Summary
In all human resources management roles, I reported directly to the CFO, the CEO, or the Corporate Executive Board and served as a business partner to the leadership team. I was responsible for the professional and disciplinary management of the human resources staff.
In addition to the classic, generalist tasks, I successfully used my experience and knowledge in communication psychology as a mediator, coach, and supervisor in all my HR management roles.
The range of HR topics and issues includes:
- Complete recruitment process: from posting job ads to preparing contracts
- Full spectrum of HR administration and support: from initial payroll preparation to creating legally sound contract templates
- Entire area of HR controlling: from preparing monthly reports to generating reports for pan-European corporate structures
- Initiation, design, and implementation of various talent development projects: from introducing an employee review system to rolling out a new compensation system.
