Job Description:

We're looking for a new People&Culture Country Group Leader for our UK

Country Group:

you will be guiding the People & Culture function, working with a capable and experienced team across two plants and our UK HQ.

As a member of the UK leadership team you will provide strategic guidance on HR topics on our operations in the United Kingdom.


In this role you will report directly to the Country Group Managing Director and, functionally, to our P&C Vice President.

We expect you tick all the technical boxes of an experienced HR Director, and at the same time you will have experience working in a global business:

you will work closely with the other nine Country Groups across the globe and be involved in several regional and global initiatives.

The major responsibilities in this role will be related to:

  • articulating the UK P&C strategy, defining short/medium term priorities to translate the P&C vision on all P&C practices in the country
- providing oversight to support the achievement of business objectives through the people
- supporting and providing guidance to the Country Group on all topics related to union relations
- coaching team leaders on effective change management, including organizational design and change, transformation, cultural evolution


Qualifications:

In order to be successful in this role you need:

  • solid experience in HR management at national level (+3 years)
- a previous experience in a manufacturing or industrial company
- strong union relationship experience
- strong talent management and coaching skills

Additional Information

Our new teammate will be based in our UK HQ in Alloa, a few kilometres northwest of Edinburgh.

While in our company it's possible to work remotely, we feel that in order to be successful in this role you will have also to work regularly in the HQ and occasionally visit our two UK plants in Alloa and Harlow - consequently, you should consider this to be an hybrid role.

If you are smart, passionate, innovative, culturally open, curious and collaborative, we'd like to hear from you.

O-I is committed to fostering an inclusive environment that attracts and embraces the brightest minds and creates a culture that welcomes a diversity of ideas and perspectives while encouraging growth and rewarding performance.
