You will add value to the business by providing expert, proactive, and commercial HR advice, solutions, and support to achieve our strategy.

You will ensure legal compliance and support the effective implementation of HR programs in Sweden, while managing activities that require a local presence or in‑depth country knowledge.

You will be a core part of our HR team of six professionals, supporting around 500 employees across four markets and helping to implement our people agenda across the business. You will report directly to the HR Director Nordics, based in Finland.

• Process Improvement: Together with the Cluster HR Team, define, implement, and continuously improve HR processes, practices, and tools, considering global, regional, cluster and local standards.
• Culture Advocacy: Be an advocate for our Miele Creators Culture and act as a strong change agent, driving development and best practices.

Qualifications

What We’re Looking For

You are an exceptional communicator with the ability to build strong, trusted relationships at all levels. You bring prior HR experience, a solid understanding of employment law in Sweden, and a genuine interest in balancing strategic partnership with hands-on, operative HR work.

You’ll also bring:

• University degree in HR, Business, or equivalent, and prior HR expertise.
• Strong knowledge of Swedish labor laws and proven experience working and collaborating with social partners (unions).
• A proactive, solution-oriented, and hands-on mentality with a thrive for operational excellence.
