  • Track record of successfully introducing new, harmonization policies into large businesses operating across many European countries.

  • Exceptional communication skills to engage with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Ability to draft, form and edit HR policy content and engage function experts for guidance.
  • Additional European languages are a plus.
