HR Business Partner - Commercial

Betsson — Malta

We’re looking for a commercially focused HR Business Partner to join our Malta HR team and partner closely with our Commercial functions as the business continues to grow. This is an ideal opportunity for a hands-on, operational HR professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys building strong partnerships while delivering practical people solutions. As our HR Business Partner, you will provide dedicated support to our Commercial teams, which includes SEO, Affiliate, Marketing, CRM and more.

The Wow

Reporting to the Director HR Business Support, you will work closely with Commercial people leaders to provide practical coaching and guidance across employee relations, performance management and day-to-day people matters, including PIPs where required. You will also collaborate with HR colleagues across other regions supporting Commercial teams, ensuring a consistent and joined-up approach across the business.

A taster of what you will be involved with: 

• Partner closely with people managers and key stakeholders across Commercial teams to provide proactive, practical support on employee relations matters and day-to-day people challenges.
• Support the delivery of key business priorities by partnering closely with Commercial leaders and helping to embed a strong, performance-driven culture.
• Act as a trusted first point of contact for HR matters across the Commercial teams, providing clear, timely and pragmatic guidance to managers and employees.
• Ensure all HR activity is delivered in line with Maltese employment law, internal policies and best practice, with a strong focus on consistency and compliance.
• Provide hands-on support across the employee lifecycle, including probation, performance management, PIPs, contract changes and offboarding.
• Take an active role in employee relations case management, supporting managers through performance concerns, conduct matters and workplace issues, with appropriate escalation where needed.
• Build credible relationships with stakeholders at all levels, coaching managers to handle people issues confidently and effectively in a commercially minded way.
• Identify opportunities to improve HR processes and ways of working, contributing to a more efficient operation and a stronger employee experience.

What we are looking for:

• Minimum of 4+ years’ HR experience, ideally within iGaming or another fast-paced, commercially driven environment.
• Strong operational HR capability, with a hands-on approach and the ability to manage a busy workload effectively.
• Proven experience supporting managers with employee relations, performance management and PIP processes.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to work effectively across different levels of the organisation.
• A high level of discretion, sound judgement and the ability to handle sensitive and confidential matters appropriately.
• Commercial awareness and the ability to balance people needs with business priorities in a practical and solution-focused way.
• Due to the nature of the role, you will be expected to be onsite 5 days a week.

Why join us?

• Join a vibrant, fast-paced industry at the forefront of Malta’s online gaming scene.
• Work within a collaborative, people-focused HR team that values innovation and proactive thinking.
• Grow your career in an environment that encourages ownership, continuous learning and development.

Much like riding a rollercoaster, sometimes life at Betsson can be lightning fast with twists and turns but always FUN! Then again, what else would you expect from a business 75% millennial and 1700 strong, spread across 7 offices with 900 based out of our Malta HQ alone! We recognise it may not be for the faint-hearted, but if you’re a go-getter, initiator and adrenaline junkie, always striving to push the boundaries and challenge yourself, then you’ll fit right in.
