Lead People Ops

UpSlide is the document production layer for financial services. 

We orchestrate LLMs, machine learning, and workflow agents within Microsoft 365 to deliver reliable, quality outputs in the most efficient and cost-effective way. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, with 14+ years supporting financial services teams, we bring together expertise from the tech, finance and design fields to help clients like KPMG, BNP Paribas, Rothschild & Co. boost productivity while improving brand consistency across their corporate documents. 

We are a certified B Corporation, upholding the belief that businesses should have a positive impact on society.

Our values guide our approach to work and are at the heart of our recruitment process. To join our team, we look for individuals who value:

• →

  Make sure HR processes (onboarding, offboarding, contracts, payroll, personnel administration, ticket management) run error-free and on time

• →

  Regularly audit and optimise these processes

Example activities: map existing processes, test and roll out new tools or automations, retire processes that are no longer useful or too complex, renegotiate or evolve vendor contracts.

• Ensure People data (HR, payroll, administrative) is reliable, up to date and accessible to whoever needs it to deliver

Example activities: regularly audit the reliability and completeness of HR/payroll data in Lucca, structure user access and permissions, run high-ROI campaigns.

• Make sure every activity has clear objectives, an owner and clear KPIs, and that performance keeps improving over time

• Concentrate resources and effort on the highest-impact activities

Example activities: arbitrate priorities and resource allocation based on business impact.

• Set clear expectations, build a collaboration framework and team rituals

• Evaluate and grow your team's talent through regular feedback

• Drive continuous improvement of working methods, and lead by example on UpSlide's values and behaviours
  

• Map the key HR processes (onboarding, offboarding, contracts, payroll, tickets) and diagnose what to simplify, optimise, or kill

• Get the most out of Lucca, so it becomes our single source of truth, with as many processes/workflows/campaigns managed there as possible

• Set up a first steering framework defining the standards of excellence for the function

• Secure the run: zero payroll or administrative incidents during your onboarding period

• Processes rebuilt, killed, or simplified with a demonstrated gain in time or reliability

• 100% reliable HR data on at least the key scopes (contracts, absences, onboarding/offboarding)

• A simple dashboard in place, tracked monthly, showing the progress of 2-3 Ops KPIs

• Vendors or tools challenged/renegotiated
