Working with senior managers based overseas, you will be responsible for managing and delivering high-quality, effective operational HR services and advice across a variety of employment contexts and legal frameworks. Strong communication skills are essential for this role, as you will be supporting remote stakeholders. You will guide, coach, and support senior managers in programmes as a trusted adviser on complex employee relations, performance management issues, and change processes.

You should have demonstrable experience in managing and delivering HR services and supporting managers to resolve a wide range of complex employee relations issues within an international HR setting. Previous experience in a humanitarian organization is not necessary, but you will need to rely on your sound project management, people management, communication, and influencing skills, as well as knowledge of employment law and the ability to interpret and apply it. The successful candidate will have experience in line managing and supporting others, developing and implementing HR policies and procedures, and coaching or mentoring HR professionals to improve capability. This is a fast-paced role requiring high levels of initiative, proactiveness, and strong multi-tasking skills. You should also be a creative, flexible, solution-focused HR professional committed to MAG's goals.
