Security & Safety Jobs in Brussels, Belgium (Now Hiring) — 236 open — Page 4

Who are we?

It all starts with the mission: NVISO is here to protect European society from potentially devastating cyber attacks! This means we offer cyber security services to private and governmental organizations to help them better prepare for, prevent, detect and respond to cyber security incidents.

All of this is built on four fundamental values that define who we are: We are Proud, We Break Barriers, We Care and No BS!

How is HR organized at NVISO?

By design, HR is steered globally and executed locally. To stay close to our people and the specificities of each country in which we operate, we work in a governance model that combines a global Head of HR with local HR leads at entity level. The global Head of HR owns the overall people strategy, frameworks and standards, while local HR leads are accountable for delivering the HR agenda inside their entity, staying close to the people, and translating global policies into a locally relevant experience.

Together, they form one HR team, aligned on priorities, tools and ways of working, so that every colleague experiences a consistent NVISO, wherever they are based.

Next to this regional governance, our HR activities are also organized into service clusters. The same principle applies here: strategy, frameworks and standards are defined globally, while execution and impact happen locally, inside each entity. Each cluster is led by a service cluster lead from within the HR team, who is accountable for shaping the cluster’s agenda, setting the standards and driving continuous improvement across NVISO. To keep this close to the reality of our people, we make sure every entity is represented in each cluster, so that local needs, constraints and opportunities are reflected in the way we design and run our people programs.

Our HR activities are grouped into the following service clusters:

• Recruitment and employer branding


• Career, learning and development, and performance management


• Compensation and benefits & Payroll


• Wellbeing

In this model, the Head of HR relies on both the local HR leads and the service cluster leads to translate one global people agenda into a consistent, high-quality employee experience across every NVISO entity.

Tasks

We are looking for an experienced Head of HR to join our growing organization. In this role, you will lead the global people agenda at NVISO, and at the same time act as the local Head of HR for our Belgian entity (ad interim), in the same way our current local HR leads cover Greece and DACH

Your focus is clearly on the people side of HR: talent, culture, development, engagement and employee experience. Payroll, HR administration and compliance with local labor and social legislation sit with each local Head of HR for their entity, supported by external social secretariat and legal partners.

As a fast-growing cyber security company, our people are our most important asset. You will be the trusted advisor to our leadership team on everything related to talent, culture, organization and employee experience, and the visible face of HR both globally and for our Belgian colleagues.

We are therefore looking for an enthusiastic team player who will:

• Set the global frameworks, standards and ways of working in these domains, and make sure they are consistently applied across all entities.

• Drive our culture programs, keeping our four values alive in the daily experience of every colleague, across all entities.


• Champion diversity, equity and inclusion, and run our employee listening cycle (people pulse, feedback loops, exit insights), turning what we hear into concrete actions.


• Oversee office management and the workplace experience across our offices, together with our office management team and local Heads of HR.


• Own the global compensation and benefits framework (benchmarking, salary reviews, bonus and incentive plans, company reward strategy,...) together with the local Heads of HR. Local implementation, in line with country practices and legislation, is executed by the local Heads of HR, yet steered and aligned on company level.


• Own our approach to career, learning and development, and performance management as a service cluster lead, so that every NVISO colleague has a clear and compelling growth path in line with company evolution and needs. Evolve the current career, competence and skills framework to the fast-growing needs of the organization


• Own our wellbeing agenda, in cooperation with the wellbeing cluster lead, making sure it is felt in the daily life of every team.


• Set the global HR policies and the minimum standards colleagues can expect from NVISO as an employer, while relying on the local Heads of HR to ensure payroll, HR administration and compliance with local labor and social legislation in each of the countries in which NVISO is active.


• Manage and steer the company HR budget, in line with company forecasting and budgetary review cycles.


• Own the key global HR metrics and reporting; use data to inform decisions on retention, engagement, career evolution and organizational health.
