Dear HR-unconventionalist, we might be looking for you!

Are you a senior leader with a special passion for making teams thrive in fast-scaling organizations? Please read a little more.
Do you want to be part of making our scaleup journey extraordinary by driving the P&C agenda within our Product department? This might be for you!
With the vision of turning a new generation of leaders into listeners, Mentimeter is growing rapidly, and we are now looking for a Senior People Growth Catalyst (HR Business partner-ish) with special interest within Tech Product Organizations, to join our team.
The People Growth Team
Building an engaging and performing culture where teams thrive and individuals are happy is what our People Growth team is overarchingly focusing in, by working with individual, team, and leadership development across the organization. We are a small but utterly energetic powerhouse of 3 People Growth catalysts, to whom you will always be able to turn for support, advice, inspiration, and of course collaboration within our larger organizational development projects.
In this role, we also hope you will enjoy the close collaboration with our People Experience and Talent Acquisition teams, with whom we share the goal of making the employee journey at Menti a ride of our lives.
The role in our Product department
Working as a People Growth Catalyst within our Product department means that you together with the Product Management team will develop and drive the People & Culture agenda for this growing part of the organization. Together with our Craft & Area leads you will analyze your People data, decide on focus areas for development, and initiate, design, and implement relevant People & Culture initiatives accordingly.
You will also work closely with the 15-20 Product Line managers & team leads, supporting them in being the best leaders they can be to themselves and their teams.
We are not interested in doing things just like everyone else, but instead, we want to deliver at the forefront of what “HR” can be in the 21st century. So, if you are still reading and can feel some sweet adrenalin of excitement pumping through your wise veins - please apply!
In this role you will:
Support and coach our Product department leaders in setting and driving their People & Culture agenda through the year, including organizational design.
As part of the People Growth team; Initiate, drive, and launch programs, projects & initiatives that are essential for continuous employee, team & leadership performance, and growth at large.
Initiate, and sometimes also design and facilitate, team development processes (team days, shorter workshops) and similar learning experiences.
Analyze & share insights from our People data to make us focus on the right things to keep engagement & retention high in your department.
With a curious & humble approach learn from all levels and perspectives in the organization to create a great workplace experience for all.
Support and coach tricky conversations, conflict resolution, and similar.



Requirements:
6+ years of relevant work experience from a culture-driven, diverse, and fast-growing organization.
You have worked as a leader and have hands-on experience & understanding of what leading people means, not only form a theoretical perspective
You probably have experience in a similar “HR Business partner“ kind of role, with ideas on how to build and scale this function internally
You have a solid understanding of tech product organizations, and can see and challenge how certain product strategy aspects affect workplace & employee experience.
You are a secure & humble truth-teller, with strong project management and & senior stakeholder management skills
You are fluent in English with good written and verbal communication skills (Swedish is not a requirement)
Are open to changing and developing in the same pace as our organization at large. This means, you will be hired for a certain role and task, but need to be curious and open to that your focus and placement within the organization is likely to change with time.



We believe you will like this opportunity if:
Are passionate about Product organization; exploring, designing, and challenging what a modern tech team and organization that thrives both in terms of productivity & happiness, looks like.
You rather see yourself as a facilitator and provider of smart building blocks of structure for leaders to grow their people with, than the solo HR expert to whom leaders should turn for “the one correct way”.
You enjoy working both hands-on with facilitating groups and coaching individuals, as you do initiate and lead high-level projects.
You don’t mind context switching between different focus areas, levels of detail, and strategic height during your workweek.
You thrive in a culture where togetherness, inclusion, transparency, humbleness, professionalism, working smart, and having fun is key.



Working at Mentimeter should be a formative experience and a time in life to remember how we learned and developed in an environment both safe and challenging at the same time. We hope you want to be part of writing our adventure!
