Looking for Your Next Great Match? We Are Too.

At Spark Networks, we’re building platforms that bring people together - and we believe the same energy applies to our team. Right now, we’re looking for a People Operations & Workplace Coordinator who is passionate about creating a seamless and engaging employee experience. The right person understands the importance of all aspects of the People function, from onboarding, recruiting and office events to payroll and compliance. This role sits at the heart of it all, supporting key People Operations processes while helping make Spark a fun, organized, and people-first place to work. If you’re detail-oriented, proactive, and love a bit of behind-the-scenes magic, we’d love to meet you.

This role is onsite at our Berlin office at least 3 days a week. 


What You'll Do

  • Onboarding & Employee Experience: Give every new team member a warm Spark welcome. You’ll prepare onboarding materials, maintain compliant HR records (including NachwG requirements), and help roll out annual labor law updates, keeping everything organized and up to date.
  • People Operations Administration: Help keep things running smoothly behind the scenes. You’ll draft job confirmations, respond to unemployment office requests, prepare contract amendments, and issue reference letters, all with a focus on accuracy, compliance, and thoughtful documentation.
  • Recruiting & Recruiting Operations: Whether it’s scheduling interviews, interviewing candidates, keeping our candidate experience smooth, or helping the team stay organized behind the scenes, you’ll be a key player in bringing great people to Spark.
  • Payroll & Compliance Support: Keep payroll running smoothly, accurately, and in full compliance by managing HRIS updates and maintaining up-to-date team records. You’ll also play a key role in preparing documentation for audits and supporting broader compliance efforts across the People team. 
  • Health, Safety & Compliance: Support employee well-being by managing health registers, scheduling occupational health checks, and keeping compliance records current. (Bonus: We’ll sponsor your training to become a certified Sicherheitsbeauftragter!)
  • Office & Workplace Administration: Own the little things that keep our office humming - manage mail, order supplies, and make sure everything is where it needs to be.
  • Event & Culture Support: Help bring our workplace culture to life! You’ll assist in organizing team events, coordinating logistics, and working with vendors to make every gathering a good one.

  • You have a proactive, service-oriented mindset and a “let’s get it done” attitude.
  • You love working with people from different cultures and thrive in a global environment.
  • You’re naturally organized, detail-obsessed, and love bringing structure to chaos.
  • You enjoy planning and pulling off great team events that bring people together.

What You’ll Bring

  • Experience as an HR Generalist or People Ops Specialist in a startup or scaleup is a big plus (strong internship experience counts, too!).
  • Interest in global work - we’d love your help supporting US People Operations about 20% of the time.
  • Some knowledge of German and/or European labor law is great, but if you’re eager to learn, we’ll cover the cost.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in both English and German.
