• 0–2 years of experience in HR Administration or Personnel Administration
• A degree in Human Resources, Labor Consulting, Law, or a related field is required
• Good ability to read and interpret payslips
• Knowledge of the main contract types and their associated deadlines
• Familiarity with administrative procedures related to sick leave, workplace injuries, maternity leave, and other absences

• Handle sensitive employee situations with care — support cases involving sick leave, workplace injuries, maternity leave, and other absences, always with discretion
• Be the quality-control layer — review and verify administrative documentation so nothing slips through with errors or gaps
• Understand payroll, not just process it — you're expected to read and interpret payslips prepared by the payroll consultant, and to catch and resolve discrepancies yourself before escalating
• Be the go-to liaison — act as the main point of contact with the payroll consultant and external bodies, representing the company professionally on compliance matters
• Apply labor law knowledge in practice — support correct application of relevant regulations and collective bargaining agreements (CCNL) in day-to-day decisions
