Your role of People Advisor will pave the way in promoting a seamless and customer-focused experience across the employee lifecycle, and supporting our people (we call them Wisers) to do what they do best at Wise.

You’re someone who’ll keep on track with your “business as usual” Employee Relations caseload, but you’re equally inquisitive and hungry to understand what the data’s telling us and how else we can strengthen the overall Wiser experience… it's that inclusive growth mindset which is key to the success of our team.

You’ll also play a vital role in how we do things as a global team, collaborating on key projects and unlocking big-picture and analytical thinking to help grow and scale our team’s impact on the business.

Achieving your mission:

Act as a trusted Advisor, owning ER matters end-to-end within your dedicated business functions, supporting and advising Wisers and Leads through a significant volume and range of complex situations (from issues with performance to conflict management), and balancing our exposure and appetite to risk in the process.
Partner with People Advisors around the globe in any cross-geographical ER cases, navigating complexity and flexibility with DEI and legal considerations.
Collaborate with People Partners to complement their functional business insights with your ER data and expertise.
Analyse and identify data-driven trends to help educate and advise our functions and the Senior Leadership team on business focus areas and better ER practices.
Proactively keep up to date with local employment laws and working practices, sharing knowledge and collaborating with the People Support sub-team to ensure our guidelines, policies and processes are compliant and we continue to give customer-centric advice.
Review our current and evolving operational processes (across all aspects of the Wiser journey from onboarding to off-boarding) and identify improvements to help us scale the impact of the People team without compromising the Wiser experience.
Own and contribute to projects both on a local and global level, providing advisory input to help us collaboratively shape the future of Wise as we continue to grow.
Update and deliver People-related training sessions in order to upskill our Leads and address knowledge gaps that are highlighted in our ER data.
Provide additional support to the wider People team and other leaders with ad-hoc tasks/data queries and project-based work.
