HR Analyst III

Company Overview

At Zuora, we do Modern Business. We’re helping people subscribe to new ways of doing business that are better for people, companies and ultimately the planet. It’s an approach resulting from the shift to the Subscription Economy that puts customers first by building recurring relationships instead of one-time product sales and focuses on sustainable growth. Through our leading expertise and multi-product suite, we are transforming all industries and working with the world’s most innovative companies to monetize new business models, nurture subscriber relationships and optimize their digital experiences.

The Team & Role

You will be part of a growing HR team based in India, supporting Zuora’s India site and playing a key role in shaping the employee experience locally while partnering closely with global HR teams. Our team sits at the heart of the employee journey, ensuring that people processes are seamless, responsive, and delivered with care.

This is an exciting time to join Zuora. As the organization continues to grow and evolve, employee experience and the ability to build high-performing teams are critical to our success.

As an HR Analyst, you will work across teams, cultures, and functions, gaining exposure to a wide range of HR operations and shared services work. You will have opportunities to take ownership of processes, contribute to new initiatives, and help improve how we deliver HR services at scale.

The role also offers the chance to work with modern HR tools and explore the use of automation and AI to simplify processes and improve efficiency. If you are someone who enjoys problem-solving, improving ways of working, and making a real impact on employee experience, this role offers meaningful learning, growth, and visibility within a global SaaS organization.

This is a hybrid position, so you will work both remotely and in the office.
