People Systems Specialist

At TÜV SÜD we are passionate about technology. Innovations impact our daily lives in countless ways, and we are dedicated to being a part of that progress. We test, we audit, we inspect, we advise. We never stop challenging ourselves for the safety of society and its people. We breathe technology, we strive for professional excellence, and we leave a mark. We take the future into our hands. We are TÜV SÜD.

We are in the process of significantly expanding our Romanian operations in
Bucharest
and we are establishing a dedicated HR function, to set local People services foundations, and eventually join the regional People Operations Delivery team (Europe).

As a Full-time HR Professional, You Will

• Set up and run core HR processes to support the full employee life cycle in Romania – from onboarding to exit
• Lead and coordinate recruitment efforts in close collaboration with our HQ recruiting team and external agencies, actively engaging in sourcing, screening, and candidate management
• Ensure local labour law compliance, bringing in your working knowledge of Romanian employment legislation and applying it to real-life situations
• Serve as the go-to person for employees and managers on site for HR-related topics
• Build strong partnerships with our HR teams across Europe, ensuring alignment and knowledge-sharing
• Work closely with other HR Operations colleagues in the region and the responsible regional HR Business Partner
• Lay the foundation for future regional or specialized roles as the site matures and becomes part of our broader People Solutions Europe team
• Proven experience in an HR Generalist or similar role, ideally in an international company with a growing headcount
• Recruitment expertise is essential – you are confident in active search, shortlisting, and collaborating with recruitment partners
• Working knowledge of Romanian labour law and understanding of local labour market practices and salary benchmarks
• Professional fluency in Romanian and English; German is a significant plus
• A hands-on, problem-solving mindset with the ability to work independently and build from scratch
• Willingness to grow with the role – from local HR setup to future involvement in regional projects and digital transformation initiatives
• Experience with SAP Success Factors, notably Recruitment, or another Applicant Tracking System
• Experience with payroll outsourcing and other HR-related vendor relations (e.g. external recruitment providers)
• Help us shape a strong foundation for our growing Bucharest site.

At TÜV SÜD, we believe that quality, trust, and innovation are built through people. As we expand our presence in Bucharest, we are looking for an experienced
People Operations Partner
to establish and lead local HR operations during an exciting phase of growth.
