Are you an experienced HR generalist with a talent for setting up processes from scratch? Our client, a global digital technology business, is looking for an Interim Head of HR Shared Services to set up their EU HR operations centre.

This is a 12-month project-based assignment based in Paris, where you'll be responsible for creating a shared services function from the ground up.

With excellent communication and negotiation skills, you'll be able to lead the team in establishing effective processes and provide guidance on best practices.

Additionally, our client is implementing the Workday software platform, and you will be required to spearhead this project alongside the new shared services function. A HR Project Manager for Workday will report to you in this respect. This is an excellent opportunity to showcase your expertise in transactional HR processes and demonstrate your ability to lead strategic initiatives.

To be considered, you'll need a Masters-level qualification in HR or CIPD 7 /equivalent and extensive experience creating a shared services function. As our client has operations in France and Germany, you must be fluent in French and ideally German too.

As the Interim Head of HR Shared Services, you'll be vital in optimising HR processes and driving efficiency across the entire organisation. So, if you're a results-driven individual who loves tackling complex challenges and is an expert in transactional HR processes, this is the perfect assignment for you.
