About MAG:
MAG (Mines Advisory Group) is an international humanitarian organisation based in Manchester, UK, and working in 32 countries. We remove landmines and unexploded ordnance to release safe and productive land for communities, and work to reduce the threat of armed violence by supporting governments to safely manage weapons and ammunition. In 1997, MAG was a co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize for our work campaigning for the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention.
About the role:
MAG anticipates opening a number of new work locations over the course of the next six months, and beyond. You will support People and Culture related organisational readiness for responding to new programme countries, with a primary focus on Occupied Palestinian Territories, Papua New Guinea, Ethiopia, Kenya and Tanzania, and others as necessary.
You will collaborate with MAG’s UK-based Programmes HR Managers to design pro-active recruitment and resourcing methods for both local and international roles and assemble guidance on local employment-related matters including contract modalities and employment law. You will lead on HR systems development (policies, toolkits, handbooks, benchmarking etc.) and broader organisational People and Culture related support to ensure our HR policies and systems are transparent, easily accessible, legally compliant, and adapted to context to appropriately support our staff. This work is key to helping ensure our strategic priority of a globally inclusive workforce, with the right skills, capacity, and culture to deliver the highest quality of programming with the most possible impact.
About you:
You will have experience in international HR operations, with a proven track record of supporting organisational readiness and workforce planning, ideally with experience of building and maintaining surge capacity. You will also have experience of researching, developing and implementing HR frameworks for new locations of work, including drafting staff handbooks and policies, establishing salary scales, and setting up basic HR systems and processes to enable employment of staff in new country locations.
You will demonstrate an understanding of employment law and compliancy issues as they relate to establishing new locations of work, as well as strong project management skills. You will be an effective communicator, able to develop excellent working relationships remotely, and have a highly pro-active and solution oriented approach
