• Iterate: Embrace continuous improvement and help embed it across the team.

About You

• Some experience in payroll, HR tech, employment law, or a related field—or keen to develop in this space.
• Curious & proactive: You ask questions, seek understanding, and love learning.
• Problem solver: You enjoy finding better ways to do things.
• Tech-aware: Comfortable with technology and eager to learn more.
• Team player: You thrive in collaborative environments and welcome feedback.
