About Us
Vinarchy. Redefining Wine.
Established in 2025 following the merger of Accolade Wines and Pernod Ricard Winemakers, Vinarchy is an exceptional global wine company committed to redefining wine.
Crafting extraordinary wines in Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Italy, South Africa, Chile and the United States, and sharing them in almost every corner of the world, we are relentlessly innovative, ambitious and imaginative at every stage from grape to glass.
About The Role
Reporting to the Head of HR Operations, the HR Operations Manager leads the HR Shared Services team and is a key contributor to the evolution of HR Operations across Vinarchy.
This role is accountable not only for the delivery of efficient, accurate and compliant HR services, but also for evolving HR Operations into a scalable, data-driven and digitally enabled function that supports the broader People & Communications strategy.
Operating at the intersection of people, process, technology and governance, the HR Operations Manager will play a critical role in simplifying ways of working, improving employee and manager experiences, strengthening data quality and controls, and enabling greater automation and self-service through the upcoming SAP SuccessFactors transformation.
Key Responsibilities Include:
HR Shared Services Leadership & Service Delivery
- Lead the global HR Shared Services team to deliver efficient, accurate and compliant support across the employee lifecycle.
- Ensure service levels, controls and operational performance remain effective throughout a period of organisational transformation.
- Establish and embed service management disciplines, including service catalogue ownership, escalation management, SLAs and continuous improvement practices.
