<h2>About this position</h2><p>
        This role is situated at EMBL Heidelberg and manages a team of three HR  Partners and is responsible for delivering a high quality service to the  groups, teams, units and managers across EMBL’s five sites Barcelona,  Grenoble, Hamburg, Heidelberg and Rome, supporting them with excellent  HR advice and effective processes. The role reports to the Head of Human  Resources and is part of the EMBL HR teams at EMBL Heidelberg,  specifically working alongside the Recruitment, Contract, Training and  Development and Operation Teams.<br />
          <br />
          In this role, you will be  responsible for managing HR partners whose roles are to support  managers, supervisors and staff, dealing with HR issues as they arise  and optimizing processes around each stage of the employee life-cycle. A  cross-institute perspective is important to the role. You will be  expected to contribute to EMBL-wide initiatives and lead HR-focused  strategic projects which aim to continuously improve operations at EMBL.
        
        </p>

<h2>Your role</h2><p>
        
Drawing on experience and professional best practice, this role is responsible for leading and developing the HR Partner team members as they work with staff at all levels, guiding them to find solutions and deliver operational excellence. Due to its status as an Intergovernmental Organisation, EMBL runs its own health insurance and social security schemes in the framework of its Staff Rules & Regulations, and is outside the remit of national taxation and employment legislation. Human Resources is part of the COO unit and operates in a matrix management structure. Hence the role is very varied and calls for a structured approach to operational matters and problem solving, and an ability to work to tight deadlines while remaining flexibile to handle changing priorities across many teams with different perspectives. Excellent teamwork is essential as there are strong interdependencies between HR team members to provide a high quality service to the staff. Good interpersonal and communication skills are also required to support effective collaboration with the wider HR team sited at the EMBL headquarters in Heidelberg and at EMBL-EBI in the UK. The role requires a limited amount of travel within Europe, to meet with stakeholders at EMBL sites.<br /><br />
