Experienced interim HR capacity for a growing scale-up
A Nordic scale-up in digital infrastructure is going through a period of strong growth. The company is hiring continuously, and the HR function is essential for payroll, onboarding and day-to-day support for managers and employees.
When an employee in the function did not live up to expectations, the company chose to end the collaboration. This left a key role vacant at a time when operations could not be put on hold, and when finding the right permanent replacement takes time.
Spitze is therefore providing an experienced People & Culture specialist until a new employee is hired – and to hand over knowledge and documentation, leaving the company even better equipped for the future.
Expert capacity for a defined period
The company needed someone who could take on the role without lengthy training. That required experience with Danish employment law and payroll administration, and the ability to settle into an organisation that changes quickly.
Spitze presented several consultants from our network who matched the assignment, and the client chose the profile that best fitted the team and the need – a consultant who could be in place within a few days and had the capacity to extend the assignment if recruiting the permanent hire takes longer than expected.
It was crucial for our client that we made it easy for them to buy – through a structured, simple process that took a burden off their shoulders, and clear terms that made the decision straightforward.
Knowledge that stays in the company
An interim solution must not leave a gap when it ends. The consultant therefore documents their work continuously according to Spitze’s standard. When the assignment ends, both the documentation and the observations the consultant has made along the way are handed over.
This gives the new employee a better starting point and gives management a basis for improving processes in the People & Culture function.
What we deliver to the client
The consultant runs People & Culture operations in Denmark and works closely with the company’s global payroll function and external payroll provider. Tasks include:
• Employment contracts, addenda and employee data
• Pre-boarding, onboarding and offboarding
• Enquiries from employees and managers in the People & Culture inbox
• Danish payroll, from time registration and corrections to approved pay
• Holiday rules, pensions, insurance and parental leave in day-to-day HR administration
