HR Advisor

What you will do

• The day-to-day implementation of HR policies & processes (performance management & talent enablement, rewards, onboarding new team members, …). 
• Questions related to individual team members (long term sickness, development, high potentials, underperformers,...). 

• You are the first point of contact for HR Employee Center regarding employee questions that require a specific intervention (eg Engineer Olivia wants to have a career conversation with her manager but seeks advice on how to formulate some sensitive messages in the best possible way). 
• Together with the HR Centers of Expertise you prepare the roll out of HR processes, making sure all needed information is timely available for managers, and occasionally link up to solve questions from people managers.
