-
Collaborate cross-functionally with HRBPs, Talent Acquisition, Legal, Finance, and IT to deliver consistent processes and a seamless employee experience across the EMEA region.
-
Stay current on French employment law, social security regulations, and HR best practices; proactively flagging risks, recommending policy updates, and serving as the in-house subject matter expert on France.
-
Identify and lead process improvements, with a focus on automation, ticket deflection, and self-service, and using data from Jira, Workday, and other systems to prioritize what to fix next.
-
Contribute to broader People Operations projects across EMEA and globally, including M&A integrations, entity changes, mobility cases, and program rollouts.
