Learning & Development Advisor Healthcare & Welfare

How do we ensure that our employees continue to develop and are well-equipped for the care and support of today and tomorrow? At Stichting Humanitas, we believe that learning does not only take place during a course or training, but precisely also on the work floor. As a Learning & Development Advisor, you will play an important role in this.

We are looking for two new advisors who, together with their colleagues, will further strengthen learning and development within Humanitas. You will map out development needs, advise managers, and translate issues into suitable learning paths and solutions. In doing so, you look beyond just developing a training session. You ensure that learning connects to daily practice, contributes to professionalism, and helps employees to continue developing.

Within Learning & Development, we work with three areas of focus: vocational training, workplace learning, and learning pathways. We already have a colleague for vocational training. With the arrival of two new advisors, we primarily want to further develop and strengthen workplace learning and learning pathways.

What do these areas of focus entail?

You focus on strengthening learning in daily practice. You develop and implement ways in which employees and teams can learn from each other and from daily situations. Think of reflection, feedback, and learning from case studies. You support managers in stimulating a strong learning culture and connect workplace learning to organizational changes and the development of professionalism.

You focus on developing coherent learning paths for our employees. From onboarding to organization-wide development programs. You ensure that learning objectives, content, and learning methods align well and, where appropriate, combine digital learning with learning on the work floor. Together with subject matter experts and colleagues, you develop learning pathways that are not only substantively strong but also work well in practice.

During the interviews, we will look together at where your knowledge, experience, and qualities align best.

• You analyze learning and development needs and advise managers and management on suitable solutions, plans, and improvement proposals.

• You develop, coordinate, and implement learning paths and learning interventions and ensure that these align well with daily practice.

• You initiate and lead projects within your area of focus and monitor progress, quality, and results.

• You work together with managers, HR colleagues, educational institutions, and employees involved in practical and workplace learning.

• You evaluate learning activities, translate results into improvements, and ensure that successful working methods and learning solutions are secured.

You will become part of the Learning & Development discipline within People & Organization (P&O) at Stichting Humanitas. Together with your colleagues, you will work on further developing and strengthening learning within our organization.

You work closely with the Strategic Learning & Development Advisor, who monitors the strategic course and coherence of the L&D portfolio. You are responsible for the substantive development, execution, and results within your area of focus. Additionally, you work together with HR Business Partners, HR advisors, managers, colleagues involved in practical and workplace learning, and external knowledge partners.

Humanitas is constantly evolving. Changes in healthcare, the labor market, and the needs of our employees call for new ways of learning and developing. This offers plenty of room to contribute ideas, implement improvements, and, together with colleagues, continue building a strong learning environment.

You are a strong conversational partner who can listen well, ask probing questions, and advise. You understand what is happening within an organization and know how to bring different interests together. You think in terms of possibilities, but you are also practically minded. Because a good plan is only valuable if it works in practice.

In addition, you bring:

• HBO working and thinking level and extensive experience within learning and development, preferably within a complex organization.

• Knowledge of didactics, learning processes, and the development and implementation of learning paths.

• Experience in advising managers and independently guiding or leading projects.

• Knowledge of or experience with workplace learning, the development of learning pathways, organizational development, and digital learning environments.

• Good communication skills, persuasiveness, and the ability to take people along in changes.

You work independently, maintain an overview, and know how to set priorities. In doing so, you actively seek collaboration and dare to look critically at existing working methods when you see opportunities to do things better.

At Stichting Humanitas, we believe it is important that you can do your work with pleasure and confidence. Therefore, you can count on good employment conditions and the space to continue developing yourself:

• A versatile advisory role in which you work independently and are given space to help build the further development of Learning & Development.

• A one-year contract for 32-36 hours with a view to a permanent contract if both parties are satisfied;

• A salary according to FWG 55 of the VVT collective labor agreement (€3,772.15 - €5,413.38 based on 36 hours) depending on your knowledge and experience.

• An end-of-year bonus of 8.33% and 8% holiday allowance.

• Opportunities to continue developing yourself.

• An engaged working environment in which collaboration and attention for one another are central.
