·The company's educational initiatives

·Work environment area

·Supporting the business's strategic development through HR efforts

You will be responsible for your own department but will work closely with both HR Operations and HR Business Partnering to ensure that our HR efforts create real value throughout the organization.

Who are you?

We envision that you:

·Have solid experience in HR development and organizational development
