Om tjänsten
Nordic Investin is recruiting a Head of Leadership and Succession on behalf of one of our partner companies. You care about people
work that is commercially aware, fair and useful in practice, and you build trust without avoiding difficult decisions.
The partner is strengthening its capability in leadership pipelines and succession decisions for critical roles. You will take
responsibility for work that connects succession planning, executive assessment and talent reviews, while ensuring that
development portfolios and governance receive appropriate discipline. The objective is progress that colleagues can use and
leaders can evaluate.
The people function combines employee experience, reliable judgement, usable processes and respect for sensitive information.
HOW YOU WILL WORK
You will work close to leaders and remain visible to the wider organisation. The role requires sound judgement about when to
coach, when to challenge and when a formal process must take priority. Commitments should be followed through and difficult
messages should remain clear and respectful.
This role calls for visible leadership and disciplined decision making. You will be expected to recognise when a decision needs
wider expertise, make trade-offs visible and move work forward without creating unnecessary process.

Nordic Investin will make sure you understand the opportunity before asking you to make a decision.
