Join our journey of being a much loved, social & inclusive brand and contribute to our success by performing these tasks:

Ensure that the daily HR operations are running smoothly. This entails that you work closely with your team to overlook workload, but also be able to step into the operations yourself – if the workload or complexity requires –
Working closely with HR Advisors, the Director of Retail and Regional Managers to find more efficient ways of working in an increasingly complex market. This is vital for a future expansion.
Working with the HR Advisors to make sure our vacancies are filled on time by candidates that have great experience and are perfect for our brand – to start your unique onboarding & training journey as we truly 'Hire for attitude & train for skills'
Being the expert in local labour market and legal/remuneration issues for your countries. Acting to interpret, advise and integrate these into our practices.
Analyzing & interpreting people relevant KPIs – in order to create a great place to work whilst being focused on delivering World Class Service to our customers, as this will benefit the business results naturally.
We truly believe all our employees deserve to enjoy our global people initiatives. Within the HR programs & systems landscape, several (global) systems & standards have been implemented over the past 4 years (Workday, HKM Online Academy etc). Your main challenge would be to further work on a smooth transition between old and new, whilst working together with our international peer to innovate.
Creating a culture that shies away from ‘traditional HR practices' and is focused on improving customer service, building our brand as an employer and developing our network of truly inclusive brand ambassadors.
Working closely with your direct manager, our Director of HR, Scandinavia, Spain, Benelux & France (who's based in our int. HQ in Amsterdam); as well as our international HR team, on a variety of local and international projects whilst remaining focused on our commitment to being a truly social business.
