Stevan Perovic (he/him/his)

Head of People Operations at Gooten

HR is my passion. No, seriously. I have a Master's Degree in HR, and I used to work as an HR Analyst at a German company before joining Gooten. I also coached my college's case study teams for international competitions, which is great because you get out-of-the-box solutions from them and question the status quo by getting new ideas.

As for Gooten, as someone that's been here for 7+ years, I love the fact that it's never boring. There are always new opportunities and challenges that give you the opportunity to learn and adapt. Another reason why I like working here is the people- it's a fun and productive work environment, and you can always count on people helping you if you're stuck.

In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, learning languages, art history buff, karaoke, and dancing in clubs on a Saturday night. I like to think that I cook well, but my cat would probably disagree.
