We’re looking for a Sickness & Absence Operations Specialist for a client in the biopharmaceutical sector. You’ll manage the operational and administrative follow-up of long-term sickness cases in Belgium, working closely with HR, payroll, medical services and external providers.


Your responsibilities

  • Manage sickness files exceeding 30 days from an administrative perspective, keeping them complete, accurate and ready for review.
  • Track legal and process deadlines throughout sickness and reintegration cases, and flag missing documents or risks before deadlines are missed.
  • Update sickness and absence data across HR, time registration and payroll systems, ensuring the information is consistent.
  • Coordinate the payroll treatment of sickness and work accidents, including guaranteed salary, mutuality allowances, disability benefits and insurance-related payments.
  • Support work accident administration, from declarations through to follow-up with insurers and other external partners.
  • Serve as a reliable point of contact for employees and managers, including when they use digital self-service tools.
  • Prepare reporting and dashboards on case status, deadlines, trends and financial impact.
  • Help improve checklists, workflows and digital tools used for sickness and work accident management.


Your profile

  • 3–5 years of experience in HR operations, payroll administration or a similar role, ideally involving sickness, absence or work accident cases.
  • Strong knowledge of how sickness and work accidents are handled in Belgian payroll.
  • Experience with HR and payroll tools such as SuccessFactors, Neocase, myProtime, Oasys or eBlox, or comparable systems.
  • Strong Excel skills; Power BI or other dashboarding experience is an asset.
  • Accurate and organised, with the discretion and empathy needed to handle sensitive employee and medical information.
