What I'm looking for

I'm seeking remote EMEA People Operations or Global Mobility roles in remote-first companies where I can streamline HR processes, ensure compliance, support international hires, and grow into broader HR operations leadership.

I am a results-driven People Operations and Global Mobility specialist with over three years managing full employee lifecycle processes, international immigration, and HR operations across EMEA.

At Bener Law Office I managed full-cycle immigration and work permit processes for 100+ expatriate employees, coordinated Sakarya Gas (80+ employees) and Diyarbakır Oil Drilling (20+ staff) projects, implemented case management workflows that reduced processing times by 20%, and digitized HR documentation to cut paper usage by 90%.

I excel in stakeholder communication, GDPR-compliant HRIS management (Workday, BambooHR, Deel), cross-cultural collaboration, and training junior staff; I seek remote-first EMEA roles where I can streamline HR processes, ensure compliance, and support international mobility.
