Human Resources Business Partner

Looking for an HR role where you can genuinely influence the business?

Making sure you fit the guidelines as an applicant for this role is essential, please read the below carefully.

MpowerT is partnering with a rapidly growing international food manufacturing group in the Limburg region.

Operating at scale, yet maintaining a strong entrepreneurial mindset, the company is investing heavily in growth, operational excellence and the further professionalisation of its people organisation. HR is expected to play a key role in that journey.

For one of its production sites, we are looking for an HR Business Partner who enjoys being close to the operation while contributing to broader organisational and people initiatives.

This opportunity could be particularly interesting for someone who already has experience in an industrial environment and is looking for a role that combines hands-on business partnering, people leadership support and organisational development.

The Opportunity

As HR Business Partner, you'll become part of a matrix HR organisation.

Locally, you'll work closely with the Plant MT and support the production site. At the same time, you'll be part of the wider Belgian HR organisation, reporting into the HR Director Belgium and collaborating closely with HR colleagues across multiple sites on harmonisation, projects and best practices.

The organisation has spent the past years investing in HR systems, data capabilities and a more integrated HR operating model. The next phase is about creating impact through people, leadership and execution.

This creates an exciting opportunity for an HR professional who enjoys combining strategy with action.

Your Focus

In this role, you will:

• Partner with managers and supervisors on a broad range of people-related topics
• Help strengthen leadership capabilities and empower managers in their role as people leaders
• Translate HR insights and people data into concrete actions and business improvements
• Contribute to the further professionalisation and harmonisation of HR processes across multiple sites
• Support organisational change and transformation initiatives within a manufacturing environment
• Foster constructive employee relations and contribute to a stable social climate
• Drive HR initiatives related to performance management, talent development and employee engagement
• Participate in national HR projects and help translate local needs into broader HR solutions

The impact you'll make will not be measured by the number of HR processes you manage, but by the value you create for leaders, employees and the business.

Who Are We Looking For?

We're looking for someone who understands both the people side and the business side of HR.

Ideally, you bring:

• Experience as an HR Business Partner, HR Manager or Senior HR Generalist
• Experience within a manufacturing, industrial or operational environment
• Solid expertise across Talent Management, Performance Management, Recruitment and Employee Relations
• Experience working with social partners and labour relations
• Strong business acumen and the ability to work with data, KPIs and business cases
• The credibility to challenge, influence and support leaders at different levels
• A proactive mindset and the ability to anticipate future organisational needs
• The ambition to continue growing professionally and take on broader responsibilities over time
• Excellent communication skills in both Dutch and English

Why Consider This Role?

Because this is more than a traditional HRBP position.

You'll join a company that is evolving rapidly through growth, acquisitions and continuous improvement.

You'll work in an environment where pragmatism, entrepreneurship and ownership are valued, where HR has a seat at the table, and where you'll be encouraged to contribute ideas, challenge the status quo and help shape the future.

For someone who enjoys building, influencing and creating sustainable impact, this role offers plenty of room to leave a mark.
