The role

Welcome to JYSK! 

JYSK is a fast-growing retail chain with more than 3,000 stores in 50 countries. To support this growth logistically, the 10th distribution center is being built in Lelystad. Construction is in full swing and the distribution center is expected to be operational in early 2027.

But of course, that doesn't mean we are sitting idle until then! Currently, we are working hard from our temporary distribution center to realize a smooth transition to the new location.

Something special is happening at JYSK. In Lelystad, we are building our newest distribution center, an important step in the further growth of our international organization. Behind a successful distribution center are not only smart processes and systems, but above all engaged and motivated employees. That is why we are looking for an HR Business Partner who gets energy from developing people, advising managers, and building a strong organizational culture. 

In this role, you are much more than an HR advisor. You are a visible and accessible sparring partner for managers, a coach for leaders, and a driving force behind talent development. You move easily between the shop floor and the management team and know exactly what is needed to let employees and teams grow successfully. 

Together with the managers, you ensure that the right people are in the right place, that talent is developed, and that employees go to work every day with pleasure and confidence. 

What you'll do

As an HR Business Partner, you contribute to the further development of our logistics organization. Your responsibilities include: 

  • Advising and supporting managers on HR issues, leadership, and performance management. 

  • Analyzing HR data and KPIs, such as absenteeism, turnover, and employee satisfaction, and translating these into concrete improvement actions. 

  • Organizing training, development programs, and initiatives for on-the-job learning. 

  • Supporting managers with challenging personnel issues, including absenteeism, development, and disciplinary processes. 

  • Strengthening our employer branding and employee engagement. 

  • Conducting and following up on employee satisfaction surveys. 

  • Monitoring HR processes, labor law guidelines, and company policy. 

  • Stimulating a safe, healthy, and positive working environment in which employees can excel. 

Why this position is special

This position offers you the chance to help build a new distribution center from the ground up. You will get plenty of room to make an impact, take ownership of processes, and establish a culture in which development, collaboration, and performance go hand in hand. 

You will work closely with the management team, operational departments, and HR colleagues within an international organization. This gives you direct influence on both the employee experience and the results of the distribution center. 

Who are you?

You are an HR professional who likes to take initiative and easily connects with people at all levels within the organization. You are analytically strong, but never lose sight of the human side. 

In addition, you bring:
