FULL TIME

October 11, 2024

Today, Lonza is a global leader in life sciences operating across three continents. While we work in science, there’s no magic formula to how we do it. Our greatest scientific solution is talented people working together, devising ideas that help businesses to help people. In exchange, we let our people own their careers. Their ideas, big and small, genuinely improve the world. And that’s the kind of work we want to be part of.
The HR Business Partner (HRBP) will act as a strategic and operational advisor to the production site. This role requires deep understanding of Belgian social legislation and strong skills in social and employee relations, change management, and organizational development. The HRBP will work closely with the HR Head and ensure alignment with corporate policies, while adapting solutions to meet site-specific needs. The HRBP will monitor processes of HR shared service centers (payroll, HR services, recruitment) to ensure compliance and efficiency.

  • Compliance & Legal Framework: Ensure compliance with Belgian social legislation, corporate policies, and local employment law. Provide advice to managers and leadership on complex HR issues, such as performance management, disciplinary actions, and grievances. Monitor adherence to collective bargaining agreements, corporate policies, and relevant regulations.
  • Employee Engagement & Well-being: Drive initiatives aimed at improving employee engagement and well-being within the production site. Develop programs focused on workplace safety, mental health, and work-life balance. Act as an advocate for a positive employee experience, contributing to building a collaborative and inclusive work environment.
  • Workforce Planning & Monitoring HR Services: Monitor the execution of recruitment and payroll by the shared service center, ensuring that service level agreements are met and that any site-specific needs are addressed. Analyze workforce metrics and recommend proactive solutions for workforce efficiency and development.
  • Stakeholder Collaboration: Act as a trusted advisor to people managers, providing insights on HR matters and organizational development. Liaise with corporate HR teams to ensure alignment with global initiatives and report on site-specific HR trends and needs. Collaborate with other HRBPs across the organization to share best practices and implement site-level improvements.
  • Talent Development & Organizational Effectiveness: Partner with the HR Head and SLT to implement performance management, talent development, and succession planning initiatives. Support managers in fostering a high-performance culture by implementing employee engagement and retention strategies.
Key requirements:
  • Bachelor`s or equivalent work experience in Human Resources related discipline, Business Administration
  • Extensive experience and knowledge in Belgium labor law, market and dealing with works councils
  • Experience in payroll and with service centers
  • Fluent in Dutch and English
  • Working in a multinational, matrixed organization is a plus
Every day, Lonza’s products and services have a positive impact on millions of people. For us, this is not only a great privilege, but also a great responsibility. How we achieve our business results is just as important as the achievements themselves. At Lonza, we respect and protect our people and our environment. Any success we achieve is no success at all if not achieved ethically.

People come to Lonza for the challenge and creativity of solving complex problems and developing new ideas in life sciences. In return, we offer the satisfaction that comes with improving lives all around the world. The satisfaction that comes with making a meaningful difference.
