Head of People & Culture

At Quatt, we’re on a mission to make sustainable home energy solutions accessible to all. With ambitious plans to empower 3 million households by 2030, we’ve grown rapidly from 25 to 300 employees – and we’re just getting started. As our Head of People & Culture, you’ll take the lead in shaping and scaling our people strategy, encouraging an inspiring, supportive workplace, and ensuring our culture evolves with us. ? If you’re an experienced People leader who combines strategic thinking with a people-first mindset, this is your chance!

What’s in it for you?

• Shape Our Future: As Head of People & Culture, you’ll work closely with the leadership team to further build the People strategy and align people with business goals as we scale.
• Real Impact: You’ll lead People & Culture through a growth phase, helping to maintain a culture that empowers employees, increases performance, and supports well-being.
• Be Part of Something Meaningful: Strengthen and optimize People systems, frameworks, and processes that will support our mission for years to come.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead and inspire a high-performing People team that can support our rapid growth while maintaining a culture of trust, collaboration, and transparency.
• Ensure our core values remain front and center as we scale. You’ll actively promote a high-performing workplace where employees feel valued and empowered.
• Help create frameworks for performance management, career development, and leadership that support employees at every stage of their journey with us.
• Manage compensation and benefits, and ensure all processes align with Dutch labor laws and CAO regulations.
• Continuously improve engagement and retention using data-driven insights to ensure our employees feel heard, valued, and supported.
• Drive efficiency across all People functions, from payroll and benefits to employee relations, while ensuring compliance and operational excellence.

We’re looking for a senior People & Culture professional who thrives in a high-growth environment and understands that great businesses are built on great people. You bring:

• 7+ years of HR experience, with at least some experience in a leadership role.
• A proven track record in scaling HR functions, ideally within a scale-up or high-growth company (300+ employees preferred).
• Deep knowledge of Dutch labor laws and HR best practices.
• Project management experience within HR.
• Strategic thinking with hands-on execution skills – You know how to build frameworks but also how to roll up your sleeves and make things happen.
• A highly empathetic approach – You prioritize people, understand diverse perspectives, and create an environment where employees feel valued and supported.
• Strong analytical and decision-making skills – You leverage data to shape strategies and drive continuous improvement.
• Experience with scaling across multiple countries is a strong plus.
• Current residency in the Netherlands or willing to relocate (as this is not a remote position).
• Fluency in Dutch (preferred) and English communication skills.

If you’re ready to make an impact at a fast-growing company with a clear vision for the future, we’d love to hear from you!
