Compensation & Benefits Specialist

SAP, HR Technology, some experience, internal role

Belgium

You are an experienced HR professional with a strong background in hard HR. Compensation & Benefits programs don’t hold many secrets for you.

You follow up on generic and specific reward questions and are up to speed on the changes in Belgian and European tax law & social regulations. You would enjoy being actively involved in taskforces on a variety of HR topics and, depending on your interests and growth path, play an important role in broader HR projects.

We are looking for a Compensation & Benefits Specialist who is genuinely passionate about developing expertise in tax and employee rewards. Could that be you?

Who are we?

We are the delaware HR team: a close-knit group of about 36 HR professionals. You can find us in the different delaware offices. With more than 1,600 colleagues in Belgium and Luxembourg alone, you can imagine that every one of them has different needs and expectations when it comes to HR. They come to us with a broad variety of questions on compensation, tax, benefits, and social security.

Our Compensation & Benefits team is primarily based in our Ghent and Kortrijk offices, making these our main hubs for expertise in this area. Add to this a dose of ever-changing employment legislation and the challenges that come with reward management, and you immediately get why we need a Compensation & Benefits Specialist with extensive knowledge on these topics and trends. Don’t worry, you won’t have to do this on your own – you can count on the support of experienced HR colleagues!
