Flemish BrabantHybrid38 hours/week<3months

For a large Belgian retailer, we are looking for a freelance specialist within the Total Reward team.

  • The priority is to weigh a large volume of job descriptions at a tight pace.
  • You will collaborate with a colleague responsible for job classification.

What you do

  • You analyze job descriptions and weigh functions according to the Korn Ferry Hay methodology.
  • You work in tandem with a colleague and discuss weighings using the four-eyes principle.
  • You subtly substantiate why a function reaches a certain level and clearly explain small differences.
  • You help to complete current and subsequent weighing rounds on time.
  • You contribute ideas for improvements in the job classification process.

Possible second assignment: Equal Pay.

What they ask

  • Direct, in-depth experience with job weighing according to Korn Ferry Hay is crucial.
  • You can weigh independently and act as a content sparring partner.
  • You have previously weighed functions yourself with the Korn Ferry Hay methodology and can substantively defend your assessments.
  • You can critically read job descriptions and carefully translate differences in responsibilities, impact, and complexity into a weighing.
  • You work accurately and quickly enough to support multiple weighing rounds within short deadlines.
  • You can constructively consult with a colleague and arrive at a well-substantiated joint judgment.
  • For the possible Equal Pay component, structured project work, follow-up, and reporting are important.
  • Experience in a large retail or logistics organization is relevant due to the context, but immediate mastery of Korn Ferry Hay is paramount.

  • Dutch is generally the working language within HR.
  • Your direct colleague for the weighings is French-speaking and also speaks good English.
  • Communication with the international group usually takes place in English.
  • You must be able to explain your reasoning about job weighings clearly and nuancedly to your interlocutors.
