You are comfortable navigating a complex environment, managing a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, and setting priorities effectively.

We’re looking for someone with a conceptual mindset and a proactive, solution-oriented approach. You can operate independently, but thrive in collaborative settings, engaging confidently with colleagues across disciplines and organisational levels.

Your strong communication skills help foster engagement and alignment. Committed to continuous learning, you are motivated to contribute to NN Group’s ambition to be a leading organisation in the industry.

Who you will work with

As Strategic Programme Manager at NN Group, you will be an integral part of the HR Strategy & Change team, reporting directly to the Management Board. Together with your Strategy & Change colleagues, you will define, implement, and communicate the HR Strategy to internal stakeholders. This includes managing major multi-country strategic initiatives and leading key HR programmes, supported by the team’s expertise in change management and communications.
