• 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

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).
