Welcome to our team, where #NewMe is not just a slogan – it's a vision! We are Notino People, a group passionate about beauty and dedicated to pushing the boundaries of European e-commerce across 28 markets.

With a turnover exceeding 737 million EUR and rapid expansion into new markets, we continue to grow at an exceptional pace.

Our headquarters in Brno is home to most of our strategic and support functions – from technology and product to marketing, operations, logistics and HR. We connect the world of beauty with advanced technology, innovation, and customer obsession. A strong culture, top talent from across Europe, and high-performance teams are at the heart of our success.

We are now looking for an inspiring and business-driven HR Director, who will define and execute the people strategy across all countries where Notino operates. This is a key leadership role with direct impact on our growth, organizational design, employer brand, leadership capability and overall employee experience.

• Provide clear recommendations supported by data and business implications.
• Strengthen leadership capabilities in people management – coaching, feedback, performance, change leadership.

Shape Culture & Employer Brand

• Co-lead the evolution of Notino’s culture – performance-driven, innovative, customer-centric and built on ownership.
• Strengthen employer branding and employee value proposition across HQ, tech, marketing, logistics and retail.
• Use data (engagement surveys, eNPS, turnover, performance, hiring funnels) to guide decisions and prioritization.
