HR and Workplace Coordinator
You know that bit where every company says they’re “changing the world”? Yeah, it can feel a little forced. But we like to think our story actually has some realness to it.
Our story begins with Shadi Bitar and Ninos Malki, who came to Sweden from Syria as kids and discovered that books could be a bridge - helping them learn the language, understand the culture, and explore new worlds.
A thought emerged, what if everyone could have that? And just like that, Nextory was born - your all-access pass to read, listen, and discover new perspectives without limits.
And now, we’re on a quest to find an HR & Workplace Coordinator. Someone as passionate as we are about creating a welcoming, well-functioning workplace and supporting our people throughout their employee journey.
Let us tell you about the role 📖
As a HR and Workplace Coordinator at Nextory, you will make sure everything around our people and workplace runs smoothly. You will coordinate key HR processes, elevate the employee experience and bring energy and order to our Stockholm office. You will be part of our HR team, a collaborative and high-energy group - just look at us ⬇️

As HR & Workplace coordinator will be responsible for:
Coordinating and administering people processes, HR documentation and day-to-day HR operations.
Ensuring a smooth employee experience by maintaining organized and up-to-date HR systems, policies and records.
Owning the Stockholm office environment. Keeping it structured, welcoming and well-functioning while managing suppliers, purchases, and practical administration.

The main character we’re looking for 👀
We believe you are a structured and organized person with a strong service mindset and great attention to detail.

The Nextory way of working 🏠
At Nextory, we believe a strong and inclusive culture is key to our success - and that culture flourishes when we meet and collaborate in person as much as possible. That’s why we spend the majority of the working time at our beautiful office!
We are based in Stockholm, Sweden, with offices in Paris and Bangalore. Our hybrid work policy includes four days in the office and Wednesdays as a work-from-home day.
