Summary

Experienced and people-focused HR professional currently based in Kraków, now open to exciting career opportunities beyond my home city. With a strong background in employee relations, talent development, and business partnering, I am ready to bring my skills and experience to organizations that previously felt out of reach due to location. I am fully prepared to relocate and contribute to forward-thinking companies where I can have a real impact on people and business success.
