About the job

Do you have experience with payroll and personnel administration in the public sector – and would you like to become an active participant in a professional HR department where you influence workflows?

Do you also thrive in an informal work environment with high professional standards, humor and engagement? Then you may be the person we are looking for as our new colleague in HR.

About the position

As an HR employee you will be part of a well-functioning and dedicated HR team that supports The Royal Library's managers and staff with professional payroll and personnel administration. You will take responsibility for a number of departments and become an important administrative sparring partner in daily life.

Your tasks

You will play a central role in daily HR administration and will, among other things, work with:

  • Creation, changes and termination of employees in various systems
  • Maternity/paternity and sick leave administration
  • Reporting in State HR and HR-Pay
  • Filing and work in ESDH systems
  • Advice and sparring with employees and managers on salary, pension, holidays, maternity/paternity, time registration m.m.
  • Participation in the HR team's work on process optimization and development of workflows

About you

We imagine that you

  • Have an office education and/or relevant experience with payroll and personnel administration in public administration
  • Have knowledge of State HR and HR-Pay – and preferably ESDH systems such as Public 360
  • Have solid knowledge of public collective agreements and relevant legislation
  • Are an experienced user of the Office package, particularly Word and Excel
  • Are technically well-founded and quick to learn new systems

As a person you are structured, responsible and work independently, while also thriving as part of a team. You can prioritize among many diverse tasks and thrive with both routine and complex assignments.

In addition we place emphasis on you

  • Are approachable and clear in your communication
  • Have a service-oriented approach
  • Have humor and ease in building relationships

We offer

  • A professionally strong and engaged HR team with an informal work environment
  • Great influence on your own tasks and the opportunity to contribute to the development of HR processes
  • Flexible working hours and the possibility of remote work
  • An workplace with high societal significance
  • An HR community that works closely together across the country

Salary and employment terms

You will be employed under the joint agreement between the Ministry of Finance and Public Employees Organization – The State Area (OAO-S joint agreement) as well as the organizational agreement for office functions, laboratory technicians and IT employees (HK).

It is a condition of the position that you can be security cleared to a classified level.

We value balance between work and leisure, and you have the opportunity for flexible working hours. It is possible to work from home up to 2 days per week. The appointment is, as a rule, for 37 hours per week including a lunch break.

The place of employment is at The Royal Library, Victor Albecks Vej 1, 8000 Aarhus.
