- Document and standardise ways of working: Create, maintain and improve process documentation, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and guidelines to ensure consistency, clarity and efficiency across People operations.

- Navigate and drive change: Lead projects through organisational change, navigating ambiguity, shifting priorities and resistance while engaging stakeholders and supporting successful adoption.

- Drive continuous improvement: Identify opportunities to simplify processes, improve efficiency and leverage AI tools and technologies to strengthen People operations and ways of working.

## What you’ll bring

- 2+ years of experience in Project Management: A proven ability to coordinate and deliver projects, manage competing priorities and keep initiatives on track.

- Fluency in English to a professional business level, both spoken and written.

- Strong stakeholder management, communication and collaboration: You build positive relationships across teams, communicate clearly, manage expectations and bring different perspectives together to drive alignment.

- A proactive, hands-on mindset with ownership and accountability: You take initiative, work independently and follow through on commitments to deliver results.

- Problem-solving, decision-making and continuous improvement: You approach challenges pragmatically, make informed decisions and proactively identify ways to improve processes and ways of working.

- Change management and adaptability: You have experience navigating and supporting organisational change, bringing stakeholders along, managing resistance and maintaining momentum in evolving environments.
