Background

About Vanice Rodrigues

Strategic HR Leader | Culture Builder | Remote-Ready & Results-Driven I don't just build HR departments — I build trust, strategy, and momentum. With 10+ years of experience across Europe and the US, I specialize in creating HR from scratch and scaling it to support high-performing, people-first cultures. From recruitment and payroll to business partnering and legal compliance, I’ve done it all — and I love the challenge of making complex people problems feel human again. Currently at Tillster, I lead cross-continental HR efforts (Portugal, EMEA, US), aligning people strategy with business outcomes. I act as the bridge between global leadership and local teams, driving integration, engagement, and operational clarity across cultures and time zones. What makes me different: I’ve built HR infrastructure from zero, multiple times. I’m both strategic and hands-on — I’ll craft policy and run payroll on the same day, if that’s what the team needs. I bring heart and data into every conversation — because HR isn’t about checking boxes, it’s about building trust. Wins I'm proud of: Integrated diverse teams across borders with seamless HR frameworks Led payroll and benefits operations for global orgs, always compliant, always people-first Trusted advisor to executives — translating business goals into human-centered strategies If you're building or scaling a team and need someone who can lead HR remotely, globally, and with purpose, let’s connect. Let’s talk — about culture, connection, and what great HR can really do.
