Purpose

VSHN is special because it’s not an organization with team leads or any other kind of "line organization". The working environment of most employees is characterized and shaped by them, in self-organized teams and roles. There is still the usual administrative work in the HR domain and there are also legally confidential issues and personal matters that either go beyond a team or that the employee does not want to share right away.

We need to ensure that we are not only a lawful but also a great employer, do the needed admin work, take personnel matters seriously and support our VSHNeers in a way that actually helps them and fits in with our work culture.

Accountabilities (Key Responsibilities)

  • Vacation, public holidays, special occasions, Education & Hardware budget and Expenses

  • Personnel data administration

  • Payroll including social insurance

  • Administrative onboarding and offboarding

  • Handling of reported incidents violating personnel policy or contract

  • Go-to-contact for VSHNeers for personal matters

  • Employee work contracts incl. initial job offering and compliance

  • Employer compliance (taxes, insurance, work law, etc.)
