HR Generalist
Do you want to help shape how HR operates in a growing, entrepreneur-driven company with a big heart? Then this might be the role for you!
Auctionet is a marketplace where auction houses from Sweden, the UK, Finland, Spain, Germany, and Denmark sell furniture, art, design items, collectibles, and more. We are now in search of our first HR Generalist for our People team.
About the Role
As our HR Generalist, you’ll take on a wide-ranging and varied role, working hands-on across all areas of HR. You’ll support managers across the organization while helping us improve how we do things step by step.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Working closely with the Chief People Officer, supporting everything from HR administration to developing new ways of working.
- Ensuring our managers and employees use our HR system (Hailey HR) effectively, and driving its development.
- Developing our onboarding and offboarding processes.
- Supporting our recruitment processes – from role profile to signed contract.
- Supporting with employment contracts across the group and handling HR administration.
- Helping us remain a workplace where people thrive, grow, and want to stay.
- Supporting our Payroll Administrator in securing the accuracy of all payroll and benefit processes.
- Maintaining structure for documentation, templates, and contracts, and making sure everything is updated.
We aim to improve by 1% every day, and you’ll play a central role in building smart and effective solutions in a fast-paced company where we aim to be the best Employer and People team.
About the Team
We’re a small but mighty People team of three, fueled by heart, curiosity, and a healthy dose of freedom under responsibility. As a fairly new function in the company, we’re in build-mode – which means there’s tons of room for ideas, creativity, and shaping how we do HR. We also value the importance of having fun at work, because good vibes lead to great results!
Auctionet has around 170 employees and is the parent company of a wider group with approximately 400 colleagues across multiple countries.
About You
You’re someone who’s curious, structured, and eager to learn – someone who enjoys creating order, but doesn’t mind when things shift or evolve. You’re motivated by being part of something growing and changing, and you see opportunities where others might see uncertainty.
You like to take initiative, enjoy collaborating with others, and believe HR plays a key role in how a company thrives. Most importantly, you're excited to roll up your sleeves and contribute, while continuing to grow in your own HR journey.
To succeed in this role, we think you have:
- An education in Human Resources or a similar field.
- Some practical experience in recruitment and/or HR administration.
- Full proficiency in both Swedish and English, written and spoken – this is essential for daily communication.
- Bonus and not mandatory: Experience working with collective agreements and/or HR systems.
This role is based on-site at our office in central Stockholm, with the possibility to work remotely one day per week.
Our Recruitment Process
We have a straightforward process without unpleasant surprises.
We'll start of with a short phone interview and greet just to get a feeling if we could be right for each other or not.
We then have a few meetings (usually two or three) where we talk about you, the role and Auctionet - and you get the chance to talk to the people you will work closely with. In the process, we will also ask you to do a small take-home exercise. And in the end, we hope it feels like the perfect fit for both of us!
Apply By
We will be reviewing applications continuously, but please submit your application no later than 2025-05-30.
