What will you be doing?

You may work behind the scenes, but you play an important connecting role:

Contributing to strategic success: As an HR advisor, you play a crucial role in developing and implementing the goals and priorities outlined in the strategic HR plan. You will collaborate with colleagues on various HR topics and projects, and in some cases, you will serve as the project leader.

Professional consulting; As the link within the organization, you serve as a consultant and sounding board for managers and team leaders. You also act as a point of contact for employees, whether regarding collective bargaining agreements, personnel policies, or personal matters such as illness and leave.

Communication and Analysis: You play a key role in internal communication to build support for policies and regulations. By analyzing trends, developing key performance indicators, and providing management with strategic insights, you contribute to well-informed decision-making.

Ensuring efficient HR administration and processes; You are responsible for maintaining accurate personnel records for all employment relationships within the organization, including salaried employees, independent contractors, and volunteers. You are closely involved in the efficient execution of HR processes and procedures, playing an active role in improving and optimizing these processes. In addition, you are the one who implements the Occupational Health and Safety Act and the Gatekeeper Act in practice.

Collaboration: You will work closely with the HR team to coordinate policies and projects, and you will seek to collaborate with managers, team leaders, and employees whenever possible.

Who are we looking for?

A passionate HR professional: You’ve been working in an HR role for some time and may be ready for a new challenge (such as moving from HR associate to HR consultant, or expanding into a broader field) where you can further develop your skills. Do you already have extensive experience? Of course, you’re more than welcome to apply.

Personality and skills: You have a positive, open, and enthusiastic personality. You have strong advisory skills and a keen eye and ear for what’s going on within the organization. You interact easily with all kinds of people within the organization.

Hands-on approach: You have strong organizational skills, are proactive and decisive, and enjoy seeing things through to the end and achieving results. You also excel at thinking and acting in a process-oriented manner.

Resourceful and creative:You’re always looking for the best solution for everyone.

And ideally, if you live in the Amersfoort area and/or are familiar with AFAS, you’ll have an edge.
