We are looking for an
HR Business Partner & Communication Manager
who will take a central role in driving change and creating value. In this position, you will lead a dedicated team, foster strong collaboration, and ensure that HR and Communication functions work seamlessly together. This is your chance to influence, develop, and contribute to an organization where innovation and sustainability go hand in hand.

Your opportunity:
As HR Business Partner and Communication Manager, you will act as a strategic partner to the business, enabling operations and supporting growth. You will lead the department with a focus on alignment and collaboration, ensuring that HR and Communication deliver effectively across the organization. This role offers a unique opportunity to make a significant impact and drive positive change in a dynamic environment.

Who you will work with:
In this position, you will guide a team of five dedicated specialists: two HR Business Partners, a Learning & Development Specialist, a Communicator, and an Administrator. Together, you will nurture organizational development, foster leadership and employee growth, support union relations, and champion both rehabilitation and continuous learning. While Talent Acquisition, payroll, and HR operational support are managed centrally, our HR function is unified — your role is to ensure that our efforts are closely aligned with the business's needs and aspirations.

You will report directly to the General Manager and collaborate as a valued member of the site's management team, working alongside department managers from the Mine, Mill, Projects, EHSQ, and Finance. Our shared commitment to company goals is deeply rooted in our core values:
care, courage, and responsibility
. We believe in creating an environment where every team member feels supported, empowered, and inspired to contribute to our collective success.

What will you do:

• Participate in the site management team and develop and implement strategies to support company goals
• Lead and manage the department to ensure alignment with business objectives
• Streamline processes to ensure efficiency and compliance with company policies
• Maintain a visible presence and provide operational support
• Ensure compliance with labor laws and company policies
• Engage in negotiations and ensure clear, quick, and informed decision-making
• Promote a positive and productive work environment

What you bring:
To excel in this role, you are a present and empathetic leader who builds strong relationships and fosters effective collaboration. You make decisions with a broad perspective, bringing structure and clarity even in complex situations. Challenges are met with courage and perseverance, and you maintain a positive, humble attitude. As a leader, you create psychological safety within your team, encouraging a culture where everyone feels empowered to contribute, grow, and take responsibility.

Integrity is central to your approach, and you act proactively to ensure compliance with regulations, policies, and agreements. You demonstrate initiative and drive, and you are skilled at bridging communication between the mine and the mill, promoting seamless cooperation across departments.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Human Resources or a related field
• Certification as an HR Manager or HR Business Partner is an advantage
• Proven experience in HR management and business support, preferably within a similar industry
• Ability to navigate and lead through periods of growth
• Personal qualities such as integrity, commitment, and strong interpersonal skills
• Excellent communication skills and fluency in both Swedish and English
• A valid driver's license

Why work with us:
At Boliden, we believe in promoting a workplace where care, courage, and responsibility are central to everything we do. We offer a workplace where we believe in collaboration and where what you contribute will have a direct impact on future generations. We are a company made up of responsible and creative people all working towards the same vision; to become the most sustainable and respected metal supplier in the world.
