HR partner with an eye for both people and the organization

Do you want to be close to leaders and the organization and translate HR expertise into solutions that work in practice? At Copenhagen Business Academy (EK) you get a broad HR partner role in Denmark's largest business academy. You will become part of a professional environment where we share knowledge, challenge each other constructively and collaborate to create an attractive and well-functioning workplace.

The job

As an HR partner you will be a close and trustworthy sparring partner for leaders. You help find the balance between operations, development, rules and good employee experiences. The role ranges from concrete personnel matters to the development of shared HR practices, and you work closely with colleagues across HR and the rest of EK.

Your primary tasks will be to

• advise and spar with leaders on people management, well-being, sick leave, work environment and organizational changes
• support recruitment from needs clarification and job profile to interviews, selection and a good onboarding
• contribute to a factual, consistent and respectful handling of personnel cases in collaboration with relevant HR colleagues
• translate collective agreements, rules, policies and HR data into clear and usable guidance
• facilitate meetings and processes that strengthen leadership, collaboration and organizational development
• participate in cross-cutting HR projects and help develop tools, workflows and common standards.

Your team and your workplace

EK HR consists of a total of 18 employees and supports the organization with among other things recruitment, personnel law, payroll administration, occupational health and safety, personnel policies, competence development and HR data. You will become part of a large educational organization with many skilled and experienced colleagues. Knowledge sharing and collaboration are important parts of our culture, and we place emphasis on high professionalism, helpfulness and an open, informal tone.

You will have the opportunity to shape task solving and develop your professional skills in interaction with HR colleagues, leaders and employees across EK.

Your background and competencies

We imagine that you have a relevant higher education and experience from a broad HR role, preferably as HR partner or HR consultant. The crucial thing is that you can build trust, understand the leadership's needs and translate your HR expertise into clear and actionable solutions.

We particularly emphasize that you

• have experience with management advisory, recruitment and handling of sick leave, well-being or working environment
• have solid knowledge of personnel law and collective bargaining; experience from a public or educational organization is an advantage
• communicate clearly and respectfully, even when the situation is complex or sensitive
• work in a structured way and follow up so that leaders, employees and partners experience progress
• can identify patterns across individual cases and contribute to improving common processes and practices
• have judgement, integrity and an eye for confidentiality, fairness and equal treatment.

You do not need to know everything beforehand. We are interested in both your experience, your professional curiosity and your ability to collaborate.
