About the job

When questions about salary and personnel arise, it should be easy to get the right answer.

Behind the simple answer lies, of course, the management of wages, contracts, agreements, negotiations and deadlines, but it is also about our leaders and employees experiencing that it is easy to get competent help when they need it.

That is where you come into the picture, and if you have particular expertise within the payroll area, you’ll also have the opportunity to put it to use and take responsibility for more specialized tasks.

Welcome to your new team

You will be part of the HR Staff, where we are 14 colleagues who work with the whole HR spectrum: salary and personnel administration, HR development, occupational safety and personnel law.

We have high professional ambitions, but professionalism and job satisfaction are not opposites. On the contrary. Therefore you will have colleagues who are happy to share their knowledge, help each other and also have room for a good laugh during the workday.

You will be part of our payroll team, where you will have your own areas of responsibility and a team backing you up. We are constantly focused on developing, and you will have a real opportunity to influence how we distribute and solve tasks going forward.

What you will be working on

Your daily life will be varied, but your professional focus will be payroll and personnel administration.

You will among other things

  • handle payroll tasks and workflows in connection with hires and changes
  • draft employment contracts, change letters, etc.
  • Implement new laws and agreements
  • follow up on reimbursements in connection with illness and maternity/paternity leave
  • advise on salary placement and contact with the trade unions
  • advise and assist managers and employees with salary and personnel matters, collective agreements and working-time agreements
  • give new managers a good introduction to the payroll and personnel area

And what else you can contribute….

In short, you are one of those who keep the HR engine running.

Who are we hoping you are?

You have an administrative education and experience with the payroll and personnel area.

If you have already worked in KMD OPUS, we will of course be happy, but if you haven’t, we will teach you. For us, your approach to the task is at least as important as the systems you have previously worked with.

We especially hope that you

  • enjoy numbers, details and deadlines. If you have experience with or flair for extracting data from payroll systems, that is a big plus
  • work in a structured way and have a quality mindset
  • are a strong IT user
  • can work independently, but also enjoy making your colleagues look good
  • can translate rules and collective agreements into understandable guidance
  • are keen to learn new things and contribute to the development of our team.

And you should very much be the type who speaks up when you spot a smarter way to do things.

About the work framework

We are based in our new town hall in Herlev City Centre with modern facilities and room for different ways of working.

You get flexible hours and the possibility of remote work. And if it suits you, you can arrange two weeks of work over nine days and thus take every other Friday off.

Would you like to be our new colleague?

If this sounds like something for you, we would love to hear from you. The position is full-time, and salary and terms of employment follow the applicable collective agreement and the principles of local pay formation.

Submit your application no later than Thursday, 22 October. Interviews are expected to be held Monday, 26 October.

If you have questions about the job or are curious about who we are, you are very welcome to contact the professional leader Bettina Gad at 2448 7479 or [email protected] or HR Head of Staff Helle Kolberg at tel. 41218156 or [email protected] .
