Who are you?

You don't need to be a developer or heavy backend configurator.
This role is much moreHRIS super user + reporting + problem solver.
You'll be comfortable talking to People & Culture stakeholders one minute and system vendors or technical support teams the next, translating between the two without making things unnecessarily complicated.
