Senior People Compliance Specialist, EMEA at Gitlab

This role is designed for a seasoned HR professional with a deep understanding of labor relations and works council management within the EMEA region. The ideal candidate has direct experience navigating the complex "inform and consult" cycles specific to Germany, the Netherlands, or France. Because the company operates as a fully remote, asynchronous organization, this position requires someone who is not only a subject matter expert in European labor law but also a disciplined project manager capable of documenting processes clearly. The standout benefit of this position is the "all-remote" culture, offering significant flexibility and a focus on asynchronous work that respects time zones. As a senior-level specialist, you will have high-level visibility, partnering directly with Legal and People Business Partners to shape compliance strategy. The total rewards package is robust, featuring equity compensation, an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), and a "Growth and Development Fund" to support your professional advancement. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have managed works council engagements (Mitbestimmung, CSE, or Adviesrecht) for a multinational company. * Are fluent in English and proficient in French. * Excel at translating complex legal requirements into standardized, repeatable HR processes. * Thrive in a remote, documentation-heavy environment where AI is integrated into daily workflows.
