Visier is the leader in people analytics.

Recently closing a hugely successful funding round and a landmark $1b valuation, Visier is embarking on an incredible phase of its 12 year growth Journey.

Reporting to Ryan Wong, our Chief Executive Officer, this role will partner with Senior Leaders, globally, to define and deliver people strategies and will own the operating plan that grows our people, processes and the platforms that power our HR function.

Visier’s HR function aspires to be a model of practice for how organizations use data to drive people decisions.

  • Develop and drive strategies for effective management of total workforce cost and HR function spend.
  • Identify the people, process, and technology requirements needed in order to align with our continued growth and develop business cases and budget plans needed for this purpose
  • Lead and execute a global total rewards strategy (compensation and benefits) that is market competitive while attracting talent and maintaining fairness across Visier.

  • Strengthen our global programs, including leave programs, employee experience (onboarding and offboarding), engagement, and performance management.
  • Own all aspects of people compliance globally, including our policies and practices.
  • Provide coaching and support to the P&C team including; People Operations, HR Business Partners, Learning & Development Resources, and Talent Acquisition.

  • Data driven by default. You see a world where business impact and purpose are not mutually exclusive trade-offs
  • An energetic and inspiring leader.

  • Never stop learning. You seek out opportunities to break from convention and design processes, programs and systems that drive company performance
  • Outcome-focused, non-bureaucratic, and collaborative leadership style. You are informed, and not constrained by the traditional definitions of the HR function
  • Executive level communication skills. You have both the professional credibility and behavioural characteristics that power you to influence others and instill confidence across the organisation
