Job description

Overview

At KPMG, you’ll join a team of diverse and dedicated problem solvers, connected by a common cause: turning insight into opportunity for clients and communities around the world.

The HR Generalist for Tax and Geo Enablement will play a key role in delivering support to the Tax and Geo Enablement functions across the GTA through delivering on our Business Enablement vision and ‘how can I help you’ service culture. If you are someone who would like to support a team that is “doing and thinking differently” and are not afraid of bringing new ideas and fresh perspectives to the table, then we want to hear from you!

What you will do

• Provide administrative support for various HR processes including performance management, pay planning, employee listening and engagement initiatives.
• Create a variety of regular and ad hoc reports, with direction and assistance from the Tax HR Consultant.
• Develop and maintain excellent relationships with internal stakeholders and provide support in the execution of their accountabilities.
• Draft communications and presentations for internal stakeholders.
• Liaise with the Centres of Excellence such as Total Rewards, Inclusion and Diversity or Employee Relations (ERS) as needed.
• Collaborate with the HR Business Partner and Tax HR Consultant to implement talent strategies and ensure alignment with business needs.
• Support the HR Business Partner and Tax HR Consultant to create and implement employee engagement plans developed based on qualitative data collected from employees (stay interviews, exit interviews and focus groups etc.)
• Support the HR Business Partner and Tax HR Consultant in creating a diverse and inclusive work environment by identifying opportunities to embed diversity and inclusion in local processes and programs.
• Participate as a project team member on HR and People initiatives.

At times, business needs arise and employees are required and agree to work beyond their normal work day or work week to fulfill the accountabilities required for their job. Likewise, people need time to devote to personal matters, and our approach to flexibility provides for this.

What you bring to the role

• Bachelor’s degree in HR or a related field and post-secondary diploma or certificate in HR. A CHRP designation awarded or in process is considered an asset.
• 5+ years of experience in Human Resources in a fast-paced, corporate environment, with a solid understanding of HR concepts, policies, practices and governance/legislation.
• Strong business acumen and demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities for multiple stakeholders.
• Ability to develop strong relationships with internal clients, gain credibility, challenge the status quo and be viewed as a trusted advisor.
• Strong organizational and detail-oriented skills with the ability to work in a changing environment.
• An ability and familiarity to work well in a team environment.
• Strong technical proficiency and experience using Microsoft Office applications, including Excel and PowerPoint, and interest in learning new application functionality
