Full Job Posting
About The Role
- You own two things that keep the organisation running: our people systems (HRIS, reporting, data quality, integrations) and our payroll coordination across group entities spanning Austria, Germany, Spain, Italy, the UK and Türkiye.
- The split is roughly 50/50 between systems and payroll.
- Payroll runs through Deel in all countries, in partnership with our internal accounting teams in each market; you prepare inputs, validate outputs, own the payroll calendar, and are the single point of accountability for it being right and on time.
- On the systems side, you are the group wide owner of Deel as our HRIS and of our people data.
- You report directly to the Head of People Operations and work closely with HR Ops Managers in each market and with Finance.
What You'll Do
- Own and administer Deel as our group HRIS: configuration, workflows, access, data quality
- Build and maintain people reporting — headcount, attrition, org data
- Manage integrations between Deel and other tools; own employee data flows end to end
- Drive the people systems roadmap: evaluate tools, lead implementations and migrations, automate manual processes
- Act as internal consultant to HR Ops Managers on process design and system usage
- Own the monthly payroll cycle for all group entities: collect and validate inputs (comp changes, absences, bonuses, joiners/leavers), process through Deel, review outputs before approval
- Work hand in hand with internal accounting teams in each country
- Own the payroll calendar and ensure statutory deadlines are met in every jurisdiction
- Reconcile payroll with Finance; support audits and year end processes
- Continuously improve payroll processes, controls and documentation; reduce error rates and manual effort
What You Bring
- 2 4 years of experience across payroll and HR systems: you have ideally run or coordinated payroll hands on, not only administered a tool
- Experience running multi country payroll through a global payroll platform: Deel experience is a strong advantage
- Strong HRIS administration experience including reporting and workflow configuration: ideally on Deel
- High accuracy and process discipline: you catch the error before payroll runs, not after
- Advanced Excel / Google Sheets; comfortable with data cleaning and reconciliation
- Fluent English (working language); able to work autonomously across time zones and entities
Nice to have
- Payroll certification (e.g. Personalverrechnerprüfung in AT, or equivalent in ES/DE)
- Spanish, German or Italian language skills
- Experience with HRIS/payroll system implementations or migrations
- Experience in a multi entity or M&A environment
