At Boeing, strong labor relations help our teams work through change, address concerns, and build a better workplace. As our Labor Relations Specialist your role is key to Boeing’s organization in Europe. You will be responsible for supporting European teams in managing their employee representative bodies, helping to roll out company projects, and ensuring that risks are identified along with appropriate action plans. The Labor Relations Specialist will also aim to strengthen employee engagement by identifying and removing frustrations and irritants, as well as implementing actions to improve working conditions.


The Labor Relations Specialist position is based in Germany as we are looking for someone with experience in supporting or managing labor relations in the country, while also having the ability and motivation to grow into a broader role covering other European countries where Boeing is implemented. This expansion into additional countries will be supported by the manager, HR, and appropriate training.


This role therefore offers significant development opportunities and would suit someone who is looking to grow, acquire new skills, and take on new challenges in their career.

  • Provide guidance and training to managers, HR and other managers on works council and union management, labor relations policies, collective bargaining agreement provisions, employee relations strategies and best practices
  • Meet regularly with employees through interviews or work assessments
  • Partner with labor relations specialists and functional partners to integrate and execute key actions following union or works council negotiations and work environment assessments
  • Centralize recurring issues and align stakeholders on action plans
  • Develop strong partnerships with business leaders and HR functions and create integrated solutions that foster a culture built on relationships, trust and engagement
