  • Support key year-end processes, including compensation, promotions, talent reviews and performance management
  • Liaise with other departments within and outside of Human Capital (i.e., Compensation, Benefits, DE&I and Talent Development, Talent Acquisition and Legal) as necessary to resolve issues.
  • Ensure compliance with internal policies and applicable employment regulations
  • Support ad hoc Human Capital projects as needed

QUALIFICATIONS
  • Bachelor's degree in HR, business, or a related field
  • 3 - 5 years of Human Resources experience preferred, ideally in a professional services, financial services, or technology-driven organization
  • Clear intellectual curiosity with the drive and potential to succeed in a fast-paced work environment, having shown comfort with the ambiguity of an evolving, dynamic firm
  • Strong execution and project management skills - highly organized, very detail oriented, proactive problem-solver, solutions-oriented, and a knack for anticipating obstacles and addressing issues early
  • High attention to detail and strong organizational skills
  • Ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
  • Advanced knowledge of MS Office, particularly Excel, Word and PowerPoint
