People Systems Specialist (Analyst) - iTrent

About the role

As a People Systems Specialist (Analyst), you’ll be a key contributor to the design, implementation, maintenance and continuous improvement of system and process solutions that comply with UK legislation, meet business requirements and align to an overarching Digital First strategy.

You’ll lead on ensuring our P&C, Learning and Engagement systems work effectively and collaborate with key teams like Payroll, IT and external suppliers to maintain and improve system functionality for our people.

We’ll also rely on you to act as a subject matter expert for MHR iTrent, our HRIS, including configuration, APIs and data mapping, workflows, access management, bug fixes and query resolution.

Providing advice and guidance on the best practice use of the MHR iTrent and identifying solutions to any problem that arises will be an important aspect of the role too.

And, when it comes to overseeing data entry, cleansing, import and export using system tools and data reconciliation to ensure all data held is accurate and up-to-date, again, we’ll count on you.
