PeopleOperationsApprentice

We're looking for a People Operations apprentice to join Datadog's EMEA Compliance team in Paris - the team responsible for ensuring our employees across EMEA are well-supported and that our HR processes run smoothly and in compliance with local requirements. As part of this team, you'll work alongside HR professionals to handle day-to-day administrative tasks, coordinate with internal teams and external providers, and help maintain the operational backbone that employees and stakeholders rely on every day. This is a hands-on role where you'll gain real exposure to HR compliance, immigration coordination, and employment law in an international environment. If you're detail-oriented, organized, and eager to learn how a global HR function operates, this apprenticeship is for you. About the role As a People Operations apprentice, you will combine theoretical learning at your school with practical, hands-on experience supporting this team on a wide range of administrative and operational tasks. You will interact regularly with HR (People Business Partners, People Solutions, Payroll, Benefits, Center of Expertises), Legal and Recruiting teams, as well as external providers across EMEA countries. Over the course of your apprenticeship, you will progressively take on more responsibilities as you become familiar with our processes, tools, and the regulatory landscape we operate in. What you'll do Prepare and issue standard HR documents including employment contracts, addendum, probation period letters, and other employee relations documentation Draft and manage correspondence related to accommodation requests (e. g. reduced working hours, therapeutic part-time arrangements), ensuring timely follow-up and proper filing Monitor employee absence reports and flag relevant cases to the appropriate HR and Payroll teams Coordinate occupational health appointments for employees in EMEA (when applicable), including scheduling, employee communications, and tracking completion Support
