TALENT & PEOPLE MANAGER

TALENT & PEOPLE MANAGER

Operational HR, Personnel Administration & Payroll

Tigermilk HQ | Paris | CDI | Cadre

Context

Tigermilk is a fast-growing restaurant group. Our ambition is simple: to build strong teams and give them the means to succeed.

To support our development, we are looking for a Talent & People Manager, a true operational HR reference for the group.

The position combines three essential dimensions: ensuring reliable personnel administration and payroll, supporting teams and managers in the field, and driving our recruitment.

We are looking for someone who is as comfortable with technical and administrative HR topics as they are with the human challenges of a restaurant network. A pragmatic, rigorous, autonomous profile capable of getting hands-on with operations.

Your mission

To be the guarantor of Tigermilk's smooth HR functioning, from recruitment to employee departure.

Your priority will be to secure and structure our HR operations, while supporting managers and contributing to building and retaining the best teams.

Your responsibilities

1. Personnel Administration & Payroll — Your priority

You will be responsible for the reliability and compliance of all our HR administrative processes.

• Manage and master personnel administration from end to end: contracts, amendments, DPAE, probation periods, entries and exits, end of contract, and mandatory documents.
• Guarantee the monitoring of absences, sick leave, medical visits, mutual insurance, pension/protection, residence permits, and work authorizations.
• Ensure rigorous payroll control: consistency of contractual data, variables, absences, overtime, bonuses, extras, payslips, and final settlement documents.
• Identify, understand, and resolve payroll anomalies in coordination with Operations and payroll contacts.
• Be a reliable point of reference for employees regarding their administrative and compensation questions, with a constant focus on responsiveness and quality of service.
• Anticipate regulatory deadlines, secure files, and contribute to the proper preparation of social audits.
• Ensure the reliability of our HR data and tools, notably PayFit, Workforce, and our internal management tool.

We are looking for true operational expertise in ADP and payroll, not just supervision experience. You must be able to understand a file in detail, check the information, and intervene directly when a situation requires it.

2. Labor Law & Manager Support

• Advise restaurant directors and operational teams on daily HR issues.
• Support and secure disciplinary procedures, sensitive individual situations, mutual termination agreements, and departures.
• Ensure compliance with labor law, collective agreements, and internal procedures.
• Coordinate complex files with our external legal counsel when necessary.
• Structure simple and consistent practices to guarantee sound HR execution in all our restaurants.

3. Recruitment & Talent

• Drive and structure the monitoring of the group's recruitment needs with Operations.
• Directly take charge of recruiting managers and strategic profiles.
• Support restaurant directors in their field recruitment, by improving selection methods, timelines, and application tracking.
• Guarantee effective onboarding processes and probation period monitoring.
• Contribute to employee retention, development, and internal mobility.

Our objective: recruit effectively, structure teams, and sustainably limit turnover.

4. Field Presence & Proximity to Teams

• Be regularly present in our restaurants, approximately 1 to 2 days per week.
• Develop a relationship of trust with directors, managers, and employees.
• Understand the realities of front-of-house and kitchen roles, their constraints, and their human challenges.
• Identify recurring HR issues and provide concrete solutions.

5. Structuring & Continuous Improvement

• Improve the reliability, simplicity, and automation of HR processes to support the group's growth.
• Implement indicators and operational monitoring: headcount, turnover, absenteeism, recruitment, administrative situations, and deadlines.
• Clarify responsibilities between HR and Operations and ensure efficient handling of topics.
• Coordinate and support the HR team with a highly operational approach.

Profile sought

• Proven experience in generalist HR, with strong practical expertise in personnel administration and payroll.
• Demonstrated autonomy regarding contracts, entries and exits, disciplinary procedures, payroll variables, payslip control, and regularizations.
• Solid knowledge of French labor law.
• Experience in operational recruitment and manager support.
• Experience in restaurant, hospitality, retail, logistics, or a multi-site environment with high employee volumes is appreciated.
• Good mastery of HR and payroll tools; knowledge of PayFit is particularly appreciated.
• Excellent level of organization, rigor, reliability, and attention to detail.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously and solve problems autonomously.
• Service-oriented, excellent interpersonal skills, and a taste for field work.
• Professional English.

What will make the difference

• You master technical HR topics, but you don't like staying behind a desk.
• You are as capable of analyzing a payslip as you are of supporting a restaurant director in a sensitive situation.
• You are able to identify a problem, take charge, and resolve it.
• You appreciate entrepreneurial, fast-paced, and evolving environments.
• You know how to structure without complicating, with a pragmatic and solution-oriented approach.
