  • Personally manage complex client accounts, providing senior advisory support on employment law, compensation and benefits, immigration, and HR policy.
  • Guide clients through high-impact situations, including restructures, M&A activity, terminations, and cross-border employee mobility.
  • Oversee the preparation and quality of key client deliverables, such as employment contracts, handbooks, policies, and legislation summaries.
  • Work closely with payroll operations and external partners to ensure aligned and seamless client delivery.
  • Support account growth through opportunity identification, proposals, and client pitches.
  • Stay up to date with international employment law changes, sharing knowledge across the team.
  • Act as a senior point of escalation for complex client queries and complaints.
  • Contribute to financial audits by providing records and documentation when required.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience in international HR consulting or an HR advisory role, with strong knowledge of employment law and HR practices.
  • A demonstrated track record of leading teams, with clear examples of coaching, development, and results.
  • Hands-on experience advising clients on employment contracts, compensation and benefits, HR policy, immigration, and restructuring.
  • Confidence managing complex client relationships where expectations, risk, and judgement are high.
  • Solid working knowledge of Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and PowerPoint.
  • Fluent English is essential, with additional European languages a strong advantage.

Why Join Us?

  • A senior role combining leadership and hands-on client impact.
  • Exposure to complex international HR challenges across multiple jurisdictions.
  • Real opportunity to shape standards and develop consulting talent.
  • A collaborative, high-performing environment that values expertise and accountability.
