What will I be doing?

• Own the People service desk queue day-to-day: triaging, responding to, and resolving employee queries, and keeping response times and queue health on track.

• Continuously improve our Jira Service Desk itself - refining triage, workflows, and automations - and feed recurring ticket themes back into our People Bot's knowledge base, so the answers people get before they ever need a human just keep getting better.

• Be the main point of contact for new joiners between offer and day one, partnering with Talent Acquisition to make pre-boarding seamless and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

• Own and continuously improve the onboarding experience end-to-end - from offer acceptance to day one and beyond - so every new hire feels genuinely welcomed and set up for success.

• Support payroll inputs, benefits administration, and compliance activities, making sure our processes hold up against internal policy and employment law requirements.

• As you grow into the role: help audit and redesign People processes, identifying where automation, AI, or self-service can reduce manual effort and put information directly in employees' hands.

• Roll up your sleeves on cross-functional People projects as they come up - whether that's a Reward cycle, a hiring initiative, or an experience improvement.

• Some exposure to payroll input processes, or strong eagerness to learn them, with the attention to detail accurate processing demands.

• Some experience administering employee benefits (enrolment, changes, queries), and comfortable being a point of contact when something needs sorting.

• A habit of noticing when a process is clunky and saying so - you don't need to have led a full redesign yet, but you think about why something works the way it does.

• Experience using a service desk tool (Jira or similar) to manage and triage a queue, with a good instinct for keeping things moving and knowing what needs escalating.

• Awareness of…
