Then it might be you we are looking for. We are seeking a skilled, outgoing, and helpful colleague who enjoys a varied and dynamic workday with a wide range of tasks in an informal environment.

We support 13 departments with around 2,000 employees attached and work closely with management on both daily operations, development, and handling of personnel and HR-related issues.

Responsibilities

Your tasks are diverse, and you will have your own areas of responsibility, but you will also participate in the joint solution of tasks. Your primary tasks will be:

• Advice and support to managers on HR-related questions, including personnel-law issues

In general you should be efficient and professionally grounded within the HR area, including experience with and knowledge of collective agreements and negotiations.

In addition we emphasize that you

• Have strong analytical skills and experience with IT
• Communicate clearly and professionally – both in sensitive conversations and in collaboration with colleagues and stakeholders at all levels
• Have good business understanding and experience working in a politically governed organisation
• Work independently and in a structured manner
• Can balance a service-minded approach with the ability to prioritise and trim down
• Contribute actively to the community and have a positive attitude toward both tasks and colleagues
• Help when it’s busy and be ready to go the extra mile to achieve a good result.

The position entails a broad portfolio of tasks and periods of high activity, so it is important that you can maintain overview, work structurally, and make the necessary priorities. At the same time you thrive in navigating within the framework set by legislation, collective agreements, regional policies and local guidelines for HR advisory services.

We offer

• An exciting and challenging job with a high degree of independence and responsibility
• A job in an organization that makes a difference every day
• A workplace where trust and free space under responsibility are keywords
• A good working environment with engaged and experienced colleagues who look forward to welcoming you
