People Operations Specialist (Maternity Cover)

Join the People & Culture Team at Neurons – Where Innovation Meets Heart

At Neurons, we’re not just innovating, we’re revolutionizing how the world understands consumer behavior. By combining AI and neuroscience, we help leading global brands predict responses in seconds. It’s fast, it’s smart, and it’s changing marketing as we know it.

But behind the tech is something even more powerful: people. A team that genuinely cares for each other, and for those who make this transformation possible.

We’re now looking for a People Operations Specialist (maternity cover) to become the operational heartbeat of our People & Culture team. We’re moving quickly to bring someone on board to ensure continuity and keep our P&C operations running seamlessly during this period.

Reporting to the Director of People & Culture, you’ll ensure smooth, meaningful processes across the employee lifecycle - from the moment a candidate hits “apply” to their final day at Neurons. You’ll streamline systems, elevate experiences, and champion best practices that make Neurons a place where people feel seen, supported, and empowered.

This is your chance to join a high-impact team that mixes sharpness with humor, supports each other relentlessly, and takes pride in creating a workplace where culture isn’t just talked about, it’s lived. If you thrive on meaningful work, strong team spirit, and a forward-thinking mission, this could be your next adventure!

Our HQ is in Høje Taastrup (right by the station), with a smaller hub in Austin, Texas. All in all, you’ll be supporting a team of 85 fantastic employees.

What you’ll be doing

What we’re looking for

A strong understanding of the full employee lifecycle - from hiring to offboarding.
Experienced in using HRIS systems and tools, particularly HiBob and Teamtailor.
Knowledge of payroll coordination, benefits, and Danish labor law.
Excellent communication skills: you can coach managers and handle sensitive conversations with tact.

Process-driven mindset with a knack for improving workflows and leading HR projects.
Data-savvy: comfortable analyzing P&C data for decision-making.
Collaborative yet independent: you know when to partner and when to drive.
High integrity and discretion: you’ll handle confidential information daily.

Why join us?
