As Senior Manager, People Systems & Analytics, you will be the strategic architect and technical authority behind M-KOPA’s People technology ecosystem. This role goes beyond system administration—you’re the go-to specialist for designing, optimizing, and scaling digital solutions that empower our People & Workplace Experience (PWX) team and elevate the employee experience.

You’ll lead the transformation of our HRIS/people systems landscape, ensuring data integrity, seamless integrations, and actionable insights that drive smarter decisions across the business.

You will be the subject matter expert across all People Technology platforms, driving the integration of HR systems, advanced analytics, and AI solutions to enable smarter, data-driven workforce decisions at M-KOPA. This role blends deep HRIS expertise with cutting-edge data analytics and AI implementation, ensuring both operational excellence and strategic innovation in how we manage and leverage data.

What You’ll Do

HRIS & Systems Ownership

Serve as the subject matter expert on People Systems, including HiBob (core HRIS), Culture Amp, Freshservice, Progression, Notion, Docusign and other performance and engagement platforms.

Lead the design, configuration, and continuous improvement of HR systems to meet evolving business, compliance, and user experience needs.

Translate business requirements into technical specifications, workflows, and system enhancements that balance scalability, compliance, and user adoption.

Manage vendor relationships for People Tech platforms, including contracts, renewals, SLAs, and roadmap alignment.

Partner closely with Senior People Partners (SPPs), the Legal team, IT Operations, Finance, Business Leaders, and the People Leadership Team (PLT) to ensure system configurations, data governance, and process automation are aligned with organizational goals, regulatory requirements, and workforce strategies.

Act as a bridge between technical solutions and people priorities, ensuring cross-functional stakeholders are engaged, trained, and confident in using People Systems effectively.
