Job Description

About Wolt

At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.

Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.

About the Role

As an Employee Relations Specialist, you’ll be the go-to expert for complex employee matters, helping leaders make fair, consistent, and legally sound decisions while keeping our culture respectful, human, and inclusive.

You’ll work closely with HR, Legal, and Leadership to navigate sensitive situations, manage risk, and continuously improve how we support our people. Please note that this role is dedicated exclusively to Employee Relations; candidates should have substantial, hands-on ER experience, as this is not an HR Generalist or HR Operations position.

What You’ll Do

Act as a trusted advisor to managers and employees on employee relations and labor law matters

Handle complex and sensitive employee cases, including performance concerns, misconduct, grievances, and conflicts

Lead and support internal investigations (e.g. code of conduct, harassment, whistleblowing cases)

Support disciplinary actions and offboarding processes in a fair, compliant, and people-centric way

Partner closely with HR Business Partners, Legal, Compliance, and external counsel when needed

Collaborate with employee representatives / works councils where applicable

Ensure compliance with local labor laws, internal policies, and global ER standards
