You'll play a key role in reviewing and enhancing the end-to-end people function, working cross-functionally with teams including PMO, Finance, IT, and Payroll to identify opportunities for improvement and streamline ways of working.

Key responsibilities

• Lead a full review of the people function, identifying efficiencies and improvement opportunities
• Partner with PMO, Finance, IT, and Payroll to align people processes with wider business operations
• Support the launch and evolution of the people strategy
• Work closely with existing HR leadership to enhance current frameworks
• Deliver change in a complex, global, environment

• Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence across functions
• Comfortable operating in a global, structured environment (experience with systems such as SuccessFactors is beneficial)
• Pragmatic and commercially aware, able to balance innovation with corporate frameworks
• Available to start at short notice

We are dedicated to fostering a diverse and inclusive community. We welcome applications from all qualified individuals, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disability.
