## Job description

Who are we

At Lokalise, we make it easy and profitable for businesses to expand into new markets. Our AI-powered localization platform helps companies manage both software and marketing content from a single, unified environment — ensuring every team speaks with one voice across every language and channel.

By automating workflows, integrating with over 60 tools, and centralizing translation memory and terminology, Lokalise enables product, engineering, and marketing teams to collaborate without friction and launch globally up to 10× faster and at 80% lower cost.

Trusted by thousands of businesses across more than 100 countries, Lokalise empowers millions of people worldwide to use digital services in their native languages. Backed by a customer-loved support team, our platform fits seamlessly into your design, development, and content workflows, helping you scale with consistency and control.

Location

While our company operates exclusively on a remote basis, you must reside and have the legal right to work in one of the following countries: the United Kingdom, Latvia, or Spain.

- This is a full-time, remote position.
- Please note that we do not engage on a B2B or contractor basis. We do not partner with search firms.

## About the Role

Lokalise's People team is responsible for building and sustaining the high-performance, distributed workforce that our business depends on. Our HRBPs own talent strategy across their business areas. This role owns the operational infrastructure that makes that strategy real.

As Senior HR Operations Lead, you will be responsible for designing, building, and continuously improving the systems, processes, and ecosystem relationships that determine the quality of the employee experience and, ultimately, the performance of our people. This role reports to the CHRO.

## What You Will Do

- Build and own the HR operating model that enables Lokalise's talent strategy — designing the systems, processes, and experiences that drive a high-performance organization
- Design the HR experiences — onboarding, performance, development, exits — that continuously increase the quality of talent at Lokalise
- Turn people data into operational intelligence that gives HRBPs and business leaders what they need to make proactive, high-quality talent decisions
- Design and own the HR calendar as a deliberate series of interventions that drive performance, compensation, and development outcomes across the business
- Build and own the HR technology and vendor ecosystem — including EOR partnerships across multiple countries — to scale with Lokalise's growth
- Integrate compliance across a distributed, multi-country workforce in a way that creates no friction for the business

## What You Must Have

- Experience operating as a senior individual contributor with full ownership of an HR operations domain
- Experience partnering with a mature HRBP and stakeholder ecosystem
- Experience making HR operational decisions based on business impact and commercial context
- Experience using people data to inform decisions and operational solutions design
- Demonstrated passion for building business first HR infrastructure — not simply maintaining existing processes or policy policing
- Experience in HR operations at senior level in a distributed technology or SaaS environment
- Experience managing EOR relationships and multi-country employment complexity
- Experience owning vendor relationships across HRIS, payroll, and benefits

Our Benefits

💰 Competitive salary and employee stock options. 🌍 Fully remote setup with flexible working hours. 🏢 Co-working budget for those days you want a change from your home office. 🌴 Flexible vacation policy to recharge when you need to. 🖥️ Home office setup budget: monitor, desk, ergonomics, whatever helps you do your best work. 📚 Learning & development budget to grow your skills and career. 🏥 Health insurance to keep you covered. 🧘 Wellness allowance to support your mental and physical well-being. 🤝 Great culture: remote but close-knit, daily lived values, constant push for bigger, better, winning.
