Make your mark for patients
We are looking for an HR Employee Experience Enablement Lead who is strategic, collaborative, and outcome-focused to join our Talent (HR) team, based in our Brussels office in Belgium.
Build the future of HR
We’re not looking for someone to optimize the status quo. We’re looking for someone to reinvent it.
As part of our HR transformation, we are redesigning how HR works – a unique momentum to build a next-generation HR framework – where digitalization, AI and design thinking come together to create a seamless, intelligent, and human-centered HR experience and radically simplify how we operate.
UCB already operates with a mature digital HR ecosystem. This role focuses on the next level: integrating AI, automation, and intelligent agents to drive step-change impact – not basic system implementation.
What makes this role different
This isn’t a traditional HR or automation role.
You will act as a strategy architect and catalyst for innovation, shaping how technology and people interact across the employee journey.
Think:
From fragmented processes → to end-to-end journey experiences
From manual work → to integrated solutions that drive efficiencies and measurable impact
From digital solutions→ to AI and agent enabled HR operating model
This is not a support role – it’s a result role
