We are looking for a Project Lead to bring structure, consistency and control to our HR data environment. Our core systems (SuccessFactors, Workable, Compensation model, Talent Review spreadsheets, Culture Amp and Excel MI packs) currently require significant manual reconciliation. Data doesn’t always align, reporting is time-intensive, and fields are not consistently defined. This role is about making our existing systems work coherently and reliably - quickly and pragmatically - before any longer-term integration decisions are made.

12-month Fixed Term Contract Immediate / short notice start preferred Hybrid working environment: 3 days per week in our central London office Clearly defined scope with potential to extend

Core Objectives

1. Align HR Data Across Systems Map key data fields, define clear sources of truth, resolve inconsistencies and introduce reconciliation controls: so reporting is accurate, consistent and cross-referenced with confidence.

2. Build Structured Interim Interfaces (Excel-Based) Design clean import/export templates, standardise field mapping and introduce validation controls to create simple, repeatable and low-risk manual data movement.

3. Improve & Operationalise HR MI Streamline current reporting processes, remove manual bottlenecks and rebuild MI templates to deliver robust, sustainable Compensation and HR reporting (initially Excel-based).

What This Role Is Not This is not a full HR transformation or enterprise systems overhaul. It’s a focused, high-impact project to bring structure, discipline and reliability to our existing HR data environment. We’re open-minded on background. You might be a Technical Business Analyst, a data-focused HR Operations professional, a reporting specialist, or from consulting, systems or platform teams. HR experience is helpful but not essential: technical rigour and structured thinking matter more. We’re looking for someone who:

• Thinks clearly and structurally about data
• Enjoys solving alignment and reconciliation challenges
• Builds practical, usable solutions
• Works independently and pragmatically
• Communicates confidently with non-technical stakeholders If you genuinely enjoy bringing order to messy data environments, this role will suit you.

Requirements

Essential

• Advanced Excel (complex formulas, structured templates, validation and reconciliation logic)
• Strong data mapping and structuring capability
• Experience aligning data across multiple systems
• Process documentation skills
• Strong analytical thinking

Desirable

• Experience with SuccessFactors, Workable or similar HRIS
• Experience building MI packs
• Business Analyst or consulting background
• Experience working in lean teams
