People Operations Specialist

Do you have extensive experience in HR and wish to find a position with meaningful contributions? Do you thrive in a vibrant environment, balancing operational HR tasks with continuous improvements? Then this might be the opportunity for you!

About the Role

As a People Operations Specialist, you will contribute to maintaining effective and service-oriented HR operations throughout our organization. You’ll be the go-to expert for HR administration, employee life cycle processes, compliance, and HR system improvements. Your focus will be on delivering high-quality HR support while also identifying opportunities to optimize and standardize the way we work.

This role is for you with solid HR experience, and who understand the complexities of HR processes in a matrix organization, and are comfortable working in a structured yet evolving environment with many stakeholders.

What You’ll Do

• Provide expert day-to-day HR operational support throughout the employee lifecycle, from onboarding to offboarding.
• Handle complex HR matters such as union negotiations, salary mapping (lönekartläggning), employee cases, and rehabilitation processes.
• Ensure compliance with local laws, regulations, company policies, and collective and local agreements.
• Collaborate with internal stakeholders to develop and/or improve HR processes and systems, and ensure a smooth transition from HR projects to effective operation.
• Act as an advisor on HR policies and practices.

You’ll combine effective HR administration with a service minded approach towards colleagues, employees and leaders.

Why Join Us?

At GlobalConnect, we’re building the digital infrastructure that connects the Nordics, and our People & Culture team is essential in supporting this purpose. Based in Stockholm, you’ll collaborate closely with colleagues within both Operations and other People & Culture functions—such as Talent Acquisition, HR Business Partners, and HRIS—both locally and across the Nordic region, including Denmark, Norway, Finland, and Germany.

In our vibrant work environment, some responsibilities may be tailored to individual countries, but the Nordic People & Culture team works together to maintain alignment, share insights, honor milestones, and uplift one another.

At the heart of what we do is a focus on streamlining and ensuring delivery of intuitive and efficient people processes and frameworks, and providing the business with the people insights needed to succeed.

Whether you’re conducting day-to-day operational support or working on refining our people processes, you’ll contribute with your skills and be adding value every step of the way, as we continue to evolve and improve our processes, tools, and collaboration.

We also believe in growth and development—both within your current role and through taking on new challenges. Depending on your interests and ambitions, there are opportunities to deepen your expertise, take ownership of cross-functional initiatives, or drive projects in areas you’re passionate about.

We're looking for you who thrive in being part of a journey—building and transforming as we grow and mature. You will be well-prepared for this journey by having the following attributes:

• Extensive experience in HR operations within a Nordic or international matrix organization
• A comprehensive understanding of HR processes, systems, and compliance
• Experience with HRIS systems (SAP SuccessFactors or similar)
• Great communication skills and fluency in English and Swedish

We are looking forward to receiving your application!
