What might your days look like 

We're a team of global innovators, who cherish diverse perspectives that fuel our mission; to simplify the world of work for SMBs worldwide.

As our HR Implementation Specialist, you will be the primary contact point for customers during implementations. You will work with Project Managers, Payroll specialists and Data analysts within project teams to deliver great outcomes for our customers.
