Aalborg Portland Nordic & Baltic is looking for an engaged and structured HR Operations Specialist with a strong passion for accurate master data, employment administration, payroll support, and HR reporting.

You will report to the HR Operations Manager and become a key contributor to the daily HR operations, ensuring that our employee data and HR processes are accurate, timely, and fully compliant.

As an HR Operations Specialist, your responsibilities will include, among others:

• HR Master Data and Employee Administration: Responsibility for creating, maintaining, and quality-assuring employee data in HR systems throughout the entire employee lifecycle (hire, changes, and termination)
• HR Reporting and Data Quality: Preparing and maintaining HR reports and KPIs, and ensuring high data quality for use by management, HR, and other stakeholders, in close cooperation with our HR Controller.
• Payroll Support: Close collaboration with the payroll function and/or external payroll providers, including quality assurance of payroll data, submission of changes, and handling payroll-related inquiries from employees and managers.
• Daily Support and Ad Hoc Tasks: Responding to inquiries from employees, managers, and other stakeholders, as well as handling ad hoc tasks within HR Operations. Occasionally, you will be supporting in drafting, updating, and administering employment documents - always with a strong focus on accuracy, compliance with legislation, and internal policies.

Your Profile
We imagine that you hold a BSc or MSc degree in HR, Business Administration, or a related field.

In addition, the ideal candidate has 2–3 years of experience within HR Operations and HR administration, preferably gained in a larger or international organization. You bring solid hands-on experience with HR master data, employment contracts, and payroll-related processes, and you are comfortable working with HR, payroll, and time management systems, including HR reporting.

A solid understanding of employment law, collective agreements, and GDPR is essential for the role. Furthermore, a basic financial understanding - including debit and credit principles, particularly in relation to payroll postings and reconciliations - is considered relevant and will support success in the position.

As a person, you are service-minded, responsible, and proactive. You thrive in an operational role where accuracy, confidentiality, and overview are critical, and where you independently drive your tasks to completion.

How to Apply
If the above sounds like something for you, please send your application as soon as possible. Applications can be submitted in either English or Danish. We conduct interviews on an ongoing basis and note that recruitment will close once the right candidate for the position is found.
