About Alpar Szoke

I help high-growth companies scale their HR organizations to match their business ambitions. With 10+ years in People Strategy & HR Technology, I have worked closely with CHROs and leadership teams to turn HR into a strategic growth enabler. At Kyriba, a global fintech SaaS recognized as a leader in cloud treasury and finance solutions, I: Partnered with the CHRO to reshape the HR leadership team, aligning capabilities with future growth needs Supported the design of the first global HR organization structure and a multi-year strategy roadmap Coordinated the global labor law audit which valued the company at over $3B and resulted in General Atlantic’s minority investment Helped evaluate and expand our HR technology stack (Workday + vendors) to maximize ROI Managed a multi-million HR budget ensuring cost-effective scaling of people initiatives & technology Before that, as a SuccessFactors Solution Advisor, I worked with DAX companies to ensure €10M+ HRIS investments delivered measurable business outcomes. Prior to this, I operated at the highest level of SAP, supporting the Senior Vice President for Global Sales with strategic projects in driving SAP’s own HR transformation journey through the introduction of an evolved HR operating model. Where I add value: Helping fast-growth companies design scalable HR functions with a tech first mindset Advising CHROs and Boards on people strategy, org design & leadership capability Optimizing HR technology (Workday, SuccessFactors, AI-driven tools) for scale I enjoy connecting with leaders who are building HR for growth and looking at HR through a technology-first lens.
