Operationally strong HR supporters with an eye for structure, quality and efficient workflows

Are you good at creating an overview, keeping track of many tasks and ensuring that things are followed through to the end? Do you have experience with HR administration, and are you motivated by making daily operations function efficiently and professionally? Then you might be our new colleague in HR at the Environmental Protection Agency.

We are seeking 1-2 engaged and structured employees for our HR support, who want to take responsibility for daily task execution and contribute to developing our administrative HR processes.

The Environmental Protection Agency is undergoing significant organizational changes, and we have high ambitions for the development of HR. We are working to create an even more efficient, digital and data-driven HR function that supports the agency's leaders and organization.

An important part of this development is a strong HR support that ensures quality, progress and coherence in our administrative processes and frees up time for HR business partners to focus on advisory and management support.

You will have a central role in daily HR operations and become part of a team where we help each other, take responsibility and continuously work to improve things.

You ensure progress in the daily HR operations

As an HR supporter you will have a wide range of administrative and coordinating tasks. You will become an important partner for our HR business partners and will independently be responsible for ensuring that tasks are planned, carried out and followed up.

Your main tasks will be to

• Support recruitment processes. You manage the administrative operation of recruitment processes, including creation and handling of job postings, coordination of interviews, candidate communication and follow-up in our recruitment system.
• Ensure overview and progress. You keep track of tasks, deadlines and deliverables, follow up on outstanding items and are proactive with activities in HR's annual cycle.
• Support HR business partners. You solve administrative and coordinating tasks so the partners have a solid basis for their advisory work to the agency's leaders.
• Handle other administrative HR tasks. You contribute to administration and coordination of common HR activities, for example health-promoting initiatives, and solve other administrative tasks across HR.
• Contribute to systematic operations management. You actively participate in the team's stand-up meetings and contribute to a shared task overview, prioritization, coordination and follow-up.
• Improve and digitalize workflows. You contribute to developing more efficient and consistent HR processes and to exploiting the opportunities in our digital HR systems.
• The tasks will evolve as we improve our processes and harness new digital possibilities. You should therefore be keen to both handle daily tasks and help develop the way we work.

You are structured, independent and take responsibility

We are looking for a colleague who thrives on administrative operations and is motivated to create order, ensure quality and get tasks fully completed.

You have a natural sense of structure and can maintain an overview even when many tasks must be solved simultaneously. You work independently, follow up without being asked and take responsibility for moving tasks forward.

We place particular emphasis on that you

• Have experience with HR administration, preferably within recruitment and supporting HR processes.
• Work systematically and structurally and have an eye for both details, deadlines and interconnections.
• Are proactive, take responsibility and also see where there is a need to follow up or help.
• Have good digital competencies and an interest in using systems and technology to simplify administrative workflows.
• Are collaborative and actively contribute to the team succeeding with its collective tasks.
• Communicate clearly and professionally and have a good understanding of service and quality in HR support.

It would be an advantage if you have experience from a government organization and knowledge of state HR systems, including the State Recruitment Solution.

It is also an advantage if you have experience with coordination and administrative execution of payroll rounds, maintenance of HR policies and guidelines, as well as preparation and quality assurance of HR data and management information.

You may have different educational backgrounds. Maybe you are a professional bachelor in public administration, a bachelor in business economics (HA) or have a master's degree such as cand.merc. in organization and HR, cand.soc. in Human Resource Management or cand.scient.adm. You may also have another relevant advanced education.

The most important is that you have experience with administrative task execution, work in a structured way, have good digital competencies and a strong motivation to work with HR operations.

You will become part of a developing HR partner team

HR is part of the Environmental Protection Agency's staff and supports the organization with HR advice, recruitment, personnel administration, work environment and organizational development.

You will become part of our HR partner team, which will eventually consist of four HR business partners and three HR coordinators. The team works closely together to ensure professional and coherent HR support.

You will report to our upcoming team leader for the HR partner team, who is responsible for daily leadership, task management and development of the team's processes.

We are in the process of developing our way of working. You will therefore have the opportunity to shape the workflows, contribute your ideas and help build a strong and well-functioning HR support.

You will become part of an organization with important societal tasks and an HR community where we have ambitions for high professionalism, efficient operations and good collaboration.
