At Vandebron, we're transforming the energy landscape, steering away from the conventional to champion sustainability. Born in 2014, our journey began with Chapter 1, disrupting the market with a transparent platform connecting consumers directly to local, green energy producers. Now, in Chapter 2, we are dedicated to ensuring 100% green energy availability, 100% of the time. Think smart solutions - flexible use of wind and solar farms, Smart EV Charging, and efficient energy storage.

No waiting around, we actively shape a sustainable future. Good energy, smart solutions - that's Vandebron.

Our People & Culture team consist of Recruitment, HR Operations, Learning & Development, Business Partners, and Office & Events.

What You Will Do

• Act as a trusted advisor for managers, coaching and guiding them on all People & Culture-related topics, ensuring an optimal employee journey to achieve our mission ASAP while making a valuable contribution to our employees and teams.

• Understand the business deeply and implement people solutions that meet both long-term and short-term needs.

• Provide a constructive and critical view on quality, effectively guiding managers in building high-performing teams.

• Translate internal and external HR developments and trends into People & Culture policies and processes, where you proactively identify and implement improvements.

• Autonomously manage and execute various projects, such cultural values & behavior, performance management and engagement. Where you align with the other People Business Partner and divide, tackle and implement projects together.

• Uphold Vandebron's cultural values and way of working by acting as a gatekeeper, challenging others, and leading by example.
