Milan | Permanent | 5–7 years’ experience

MVRK is recruiting on behalf of a confidential company in the media and telecommunications sector. The business is moving toward a fully Agile organizational model, building a workplace defined by autonomy, collaboration, and rapid iteration.

As a People Partner, you will act as a connector between business and HR, helping teams embed Agile frameworks (Scrum/Kanban/SAFe) into their daily operations and shaping a culture that values continuous feedback, experimentation, and learning.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with leaders to translate Agile principles into people practices that promote empowerment, ownership, and accountability.
• Coach teams and managers on Agile ways of working, ensuring HR supports iterative planning, sprint reviews, and continuous improvement loops.
• Drive the integration of Agile frameworks (Scrum ceremonies, Kanban boards, feedback cadences, etc.) into HR processes such as performance management, onboarding, and learning.
• Contribute to the company’s Agile transformation roadmap, collaborating with Agile Coaches, Product Owners, and People Partners across squads and tribes.
• Support change management and cultural adoption, ensuring communication, transparency, and engagement across all levels of the organization.
• Work closely with Centers of Expertise (Talent, L&D, Total Rewards) to simplify processes and remove friction through experimentation and iteration.
• Analyze people data to identify performance and engagement trends, feeding insights back into Agile retrospectives and continuous improvement cycles.
  
  

• 5–7 years of experience in HR Business Partner or People Partner roles within complex or fast-evolving organizations.
• Proven experience working in Agile environments (ideally within squads, tribes, or cross-functional teams) and strong understanding of frameworks such as Scrum/Kanban/SAFe.
• Track record of coaching leaders and teams in Agile mindset and behaviours.
• A data-driven, experimental approach to HR (comfort with iteration, measurement, and adaptation).
• Excellent communication and influencing skills across all levels of the business.
• Fluency in Italian and English.
  
  

• The chance to play a central role in a company-wide Agile transformation.
• A collaborative, inclusive environment focused on learning, wellbeing, and continuous improvement.
• Professional development and exposure to cutting-edge organizational design.
• A flexible, modern workplace where people and innovation grow together.
