Sahlgrenska University Hospital is in a phase of development, with several change initiatives to reach the overarching goal of becoming Europe's leading university hospital by 2032, and HR plays a vital role in contributing to this transformation.

Job Description

The HR Department is a close and active partner to the hospital's operations in addressing the challenges healthcare faces. With high competence in the HR field and good knowledge of the operational prerequisites, we work together with the operations on both operational and strategic issues.

At the HR Department, we work in teams to develop and utilize our resources and competencies in the best possible way. Working in teams also offers the opportunity to deepen knowledge in specific areas, such as work environment, employer issues, executive recruitment, or competence supply.
