Work for us
Fixed term to 31 December 2022
Starting salary for this position is £37,452 per annum (plus contributory pension)
The successful candidate can choose to work from MAG’s Manchester office or to work from home within the UK, with occasional attendance in the office as required. For exceptional candidates with fluent French, MAG may consider a ‘remote’ contract, based from either the UK or France. We will also consider flexible working arrangements, including part time applicants.
We are seeking a credible and confident HR Manager to join our dynamic Human Resources team of 12, which provides support and advice to MAG’s employees working in over 28 countries across the world. This is an exciting and dynamic role, where you’ll act as a business partner, using your skills and experience to support our lifesaving work across the globe.
Working with senior managers based overseas, you will be responsible for managing and delivering high quality, effective operational HR services and professional advice across a variety of employment contexts and legal frameworks. Acting as a business partner, you’ll provide support to senior managers as a trusted adviser on complex people and performance management issues, change processes, compliance, liability and risk. You will manage a HR Officer, focussed on recruitment and selection and supporting you in generalist areas.
You will need to have a relevant HR qualification or equivalent, and experience in a generalist HR role, evidencing a wide range of HR skills. Previous experience of working in International HR is not necessary, but you will need to rely on your sound project and people management skills, as well as knowledge of employment law and ability to interpret and apply it. This is a fast-paced and challenging role, which will require high levels of initiative, pro-activeness and strong multi-tasking skills. You will need to be a clear and influential communicator, and fluency in French is highly desired in this role. You will also be a creative, flexible, solution-focused HR professional committed to MAG’s goals.
If interested, the successful candidate may also be offered the opportunity to travel, to conduct support visits to MAG’s programmes overseas. However, this is not compulsory.
