Are you energized by the challenge of running excellent day-to-day People Operations that shape the employee experience? We’re looking for a Senior People Operations Specialist to join our People Operations team in France. This is an exciting role for someone who can manage the full employee lifecycle, partner with employees, and take ownership of key People programs. You’ll serve as a trusted point of contact for our France-based population while collaborating with a global team to deliver consistent, compliant, and human-centered experiences.

In your day to day you will:

• Own the end-to-end employee lifecycle for France — including onboarding, contract management, internal transfers, leaves, and offboarding, ensuring every touchpoint is timely, accurate, and aligned with French labor law (Code du travail, conventions collectives).

• Serve as the primary point of contact for France-based employees and managers, providing clear, empathetic guidance on People Operations policies, programs, and processes.

• Manage all leave of absence cases (maternité, paternité, parental, congé maladie, RTT, sabbatical) end-to-end, partnering with médecine du travail, managers, and external providers to ensure compliant, supportive employee experiences.

• Maintain Workday data integrity for the France population, processing employee transactions and partnering with People Technology on system enhancements, audits, and reporting.

• Partner with Payroll (internal and external providers) to ensure accurate, on-time monthly payroll inputs, including variable pay, absences, and statutory contributions.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with HRBPs, Talent Acquisition, Legal, Finance, and IT to deliver consistent processes and a seamless employee experience across the EMEA region.

• Stay current on French employment law, social security regulations, and HR best practices;  proactively flagging risks, recommending policy updates, and serving as the in-house subject matter expert on France.

• Identify and lead process improvements, with a focus on automation, ticket deflection, and self-service, and using data from Jira, Workday, and other systems to prioritize what to fix next.

• Contribute to broader People Operations projects across EMEA and globally, including M&A integrations, entity changes, mobility cases, and program rollouts.

What We’re Looking For:

• 4+ years of progressive experience in HR / People Operations, with deep, hands-on expertise in French labor law, social security, and payroll inputs. Experience supporting other EMEA countries is a strong plus.

• Demonstrated experience managing leaves of absence, accommodations, benefits programs, and employee lifecycle events independently and end-to-end
