Bio
Max Linden
Edith has been a truly dedicated and passionate team member, always pushing projects forward and finding ways to improve existing processes. She has implemented new onboarding experience and automated various processes, that have streamlined our people operations. Her ability to intuitively find good solutions and ability to execute them on her own enabled a great deal of efficiency for us. Her empathy towards colleagues, both new and existing, have greatly contributed to the positive experience of a new on- and offboarding. We will miss her contributions and wish her all the best for the future!

When Edith joined Hopkins, she was our first HR/People hire and there was little in terms of process or institutionalized culture. We were a typical early stage startup. Edith very quickly took full ownership of the role and all people-related matters, far beyond what I expected from her. Her sense of ownership, forward-thinking attitude, hands-on mentality - always paired with outstanding warmth in handling people matters - very quickly earned her not only my but everyone's trust throughout the organization. We will miss her here at Hopkins but I'm proud and sure that she will deliver exceptional value in all future endeavors. I'm excited to follow her path and very happy to recommend her anytime.
