People and Culture Business Partner

We are looking for a People & Culture Business Partner to help us build clearer team structures, stronger headcount planning, better manager enablement, and scalable People & Culture processes.

In this role, you will partner closely with team leads to translate business needs into practical people solutions. Your work will directly contribute to how we structure teams, clarify roles, support people decisions, and scale Wellis responsibly.

This is a good fit for someone who combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution: structured, pragmatic, analytical, confident enough to challenge, and able to turn messy people topics into clear plans.

About Wellis

Wellis is a fast-growing healthtech scale-up reinventing healthcare. We are building the first truly integrated health platform in the Netherlands, offering on-demand care for everyday health needs such as weight loss, hair loss, sexual health, and more.

Our platform covers the full journey: from diagnosis and medical assessment to prescription and delivery at home. By combining medical expertise, technology, and data, we make healthcare smarter, more accessible, more personal, and easier to use.

We are growing quickly, which means we are building the structures, teams, products, and processes that will help us scale responsibly. You will join an ambitious, international team where ownership is encouraged, collaboration is key, and impact is visible from day one.

About the role & team

As our People & Culture Business Partner , you will join the People & Culture team and report to Veronica (People & Culture Lead).

The People & Culture team is focused on building simple, scalable, and well-documented people practices that help managers lead well and help teams grow intentionally. You will work closely with team leads, the leadership team, and People & Culture colleagues in a practical, fast-moving environment where clarity, ownership, and good judgment matter.

In the first months, your focus will be on understanding team needs, clarifying role ownership, supporting headcount planning, and building practical People frameworks for managers. Over time, you will help us professionalise how we approach organisation design, performance, onboarding, manager enablement, people analytics, and employee development.

Success in this role means managers have more clarity, teams are structured more intentionally, people processes are simple and easy to use, and People & Culture becomes a stronger business partner as Wellis grows.
