We are seeking a Global HR Operations Specialist to join our People Shared Services organization. You will manage the "Hire-to-Retire" employee lifecycle, partnering closely with HR Business Partners, managers, and employees across multiple regions. This role is critical in ensuring compliant, efficient, and employee-friendly standard HR processes worldwide.

This role is the backbone of our global HR data accuracy and operational rigor. You will independently own data-intensive HR lifecycle processes, ensuring flawless execution and compliance. The role requires exceptional attention to detail, discipline in following and improving processes, and the ability to spot and correct inconsistencies before they become issues.

If you are ready to tackle the complexity of international HR, drive significant process improvements, and become a Workday expert while doing so, this opportunity is for you.

What your impact will be: 

This role is the cornerstone of our HR data accuracy and operational efficiency worldwide, requiring a meticulous approach to global administration:

• Global Transaction Management: Execute complex HR lifecycle transactions (hires, moves, terminations, comp changes) with zero tolerance for errors.
• Payroll & Benefits Management: Own preparation and validation of payroll and benefits inputs; ensure discrepancies are flagged and corrected in advance.
• Data Quality & Auditing: Perform recurring audits on employee and organizational data, resolving mismatches before they escalate.
• Documentation & Process Control: Maintain clear, version-controlled process documentation; ensure the team follows globally consistent standards.
• Compliance & Policy Adherence: Apply region-specific rules (labor laws, data privacy) rigorously and escalate exceptions with documented rationale.
• Workday administration: Manage end-to-end transactions and troubleshoot errors with precision.

We are looking for:

• A detail-obsessed executor who thrives on catching errors others miss
• Comfort with large datasets, reconciliations, and root-cause analysis in Excel/Sheets
• A structured thinker who can work with broad guidance but apply their own process rigor.
• An independent, structured thinker who can work with broad guidance but apply their own process rigor.
• Experience in managing multi-country HR administrative tasks
• Prior exposure to global Payroll and Benefits administration and Workday HCM are a significant advantage.

What you will bring.

• 5 to 10 years of experience in HR Operations or HR Shared Services, with a strong hold over high-volume transactional HR Administration.
• Mandatory Multi-Regional Experience: Hands-on experience managing HR administrative tasks and data for at least two regions (US, EMEA, APJ).
• Experience in Payroll/Benefits Data Management: Experience with the preparation and validation of data related to regional payroll and benefits processing.
• Experience with a major HRIS platform (e.g., Workday, SuccessFactors). Prior experience with Workday is highly beneficial and will accelerate your success in this role.

Core Skills and Competencies:

• Data-orientation: Zero-tolerance for data errors and an ability to manipulate large data sets using Excel / Google Sheets.
• Process Execution: Manage data intensive transactions without supervision, catering to stakeholder needs while adhering to standard workflows.
• Stakeholder Communication: Outstanding ability to communicate complex data and process issues clearly and concisely.
