**The Goal**

Are you someone who genuinely cares about how HR works _in practice_, not just on paper? Do you enjoy bringing order to complexity, improving how things run, and making sure people have a smooth, reliable experience at work?

We’re looking for an HR Operations Partner to join our People function and play a pivotal role in how HR services are delivered across the organisation. This is a senior, hands-on role at the heart of HR Operations, where you’ll lead shared-services delivery, drive our HR systems and data integrity, and help shape how HR scales globally.

You’ll work closely with HR colleagues, managers, and cross-functional partners across multiple geographies, acting as a trusted operational expert and escalation point. Alongside day-to-day delivery, you’ll drive continuous improvement, support global alignment, and contribute to HR digital transformation, including automation and AI-enabled solutions.

This role is ideal for someone who has operated within, or helped evolve, a shared-services HR operating model and understands what “good” looks like in high-volume, high-accuracy HR operations.

**What You’ll Be Doing**

**HR Operations & Shared Services Delivery**

You’ll lead the day-to-day delivery of HR Operations, ensuring services are consistent, accurate, and delivered to a high standard.

-   Own shared-services HR delivery across the full employee lifecycle, including onboarding, contractual changes, employee data updates, documentation, leavers, and offboarding
-   Act as the Tier 2 / Tier 3 escalation point for complex employee and manager queries, providing confident, pragmatic operational guidance
-   Ensure HR transactions are completed accurately, on time, and in line with defined controls and expectations
-   Draft, review, and quality-check employment letters, contractual documentation, policies, and formal HR communications
-   Support the creation and ongoing improvement of HR playbooks, knowledge articles, and service documentation

**HR Systems, Data & Insights**

You’ll take ownership of HR systems and data from an operational perspective, ensuring accuracy, reliability, and insight.

-   Own HRIS administration from an HR Operations service-delivery perspective, including data quality, workflows, reporting, and audits
-   Perform regular data audits, reconciliations, and quality assurance reviews to maintain high data integrity
-   Deliver meaningful HR reporting and analytics (e.g. headcount, attrition, absence, compliance), using insight to drive operational improvement
-   Translate HR operational needs into clear requirements to inform HRIS and IT-led solutions
-   Troubleshoot system issues and continuously optimise system performance and adoption

**Process Design, Scale & HR Ops Roadmap**

You’ll help shape how HR Operations works now and how it needs to work as the organisation grows.

-   Design, document, and optimise end-to-end HR operational processes within a shared-services model
-   Drive process improvements that streamline delivery, increase scalability, and strengthen compliance across geographies
-   Implement SOPs and standardised workflows across HR, Payroll, and Talent Acquisition
-   Contribute to the HR Operations roadmap, supporting harmonisation, standardisation, and service maturity
-   Identify and resolve operational inefficiencies that impact service quality or resilience

**AI, Automation & Digital Enablement**

You’ll play a hands-on role in modernising HR Operations through smart use of technology.

-   Identify and champion opportunities for automation and AI-enabled solutions from an HR Operations and employee experience perspective, partnering with HRIS and IT for delivery
-   Support the rollout and optimisation of employee and manager self-service tools
-   Partner with HRIS, IT, and People leaders to ensure AI is used responsibly, compliantly, and effectively
-   Champion data-led, technology-enabled ways of working across HR Operations

**Compliance, Risk & Governance**

You’ll help ensure HR Operations is robust, compliant, and audit-ready.

-   Support compliance with employment law, GDPR, internal policies, and audit controls
-   Strengthen practices around right-to-work checks, employment documentation, data privacy, and internal controls
-   Research and apply relevant legal and regulatory frameworks across applicable jurisdictions
-   Support audits, risk reviews, and compliance programmes with clear documentation and evidence trails

**Stakeholder & Global Collaboration**

You’ll work closely with colleagues across HR and the wider business.

-   Build strong working relationships with global HR teams and internal stakeholders, ensuring responsiveness and transparency
-   Partner with HR Business Partners, Payroll, Talent Acquisition, Finance, IT, and external vendors to deliver joined-up HR services
-   Manage ad-hoc HR projects including policy development, policy updates, and global HR initiatives

**The Player**

-   **5–8+ years’ experience** in HR Operations and/or HR Shared Services, with ownership of end-to-end service delivery
-   Proven experience working within, or helping to build, a shared-services HR operating model
-   Strong practical knowledge of employment law and HR operational governance
-   Hands-on experience with HRIS platforms such as UKG, Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or similar
-   Experience owning HR data quality, reporting, audits, and operational controls
-   Experience partnering with Payroll and Finance (without owning payroll processing)

-   Confidence handling complex or sensitive operational matters with professionalism and sound judgement
