You have a relevant academic degree in HR studies, Business, Psychology or equivalent, with a minimum of 3 years’ experience in working in a broad HR related work in a Nordic or multisite location environment. You have good understanding of the “HR-year” and related processes, as well as knowledge of the employment legislation in one- or several of the Nordic countries.

You need to be fluent in written and spoken English, Swedish and ideally also Finnish or Norwegian.
