring accuracy and timely execution at every step.
Be the knowledge owner for French labour law, proactively tracking changes, translating them into practice, and keeping the business compliant.
Advise employees and managers on local HR topics, legislation, and Swapfiets policy.
Handle individual employee matters and manage communication with external parties: tax authorities, payroll providers, unions and employer associations.
Review and improve HR processes and systems (we work with HiBob and Remote) to keep things running efficiently.
Take end-to-end responsibility for People Operations in the France. Support, guide and coach your People Specialist colleagues, coordinate HR projects, and act as a proactive challenger and advisor to our Centers of Excellence.
Stakeholder Management: Act as a liaison with country managers, Finance, Tech/ Data teams and external stakeholders to maximize your impact.

The gear you need:

Fluent in French and English.
A Bachelor's degree, preferably in HRM, Law, or a related field.
3–5 years of experience in an HR operations role.
Solid, up-to-date knowledge of French labour law, and the drive to keep it that way.
A track record in accurate, structured HR administration; you get the details right without being asked twice.
A proactive mindset: you flag issues early, take ownership, and follow through.
Comfort working in a fast-moving, international environment where things don't always come with a manual

Benefits for a smooth ride:

Salary from €3184.- gross per month, depending on your experience, + 8% holiday allowance.
Your own Swapfiets (lend-lease) 🚲!
32 vacation days for ample time off (that’s right, next to 25 vacation days you can use your 7 Swap days as you please).
A solid pension plan and a discount on your health insurance.
Mac or Windows laptop and phone allowance.
A challenging and rewarding role with significant responsibility and friendly colleagues.
Travel allowance (if you live more than 11 km away from the office, otherwise you’ll just use your Swapfiets, right.. 😎?)
