At Metroscope, we’ve built solid HR foundations, and are now looking for an experienced People Lead to take over and elevate our people processes while continuing to support our team with care and clarity.

As People Lead, you will be responsible for overseeing and continuously improving our People strategy and operations.

  • Guarantee a smooth payroll and personnel admin workflow, supported by our tools and partners.

Why Join Us?

• A mission-driven company at the crossroads of tech and industrial / energy transition.

• High ownership, real impact, and short decision-making cycles.

• A chance to grow and shape the People function in a thoughtful and forward-looking environment.

You’ll thrive in this role if:

• You have a solid understanding of People Operations (admin, payroll, employment law, etc.).

• You speak English and French fluently

• You’re familiar with various types of organizations and team structures (ideally tech / industry ones).

• You have a strong ability to combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution.

• You are a collaborative person:

  • You know how to work alongside Finance and Admin teams.

  • You love to share and educate managers / employees to HR topics

Nice to have:

• Experience in talent acquisition is a plus, but not mandatory

• Managerial experience is appreciated, but not required for the initial scope.

• Stage 1 - 📞 Screening Call - 30min: high level discussion to get to know you, check mandatory requirements for the role, answer your questions.

• Stage 2: 👨‍💻 Role technical interview 1h-1h30: to assess your skills for the role, we’ll deep dive into past experiences, and ask some situational / behavioral based questions.

• Stage 3: 📸 Stakeholders interviews: 2x 30-40 min with stakeholders you would interact with frequently

  • CEO interview

  • Interview with 1 manager

All interviews don’t have to take place at the office (Paris Saint Lazare) but we expect you to come there at least once during the process.

To smoothen and speed up the process, we might group stages.
