Marketing - Business/Commerce (general) / functie (cv)
Dutch term or phrase: Chef Arbeidsvoorwaarden / Personeelsregelingen
Staat op een cv zonder verdere toelichting.

Iemand ideeën hoe je deze functie zou noemen in het Engels? Ik vond op IATE wel "Terms of Employment Department" voor "Arbeidsvoorwaarden" maar daar krijg ik niet veel Google hits op. "Personeelsregelingen" kan ik vooralsnog nergens vinden.

I used a combination of the answers given here, so it is a shame I can't award points to multiple people. I think I used "head of labour conditions / office administrator". Thanks all for your suggestions.

Head of personnel employment conditions


Explanation:
I would use "employment conditions" as being more general than "terms of employment".

Arbeidsvoorwaarden / Personeelsregelingen
Terms of Employment / Employment Statutes


Explanation:
I have seen personnel schemes, human resource plans, and other similar variations in my own experience, but EurLex suggests General Employment Statutes for 'personeelsregelingen'.

I found a document that lists "Head of Terms of Employment and Industrial Relations" - but it is an English translation of a Dutch original. Rather than listing it as a job title ("head of..."), perhaps you could translate it as "(person) in charge of / responsible for..."?
