Your job

Help build a safe and ethical work environment. What do you do when someone does not feel safe speaking up? And how do you ensure that an individual report also contributes to improving the organization?

As an Integrity Coordinator, you help WUR further strengthen social safety and integrity. You listen to signals, carefully map out complex situations, and help determine what is needed. At the same time, you look ahead: what patterns do you see and what can we learn from them?

You collaborate with managers, HR, confidential counsellors, and the ombudsperson, among others. You connect people, knowledge, and perspectives and contribute to a work environment where people feel safe speaking up.

What will you be doing?

• you handle the intake and triage of reports and signals within the Social Safety Contact Point and carefully determine the appropriate next steps;
• you map out complex cases, prepare multidisciplinary discussions, and draft recommendations;
• you monitor the progress and coherence of the approach and work closely with managers and other involved disciplines;
• you recognize patterns and risks and translate these into improvements in policy, processes, and working methods;
• you contribute to a culture where social safety and integrity are open for discussion and people can hold each other accountable;
• together with another Integrity Coordinator, you further develop the working methods and positioning of this new role within WUR.
  
  

Your qualities

What do you bring?

• Academic working and thinking level;
• approximately 5 to 10 years of recent relevant experience with social safety, investigation, or complex cases;
• experience with giving advice within a complex organization and managing various interests;
• excellent communication skills in Dutch and English, both verbal and written;
• experience with confidential information and forming and expressing independent judgments;
• the ability to direct without formal power and to address people, regardless of their position, when necessary.
  
  

You are analytical, independent, and meticulous. You remain steadfast in complex or sensitive situations without losing sight of the human aspect. You are critical, dare to ask probing questions, and simultaneously seek solutions that help people and the organization move forward. You do not only see what is happening but also see what lies beneath and what is needed to make structural improvements. You enjoy collaborating, are reflective, and are open to learning.

Why this role?

This position connects the practice of reporting and cases with the development of the organization. You help people at important moments and use what you see to make WUR increasingly safer and more ethical.

Do you want to contribute to this? Then we would like to get to know you.
