Great businesses are built by great people. Help us bring out the best in both.

At foodora, we're on a mission to deliver an amazing experience to our customers, partners and riders every day. Behind that mission is a fast-moving business, ambitious goals and people who make things happen.

We're now looking for an experienced People Partner to join our People & Culture team in Norway.

In this role, you'll work closely with leaders across the business, helping them navigate challenges, develop their teams and build an organization that performs and grows.

We're looking for someone who understands that great People partnering isn't just about providing HR support. It's about understanding the business, asking the right questions and helping leaders turn challenges into meaningful improvements.

As a People Partner, you'll be a trusted advisor to leaders and an important contributor to the development of our organization. Your role combines strategic business partnering with hands-on execution, giving you the opportunity to influence both how we work today and how we develop for the future.
 

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Partner with leaders: Act as a trusted advisor, providing guidance, coaching and constructive challenge on leadership, team effectiveness and people-related decisions.
   
• Drive organizational development: Identify opportunities to strengthen leadership, improve organizational effectiveness and support teams in achieving business objectives.
   
• Navigate complex people matters: Support leaders in employee relations, performance management, absence management, conflict resolution and employment law matters.
   
• Lead and improve People processes: Drive the successful implementation and continuous improvement of key processes, including performance management, engagement surveys, salary reviews and talent development.
   
• Turn insights into action: Use people data, employee feedback and organizational trends to identify challenges, prioritize opportunities and drive meaningful improvements.
   
• Support change and transformation: Partner with leaders through organizational changes, workforce planning and other business initiatives, ensuring effective implementation.
   
• Strengthen operational excellence: Ensure effective, compliant and consistent People processes throughout the employee lifecycle, including quality and accuracy in Workday and other HR systems.

You'll also contribute to the continuous development of our People & Culture function, working collaboratively with local and regional colleagues to improve how we support the business.

Qualifications

We're looking for an experienced HR professional who combines strong people expertise with business understanding, sound judgment and the ability to build trusted relationships.

We believe you'll bring:

• At least 5 years of relevant experience, preferably as an HR Business Partner, People Partner or in a similar broad HR role.
   
• Solid knowledge of Norwegian employment law and practical experience managing complex employee relations matters.
   
• Experience supporting leaders in organizational development, change management and key people processes.
   
• Strong business acumen and the ability to connect people priorities to business needs and outcomes.
   
• An analytical mindset, with the ability to translate data and insights into practical actions.
   
• Confidence working independently, managing multiple priorities and making well-informed recommendations.
   
• Experience with HR systems such as Workday and a strong ability to adopt new tools and processes.
   
• A relevant degree in HR, business, organizational psychology or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
   
• Excellent communication skills in both Norwegian and English.
   

Beyond your experience, we're interested in how you approach challenges, work with others and make things happen.

You're a trusted partner, not just an advisor. You build strong relationships, listen carefully and know when to support, challenge or ask the difficult questions.

You understand the bigger picture. You're curious about how the business works and can connect people challenges to organizational needs and priorities.

You take ownership. You don't stop at identifying problems or recommending solutions. You take initiative, drive progress and follow through.

You're pragmatic and solution-oriented. You balance people, business and legal considerations to find solutions that work in practice.

You're comfortable with change. You bring structure to complexity, adapt quickly and know how to prioritize when everything seems important.
