Are you a people-first HR professional with a passion for creating meaningful workplace experiences? Do you thrive in agile, fast-moving environments where your ideas are welcomed and your voice matters?
We’re partnering with a dynamic service-based organisation at the heart of Dublin city. They operate in a fast-paced, multicultural space supporting digital platforms within entertainment and tech. Their flat structure, collaborative culture, and employee-first mindset make them a standout employer for ambitious HR professionals.
As HR Generalist, you’ll take full ownership of the people agenda – everything from compliance and policy to performance, talent, culture, and engagement. This is a standalone role, perfect for someone who’s ready to step up and make a real impact.
What you'll be doing:
* Be the go-to for HR advice, supporting line managers through the full employee lifecycle

* Navigate ER issues with empathy and fairness
* Coordinate payroll, benefits, and bonus schemes
* Drive wellbeing and DEI initiatives with creativity and care
* Own performance and learning frameworks, identifying and closing development gaps
* Keep policies, HRIS and records compliant and up to date
* Run the office environment and vendor management like a well-oiled machine
What we're looking for:
* 3+ years in a generalist HR role, ideally in a standalone or SME environment
* Strong knowledge of Irish employment law
* A true people person who can build trust at all levels
* Someone who leads with heart but keeps things commercially grounded
* Organised, detail-oriented, and confident juggling multiple responsibilities
* You enjoy mentoring and helping others grow – it’s just who you are.
What’s on offer:
* €47,200 base + discretionary bonus (10%)
* €3,360 flexible benefits package to tailor to your needs
* 4-day working week (10hr shifts) with one 5-day week per month
* Generous annual leave (200 hours)
* Hybrid model – up to 40% remote working + added remote flexibility (incl. 2-week block, bank holidays, weekend hybrid extra, menstrual leave)
* Income protection, death-in-service, WFH support and more
* Social, inclusive, supportive team culture
If you’re an HR all-rounder looking to take the reins in a standalone role where your work truly matters – this could be the one. Apply now or reach out for a confidential chat.
