Overview

Senior Systems and Data Analyst – UK or Ireland (9 months fixed term)

Having acquired multiple acquisitions with circa. 1,000 staff across numerous employing entities and 14 payrolls (predominantly UK and Ireland), we now need to identify the best solution to align our different employment terms and conditions, benefits, and amalgamation of employing entities into a streamlined, standardised offering that is easier to manage, cost neutral and accompanies our strategic direction. This will be a complicated exercise. In addition to a number of legacy terms and conditions, plus non-/contractual benefits, there will undoubtedly be individuals with contractual arrangements who do not align with an entity’s standard offering. The expected timeframe to achieve alignment is within nine months from now.

• Work with internal HR, Finance, Payroll, Employee Benefits, and IT colleagues to ensure uniform/master data architecture and integrity
• Work with these colleagues to determine the design and development of configuration requirements, within a roadmap prioritisation for our HRIS third party vendor
• Fulfil time-driven turnaround of quality data for external reporting (e.g. Gender Pay Gap, ESG assessments, tender submissions, employee benefits and insurance renewals)
• Work with Power BI to design and feed the Group’s Management Information dashboard reports
• Manage our external v. internal headcount and associated salary benchmarking, plus all other remuneration factors
• Proactively manage the seamless collection and migration of data during implementation phase, so that nothing breaks when moving people and payroll data, and creating mail-merged letters

Experience and skill set required

• Minimum 5 years of complex payrolls, benefits and/or HR systems and data analysis
• Extensive business data modelling involving complex analysis to form critical business decisions
• Can map, sequence and deliver multiple data migrations
