About HITEC
Founded in 1986, HITEC is a 100%-owned Luxembourg engineering and technology company with around 60 employees offering high technology solutions across business areas including satellite ground segment, equipment for testing and measuring of physical properties, traffic management and mission critical systems. With a multidisciplinary, client-centric approach, we serve both private, institutional and public sector clients nationally and internationally. As the company continues to develop and grow, we are looking for an HR Manager who will play a key role in supporting our growth, strengthening our people practices and helping us build a modern, efficient and business-oriented HR function.
THE ROLE

While this is a standalone role, the successful candidate may benefit from administrative support resources as the HR function develops. Recruitment, employer branding and people development will be key priorities, alongside the professionalisation and digitalisation of HR processes. The position can be tailored between 75% to 100%, depending on the candidate's profile, experience and preferences.
