Head of People & Culture (f/m/d)

Shape the Future of Work at MissMP

We're not another loud tech company shouting for attention, we’re building tech that transforms everyday service experiences. At Miss Moneypenny Technologies, we’ve reimagined the mobile wallet card: a dynamic access point to the services people need, at the exact moment they need them. We’re building a new category and a new service layer for customer success.

Come join us to make sure we build and enable an awesome team to drive this revolution.

Backed by top-tier investors (Earlybird, b2venture) and growing faster than a dad joke at a Monday all-hands, we're seeking a Head of People & Culture (f/m/d) to architect the structures, rituals, and experiences that empower our team to thrive as we scale from 30+ people to something much bigger.

What You Bring

• Willingness to be hands-on in building and running processes yourself

• Strong understanding of the German job market, employment law, and regulatory requirements

• Ability to create clarity and systems in a fast-changing environment

• Strong communication and collaboration skills

• Full professional proficiency in English and German

• You’re not afraid to challenge C-Level (constructively). You bring your voice to the table.

Benefits

We’re a diverse, ambitious, and value-driven team made up of problem-solving superheroes, software wizards, sales gods and goddesses, industry darlings, design aficionados, product visionaries, fitness fanatics, "Mafiosi" masters, and perhaps even a few mini-golf legends. We work incredibly hard but have a blast doing it, with plenty of laughter and humor along the way. In short: You’ll definitely want to get to know us.

A job you can dance to like no one is watching.
