(Senior) Manager People, Culture & Organization Development (m/f/d)

PROXITY is a pan-European real estate asset management and development platform established by Blackstone in 2025. The company manages and develops a high-quality logistics real estate portfolio across multiple European markets and is building a fully integrated operating platform to support its continued growth.

Position Summary

This role is centred on development in three equally important dimensions: our people, our culture and our organisation. Reporting to the Head of HR, you will translate business priorities into practical development initiatives, clear ways of working and future‑ready organisational solutions. You will work closely with leaders and teams across Europe, combining strategic thinking with hands‑on delivery.

What you will do

• Shape and implement a practical people and capability development agenda aligned with business needs.
• Build scalable development formats for employees and leaders, including onboarding, workshops, learning journeys and targeted interventions.
• Develop competency profiles, career pathways and knowledge‑sharing approaches that create clarity and support growth.
• Partner with leaders to identify capability gaps, strengthen leadership effectiveness and translate development needs into action.

Organization Development & Future‑Ready Solutions

• Review and develop processes, responsibilities, interfaces and governance to improve clarity, efficiency and organisational effectiveness.
• Support the continued evolution of the target operating model and help translate organisational changes into workable structures and routines.
• Lead selected organisation development and change initiatives from diagnosis and concept through implementation and adoption.
• Advance future‑oriented ways of working, including responsible AI adoption, automation, digital productivity and the skills required for technological change.
• Build pragmatic knowledge‑management and change‑enablement solutions that can scale with PROXITY’s growth.
• Bring PROXITY’s culture and leadership principles to life through clear behaviours, development formats and everyday practices.
• Design and facilitate team development, feedback and change formats that strengthen ownership, collaboration and performance.
• Support cross‑functional and cross‑country collaboration, helping teams create shared understanding and effective interfaces.
• Use employee and stakeholder feedback to identify themes and turn them into focused culture and engagement initiatives.

What you bring

• Several years of relevant experience in people, leadership and/or organisational development, culture, change management, process improvement or a related field.
• A strong track record of turning business needs into practical, well‑structured solutions and seeing initiatives through to implementation.
• Experience working with leaders and diverse stakeholders in a dynamic, international or fast‑growing environment.
• Confidence in facilitating workshops, development sessions and cross‑functional working groups.
• A sound understanding of organisational design, roles and responsibilities, process development and change adoption.
• Genuine interest in AI, digital transformation and the future of work, with the ability to connect technology with people and organisational development.
• Fluent German and English; additional European languages are an advantage.

How you work

• You enjoy building, improving and delivering, not only designing concepts.
• You create clarity, prioritise well and focus on solutions that work in practice.
• You build trust, connect perspectives and challenge constructively.
• You learn quickly and turn new ideas into relevant, responsible solutions.
• You can see the bigger picture while staying close to implementation and detail.
• You care about individual growth and organisational performance in equal measure.
