About Ledger
We’re a team of experts pushing the limits of what’s possible, united by our common goal to unlock true freedom through digital ownership, making technology accessible for all. We believe in a world where users, creators and enterprises manage their value with ownership and freedom. Our curiosity drives us to innovate, empowering individuals on a global scale. We believe change is constant and our team moves forward as one, with a culture of problem-solving where every employee is empowered and supported to challenge tradition and create solutions. Our mission is simple: to make self-custody accessible and give people the keys to their own financial futures. If you want to make a true impact, we want you to join us at Ledger.
At Ledger, we’re proud to be the global platform for digital assets and Web3, with over 20% of the world’s crypto assets secured through our Ledger devices. With our headquarters in Paris, and offices in Vierzon, Grenoble, Montpellier, London, Portland, Geneva, Zurich and Central Singapore, we have a team of around 600 professionals developing a variety of products and services to enable individuals and companies to securely buy, store, swap, grow and manage crypto assets – including the Ledger hardware wallets line with more than 7.5 millions units already sold in 200 countries.
The Mission:
We’re looking for a sharp, structured operator to own payroll and HR operations end-to-end on a fixed-term basis — someone equally comfortable navigating compliance deadlines and redesigning a process from scratch. You’ll sit at the core of our People function, touching everything from monthly payroll to international mobility and employer-of-record partnerships.
Key responsibilities include :
-
Payroll & compliance
End-to-end management of monthly payroll runs, variable elements, and statutory filings (DSN). You’ll make sure nothing slips — and spot issues before they become problems.
-
Immigration & international mobility
Managing employee visa applications, work permits, and international hires — working to strict legal deadlines across multiple jurisdictions.
-
Employer of Record (EOR) management
Structuring and overseeing EOR arrangements where we don’t have a local entity — contract setup, local payroll coordination, and third-party provider management.
-
Apprenticeships, internships & OPCO
Administering apprenticeship contracts and internship agreements — pay scales, OPCO relations, funding, amendments, and liaison with partner institutions.
-
Equity & mandatory reporting
Tax and declarative aspects of employee shareholding (free shares, stock options), plus mandatory reporting including INSEE surveys and BDESE contributions.
-
Employee lifecycle & process improvement
Owning HR processes from onboarding to offboarding — and continuously improving them. You won’t just maintain the system; you’ll help evolve it.
What We’re Looking For :
-
Payroll expertise (French payroll)
-
DSN and statutory filings
-
Immigration case management
-
EOR and international operations
-
OPCO and apprenticeship frameworks
-
Equity administration (AGA / stock options)
-
Process design mindset
-
Rigorous and deadline-driven
-
At least 5 years of experience in an HR Ops team, in a fast-pace environment

“What really blew me away was how genuine and earnest everyone is. There is no “you’re on your own” mentality, I had the opportunity to learn the ropes at my own pace, observe, ask questions and find out how to optimize things to work based on my preferences. My team especially, is helping me relearn what a healthy work relationship looks like. We support each other and there’s no gatekeeping on projects, technique or skill.”
