As General Manager of Operations at Mozaik, a rapidly growing tech startup in Germany, Chris navigates a dynamic environment where change is constant. His work is hugely cross functional and he stands at the intersection of HR, Finance, IT, and Operations. His goal is to create consistency and improve internal workflows to increase efficiency and reduce costs.

The company has ambitious growth plans, for context, they’ve achieved an impressive +100% YoY to date since founding. To continue on this trajectory, the company recognises automation as a critical priority. Chris's challenge? Implementing systems that can scale with the company's growth and prevent manual processes from becoming bottlenecks that hinder future expansion. They were also keen to operationalise expansion plans beyond their German HQ, with one of their employees relocating to Australia.

We were originally working with Remote, as DEEL was too expensive - but we knew we needed an all-in-one platform for future growth, and that was the key differentiator with Rippling. We knew their growth plans for Germany and knew they could scale with us. They were also better value than what we were currently getting with Remote.

Chris recognised that fragmented systems and manual processes would inevitably become growth bottlenecks - a common challenge for fast-growing startups. With strategic foresight, he searched for a future-proof solution for his operations functions. After evaluating solutions, he chose Rippling for its comprehensive capabilities, scalability, and alignment with Mozaik's integration goals.

We were juggling several tools for one employee — it was insane. Rippling cut that down to one login and zero headaches.

Rippling's all-in-one platform offered clear advantages - better value than Remote for EOR services and creating a more streamlined experience for everyone involved in the process.

The employee felt the onboarding side was really easy and seamless. From implementation to onboarding, our EOR employee was set up in just two weeks!

Rippling has reduced administrative and legal workload, eliminating the need to hire headcount dedicated to managing international employees. This has allowed his team to focus on strategic initiatives rather than getting bogged down in time-consuming compliance processes.

Looking ahead, Chris plans to leverage Rippling's expanding German product roadmap to consolidate their current multiple systems (HRIS, EOR, surveys and time tracking) into one.

Rippling is thinking about things differently than their competitors. Their vision is consolidation of People Data, and I think it’s the future. Instead of adding more systems, they've created a platform where employee data is entered once and flows everywhere it's needed.

“Rippling understands the relationships between people, departments, and systems within a business. By putting employees at the center and addressing every touchpoint - from HRIS to onboarding to hiring - Rippling isn't just another HR tool. They're revolutionising how fast-growing companies like ours manage their most valuable asset: their people."
