The position

We are seeking a service oriented colleague to join our HR Services department in the role of HR Services Specialist. You will support our employees, business and HR colleagues. Interested? Read on!

In the role of HR Services Specialist, you will be the support and anchor for our employees, business, and HR colleagues. Thanks to you, HR processes will run simply, quickly, and reliably. In your daily work, you will be in contact with many different colleagues. You will take care of all (administrative) activities in the field of inflow, outflow, and transfer, such as drafting employment contracts, job changes, the preparation of reports, and exit mutations. You are the driving force behind our HR department, supporting the entire employee life cycle from recruitment, hiring, benefits administration through to promotions, transfers, and termination.

Your responsibilities

The duties include helping employees and managers with HR lifecycle-related questions, ensuring personnel-related documents are accurate and complete, processing data in various HRIS systems, maintaining files and records of a confidential nature, and preparing periodic standardized reports. Additionally, you are responsible for:

  • Contributing to the optimization and digitalization of our administrative processes and other projects within the HR team.
  • Functioning as a source of information for employees and managers regarding HR issues. If an HR question cannot be answered by you, you know exactly who to contact.
  • Ensuring a warm welcome for new employees.
  • Case management together with the HR Advisor for long-term sick leave.


Your workplace

HR Services is responsible for setting a new standard for the quality of our supportive work. Together with the team, you will focus on further professionalizing and automating our workflow to provide the best support for our organization. Every day is different, and that's exactly what keeps you motivated!

In this versatile role, you are independent and have no trouble maintaining focus in a hectic environment. Administration has no secrets for you, and you know better than anyone how to handle all HR tasks smoothly and competently.

Job requirements

  • Completed MBO 4 degree, preferably related to HR.
  • At least 5 years of experience in a similar position.
  • Proficiency in written and spoken Dutch and English.
  • You have a critical substantive view combined with a good dose of problem-solving ability.
