Is This Role For You?

Sitting within our vibrant, agile-focused HR Operations function, the HR Operations Specialist plays a key role in delivering accurate, efficient, and high-quality HR services to the business and wider People team. Working across the full employee lifecycle, you'll look after core HR processes and help resolve more complex employee queries (tier 2).

As part of a busy team navigating an exciting period of change, you'll help shape the ongoing development and improvement of HR operations, helping ensure processes run consistently and in line with company standards and SLAs. You'll collaborate closely with colleagues across HR, including HR Business Partners, payroll, and COEs, to provide reliable operational support and keep employee experience front and centre.

This is a varied role where you'll take care of key activities such as payroll coordination, HR reporting, benefits administration (including invoicing), and sensitive employee processes, while also supporting employee-facing activities such as parental leave activities and benefits sessions. You'll play an important role in maintaining data accuracy, supporting audits, and ensuring compliance with relevant legislation and internal policies.
