Head of HR and Facilities

Your leadership brings people together and ensures our organization remains future-ready.

This will be your job

As Head of HR and Facilities, you will play a key role in the continued development of Victim Support Netherlands. You will bridge the gap between strategy, people, processes, and systems. You will ensure that the organization can adapt in a timely manner to internal goals, societal developments, technological innovations, and changing laws and regulations. In doing so, you will create the conditions that enable employees to perform at their best and continue to grow.

You will translate the organizational strategy into a vision for various HR topics, such as leadership, sustainable employability, and good employment practices. In doing so, you will ensure that this vision is carefully translated into processes, systems, and working methods, with a view to streamlining support for service delivery and ensuring ongoing compliance with laws and regulations.

For you, being a good employer also means creating a modern, safe, and attractive work environment. You ensure that employees have all the resources they need, both at the various locations and when working from home. Topics such as hybrid work, digitalization, sustainability, and future-oriented workspaces play a key role in this.

Thanks to your dedication, Victim Support Netherlands remains an attractive employer and an organization that can provide high-quality support to victims both today and in the future.
