HR Consultant with personnel-legal experience – use your expertise and make a difference for our leaders

Do you want to use your personnel law experience to make a real difference in the daily lives of managers? And would you like to become part of an HR community where high professionalism, sparring, and good collegiality go hand in hand?

Then we may have the job for you in Faxe Municipality.

We are looking for an experienced HR consultant who wants to put their personnel law expertise into practice, advise and challenge our leaders, and help develop the HR support that makes the entire organization function well.

A job with professional challenges, influence and great colleagues

As an HR consultant you will have a diverse daily life, getting close to the organization's leaders and their many different personnel-law issues.

You will work with everything from concrete personnel cases and difficult management decisions to negotiations, contract interpretation and advice on personnel-law questions. You will have responsibility and the opportunity to shape how tasks are solved, and you will become an important professional sparring partner for our leaders.

You must be able to stand on your own two feet and use your professionalism confidently, but you do not have to stand alone. We believe that the best solutions are created when we use each other's knowledge, challenge each other professionally and help each other when cases are complex.

We expect you to have solid experience with personnel law and be able to work independently. You do not need to know it all from day one. The most important thing is that you have a strong professional foundation, a desire to learn, and the courage to take responsibility.

What you will be working with

Your task portfolio will be broad and varied. Among other things you will work with

• Advice and guidance to managers on personnel-law questions and cases
• Case handling in service-related matters, including warnings, dismissals and removals
• Interpretation of collective agreements and contracts
• Participation in negotiations with trade unions
• Preparation of cases for the management, Chief Forum and Main Committee
• Advice on and dissemination of agreements and guidelines, including MED organization and local agreements
• Development of HR-Law and cooperation with the organization’s leaders

Who are you

We are looking for a colleague with solid personnel-law experience who thrives on translating law and agreements into solutions that make sense in practice.

You have organizational understanding and can navigate in a daily life where professionalism, relationships and organizational considerations must go hand in hand. You preferably have experience from a politically led organization and understand the importance of supporting leaders in a complex organization.

You must have a relevant educational background. This could be a higher legal education, a clerical education supplemented with relevant continuing education and experience in personnel administration, or another educational background that has given you the necessary competencies. The most important is that you have solid personnel-law experience, can work independently, and have the organizational understanding that the tasks require.

We place particular emphasis on you

• Have solid experience with personnel-law tasks – preferably from a municipality or another public organization
• Have experience with management consulting and handling personnel-law issues
• Have knowledge of collective agreements and public sector accords
• Can communicate complicated issues clearly and understandably and find solutions that can work in practice
• Are good at collaboration and actively contribute to both the professional and collegial community
• Wish to develop professionally and help develop our HR support

It is an advantage if you have experience with the MED system and negotiating local agreements. This is not a requirement, though. On the other hand, you should be eager to learn more and develop your competencies in the area.

Who will your colleagues be

You will be part of the HR & Secretariat staff, where we are 35 colleagues with different professional backgrounds and tasks. We work, among other things, with HR, payroll, political servicing, executive support, legal advice, communication, crisis management, organizational development and cross-cutting development tasks.

What unites us is that we work to support the executive, the politicians and the rest of the organization so they have the best possible conditions to succeed in their tasks – and thereby make a difference for our citizens and local communities.

The staff is organized into four professional units: HR, Payroll, Secretariat and Law. We value our professional communities, but also place great importance on cross-department collaboration. We believe we achieve the best results when we bring our different competencies into play.

You will become part of the HR unit, where we work with both personnel-law and HR development. Here you will have a team leader close to daily task solving and colleagues who are happy to share their knowledge and provide professional feedback.

We have high ambitions for the quality of our work, but we also aim to be an attractive workplace where it is nice to go to work. We have had high job satisfaction for several years, and we work hard to maintain that.

With us there is room to breathe, an informal tone, and space for humor. We have busy periods, and everyday life may include cases that require both quick action and thorough consideration. Therefore it is important to us that we help each other, are flexible and find solutions together.

What you get with us

You get

• An exciting and versatile job with broad professional breadth
• Opportunity to use and develop your personnel-law expertise
• Independent responsibility and close sparring with skilled colleagues and a team leader
• An important role in supporting the municipality’s leaders
• Good opportunities for competence development
• A strong collegial community with high well-being, flexibility and room for humor
• Flexible scheduling with the possibility of home working up to two days per week by agreement
