De functie

As HR Manager you will play a key role in supporting around 300 employees at Europlant in Mijdrecht, with full HR responsibility for the site. You will lead a team of two HR Business Partners and work closely with colleagues in Recruitment and Payroll. Your leadership will help shape the local HR roadmap while remaining aligned with SC Johnson's global HR strategy. 

One of your key challenges will be to attract and retain skilled technical and production staff, such as operators. In addition, you will be focused on developing and upskilling your current workforce and managing the expected outflow due to upcoming retirements. These dynamics require a forward-looking HR approach, strong workforce planning, and compelling employer branding. 

You understand how to balance local ownership with adherence to global standards and policies, including working with the central Talent Acquisition team. You will bring your own HR vision but know how to operate within a broader international framework. 

You will be a key sparring partner to the Site Director and a valued member of the management team, contributing to organisational change, leadership development, and cultural initiatives that promote inclusion and engagement. You will also play a leading role in change management efforts that enable the organisation to grow and adapt effectively.
