Welcome to the small, strength-based municipality with great opportunities!

Here you have the chance to contribute with socially important services, for those we are here for, together with your colleagues. We start from well-being factors and have a strength-based approach that focuses on the strengths of individuals and the organization. This is also what we communicate and give feedback on. You are given sustainable working conditions, prerequisites to grow and contribute to collegial learning. We are guided by development potential, pride, and humanity, and we expect you to do the same.

About the Operations

Hylte Municipality is an organization where proximity, commitment, and collaboration permeate the work. The municipality consists of five departments, where the Executive Department (KLF) functions as a central support and staff function. Within KLF is the Personnel Department, which is a well-functioning and cohesive operation with nine employees working with HR, payroll, business development, as well as system administration within HR and digitalization.

Over the past few years, the department has undergone a development journey and is today characterized by structure, high competence, and close collaboration. Our work has been recognized nationally, including for our modern and accurate competency-based recruitment as well as our focus on well-being, efficiency, and leveraging employee potential through active work with well-being factors.

Now we are looking for an HR Strategist who wants to help build on a stable foundation while contributing to the next step in our development. With us, you meet a workplace where trust, participation, and development are in focus. We are looking for you who have a strength-based approach, see opportunities in both people and operations, and want to contribute to long-term sustainable results through clarity, collaboration, and responsibility.

Job Responsibilities

As an HR Strategist or Acting HR Strategist in Hylte Municipality, you work close to the operations with a supportive, coordinating, and in some parts leading assignment. You are part of a team of HR Strategists where you work closely together and support each other in the assignment, while each HR Strategist has a specific responsibility to provide qualified HR support to one or several departments. In this role, you function as a sounding board for managers and contribute to developing the operations from an HR perspective.

You work broadly with issues within labor law, working environment, leadership, and Hylte's personnel policy. The role also involves ongoing collaboration with the municipality's trade union organizations and participation in collaboration forums, including the central collaboration group.

For the Acting HR Strategist position, there is also a special focus on competence supply issues and recruitment administration where you contribute to ensuring efficient and high-quality recruitment processes and support the operations in their competence needs.

We are a flexible work group that adapts our work based on current needs and prerequisites, which means that tasks and areas of responsibility may vary and develop over time. Common to the roles is active participation in the development of our ways of working and processes where we have a clear focus on digitalization, AI, and a data-driven and strength-based approach. As part of the Executive Department, you work with a clear assignment to contribute to the development and goal achievement of the operations.

As a person, you are responsible, work independently, and drive your issues forward, while being a team player who contributes to the whole.
