- People data and workforce economics — give leadership a reliable, shared view of headcount, people costs and workforce trends, and turn it into recommendations before decisions are made.

## What you'll do

Build and lead the hub

- Set the hub's vision, roadmap and ways of working; lead and grow your three experts and manage specialist providers with clear accountability.
- Define who decides what with People Partners, Finance, Legal, Payroll and People Operations & Tech, and shape our People strategy as a member of the People Leadership Team.

- Lead the annual compensation review with Finance, and advise executives and People Partners on offers, promotions, retention and organisational changes.
- Monitor internal equity and market competitiveness, and get Back Market ready for the EU Pay Transparency Directive.

Steer our equity programmes (stock options and BSPCE)

- Own equity principles, governance and the role of equity in total compensation, with Finance and Legal.
- Guarantee a reliable, documented and auditable lifecycle from grant to exit, and help employees understand and value their equity.

Turn People data into decisions

- Own the HR Cockpit priorities and the definition of our key People metrics, built on Workday and aligned with company data standards.
- Co-steer workforce planning and the people cost trajectory with Finance (headcount, compensation, equity, benefits, contingent workers), with scenarios for organisational decisions.

- Credibility with a CEO, a CFO and an Executive Committee: you bring fact-based recommendations and challenge constructively.
- Sound judgement balancing fairness, business needs, market competitiveness and financial sustainability.
- A builder mindset: you enjoy shaping a hub that is still taking form with a lean team, and you stay close enough to the detail to guarantee quality.
