• Benefits and compensation: Support data gathering and engagement activities for benefits and compensation initiatives.

• People‑Centric Projects: Play a role in people‑focused projects, whether in response to business changes or new initiatives, to drive positive impact.

What You’ll Love About This Role

2. Own It: Take charge of lifecycle events from start to finish that will ensure an excellent employee experience for all Globallers.
3. Keep it Simple: Everything around people processes needs to embody this value.
4. Better Together: Collaborate across all parts of the People & Culture team.
