Summary/Abstract: The objective of the paper was to identify key competencies of personnel consultants/HR coordinators considering implementation of multi-location projects. In 2014; a quantitative-qualitative research was held; based on a questionnaire filled by employees of the company Work Service at such posts. The respondents were asked to select key competencies from a provided list of 32 skills and they could enter their own suggestions; too. During the data analysis; an attempt was made to identify differences between answers provided by respondents who achieved average and above-average financial results. The obtained results were analysed statistically. Average results and standard deviations were calculated. In order to define differences in relevance of key competencies; t-Student test was performed for independent samples; using the IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 software. Based on the respondents’ opinions; key competencies were identified for leaders of multi-location projects. It was revealed that the respondents had competency gaps in this area. The research confirmed that transformation of organisations into dispersed multi-location structures will require modification of competencies held nowadays by HR project leaders.
