European Human Resources Director

I am Sara Elattar, an Executive Consultant, with over 10 years of experience in executive recruitment and consulting for top-tier companies. Projekts is proud to collaborate with over 600 clients, including Fortune 500 companies, operating in more than 20 countries worldwide.

We are currently seeking a European Human Resources Director. You will join a leading industrial group with 10,000 employees spread across 20 major production sites located at the heart of Europe’s key strategic regions. Within a division engaged in profound transformation, you are the architect of global HR policies, responsible for creating a coherent and ambitious vision fully aligned with the group’s growth strategy.

Your mission is to generate lasting performance; technological innovation, operational excellence, and proactive talent management come together to position the organization as an undisputed market leader.

Your role involves harmonizing HR processes across the continent, overseeing talent management, international mobility, skills development, compensation policies, and promoting diversity. As a genuine conductor of organizational transformation, you lead social dialogue, drive the evolution of roles, and support the digitalization of HR practices for the entire division. You ensure each site benefits from tailored support adapted to its local realities while fully respecting the group’s identity and values.

Joining this division means becoming part of a vibrant human adventure where collective engagement, product passion, and the pursuit of excellence are the foundations of our success. You will act as both an employer brand ambassador and catalyst for innovative initiatives designed to increase the group’s attractiveness. Here, every team member enjoys a work environment that values autonomy, creativity, and a strong team spirit.

You will promote a culture of inclusion, equity, and well-being, where diverse backgrounds and experiences fuel our capacity for innovation.

You will steer, in close collaboration with local HR and site managers, major projects such as training for emerging roles, mobility and personalized development programs, as well as well-being, recognition, and quality of life initiatives. This journey, driven by a vision of responsible growth, is an opportunity to make a difference, unite, and inspire around a set of core values—respect, innovation, and collective performance.

You hold a graduate degree in Human Resources, Business, or Employment Law, and have a proven track record in HR leadership roles within complex, multi-site international industrial environments. You’re renowned for your ability to unite multidisciplinary teams, your sharp understanding of economic and social challenges, and your capacity to embody strategic vision and inspire trust. Your marked personal qualities—listening, empathy, and natural leadership—allow you to combine performance and compassion, rallying teams around meaningful missions.

You are ready to play a pivotal role in the transformation of an ambitious industrial group, accelerate the modernization of HR practices, and help build an organizational model where every employee is a driver and creator of collective success.
