Role Purpose

People Services & Operations (incl.Payroll) includes roles working across multiple advisory & administration areas deployed for established HR solutions. Responsibilities include: employment matters; personnel records administration; statistical reporting; rewards program deployment; payroll delivery and compliance; people service support provision; automation of workflows.
Professional stream includes those who are individual contributors with main emphasis on applying technical/discipline knowledge rather than managing people to achieve results – although coaching/mentoring less experienced staff, informal supervisory responsibilities, or overseeing work of other lower level professionals or manage processes and program are common.

The people advisor provides strategic and administrative support to one or more members of the leadership team, enabling them to focus on high-priority objectives. This role is essential for ensuring the smooth day-to-day operations and requires a blend of discretion, organization, proactivity, and strong interpersonal skills.
