About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own the accuracy and completeness of all employee data across HRIS and related systems; identify and drive system integrations and automation opportunities to reduce manual effort and improve data integrity.
Execute semi-monthly and bi-weekly payroll processing for a global employee population, ensuring accuracy and compliance across multiple geographies, and partner with Finance on reconciliation and reporting.
Administer first-line compensation and benefits processes, including offer letter generation, merit cycle data management, enrolments, life events, and carrier coordination; serve as the primary employee-facing contact for benefits enquiries.
Own the full onboarding experience from offer acceptance through the first 90 days and manage offboarding end-to-end; continuously improve both processes based on employee feedback and operational efficiency opportunities.
Serve as the first point of contact for employee questions and concerns, providing accurate, timely, and empathetic responses; triage employee relations matters and escalate complex or risk-bearing issues to the Head of People appropriately.
Coordinate and execute annual and mid-year performance review cycles, including timeline management, system configuration, communication rollouts, and manager and employee support.
Maintain standard HR dashboards and reporting cadences (headcount, attrition, compensation, hiring activity); respond to ad hoc reporting requests and proactively surface data trends or anomalies to leadership.
