This includes travel calendar management, instructions to local HR departments in other countries outside NL, calculation of holiday allowances and 13th month payments;
  • You will manage business demand, translate wishes into functional requirements and align the realization with internal or external suppliers
  • You will coordinate requests for work permits with external party
  • And of course, you will report on your activities and make sure that others gladly align with your timelines

What you will bring

Your unique potential and your values matter for us most. We look for people who are self-aware and who think in a holistic way, always conscious about their impact on society, environment, and the economy.

To be successful in this role, you will:

  • be able to influence and persuade local and groupwide stakeholders within HR and outside HR (management)
  • maintain integrity and honesty when handling personal data, given its sensitive nature
  • set focus and prioritize your work
  • have an analytical mind, are well organized and hands-on
  • connect closely with HR colleagues across the Triodos group in all 5 countries

Furthermore, it is expected that you:

  • have a proven track record in Dutch and (some) international payrolling
  • are able to drill down in financial load administration quickly and thoroughly
  • are a good communicator, including a proficient level in English in both speaking and writing
  • have an education in Loan administration (in Dutch PDL)
  • preferably bring previous experience as international payroll specialist, ideally within an international HR context

Your future colleagues

You will be reporting directly to Head of HR Service Delivery and cooperate closely with the payroll administrations in all countries. Also you will find close collaboration with EY as our external provider, and with our HR Data team for reporting.

The broader HR team across Triodos Group consists of 50 co-workers in total. For our reporting purposes you will deal with the personal and HR related data of our international working co-worker base existing of approximately 100 co-workers over five countries.
