As our HR Intern, you work together with the People Experience team to deliver a proactive and customer-focused HR service for all employees. You get hands-on exposure to contract management, payroll, benefits, HR systems, and the full employee lifecycle, from onboarding to offboarding.

• Employee guidance & support – Act as a friendly first point of contact for day-to-day HR questions from employees, helping them navigate policies, procedures, and tools so they feel supported and informed.

Keep your knowledge of the systems up to date and suggest improvements that make processes more efficient and user-friendly.

• Projects, processes & policies – Provide support on HR and People Experience projects, such as implementing new systems, supporting trainings, rolling out HR communications, and helping design or update processes and policies. Take ownership of smaller tasks or sub-projects, contributing ideas on how we can continuously improve the way we work.

• Stakeholder collaboration – Work with internal stakeholders across all teams and external partners such as our pension advisor, payroll provider, Occupational Health & Safety company, government authorities, and other HR vendors (for training, relocation, wellness, etc.), helping to ensure smooth collaboration and timely follow-up.
