Associate HR Analyst - APAC

We are looking for an Associate HR Analyst, to join the Human Resources team in Manila, supporting our APAC markets. This is an early-career position that plays a key operational role supporting our Regional HR Business Partners (HRBPs), ensuring our people processes run smoothly across multiple markets.

You will work closely with the Regional HRBP, Total Rewards, Talent Acquisition (TA), People Service Delivery (PSD), and business leaders across the region, contributing to a seamless employee experience and helping turn people priorities into action. You will support key HR processes, provide insights and follow-up, and help ensure that our people practices are consistently and effectively delivered across the region in line with global guidelines.

This role is designed for someone who thrives in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and is energized by problem-solving. It is a permanent, hybrid position based in Manila, with three days per week in the office.

What You Will Do

Hiring and Selection

• Support the Regional HRBP in submitting hiring requests to TA through Workday
• Share regular updates with the Regional HRBP on hiring status and flag any potential hiring risks or challenges

Onboarding and Offboarding

• Coordinate and facilitate welcome meetings and inductions for new hires
• Ensure hiring managers take an active role in a standardized onboarding and induction template, and contribute to the onboarding process where necessary
• Conduct the scheduled check-in meetings with new employees and their managers; document key findings and flag risks to the Regional HRBP
• Track onboarding and offboarding processes: documentation, system updates, coordination with legal providers, and final payment follow-up
• Conduct the exit interview for voluntary resignations and analyze exit surveys to flag risks or challenges to the Regional HRBP
• Ensure all people movement events are processed accurately and on time in Workday

HR Employee Support

• Act as a point of contact for complex HR queries related to employee relations, policies and procedures, performance, and compensation from employees and managers across APAC
• Collaborate with PSD on complex employee queries related to other HR topics such as time-off requests and balances, Workday challenges, and more
• Liaise with PSD on open Jira tickets and ensure timely resolution and follow-up
• Actively contribute to the FAQ and knowledge base for recurring questions to reduce query volume over time, in partnership with the broader HR team

Engagement Plan Execution Support

• Support the execution of the APAC Engagement Plan (Career Path Program, Recognition Program, AI and Automation initiatives)
• Coordinate logistics for engagement activities: communications, scheduling, materials, and tracking
• Assist in collecting and organizing data for engagement surveys and post-program follow-ups

HR Systems and Data Integrity (HRIS)

• Own the accuracy of Workday organizational structures: positions, attributes, reporting lines, and job profiles
• Perform regular audits to ensure all people movements (new hires, transfers, promotions, terminations) are correctly reflected in the system
• Cross-check open positions in Workday against workforce planning data and flag discrepancies to the Regional HRBP
• Coordinate with HR teams globally to resolve data inconsistencies
• Prepare HR reports on demand: headcount, open positions, engagement metrics, and data sanity checks
• Support the Regional HRBP with data preparation for leadership presentations and business reviews
• Maintain data hygiene across HR tracking tools (spreadsheets, Workday exports, dashboards)

What We Are Looking For

Background

• A degree in Human Resources (Human Resource Management), Labor Relations, Organizational Psychology, or a related field

Experience

• 1 to 3 years of HR experience in dynamic, fast-moving environments (for example HR operations, HR generalist, or HRIS support)
• Experience with HRIS platforms (Workday experience is a strong plus, not a requirement)
• Exposure to multi-country HR operations is valued but not mandatory

Skills

• Advanced English, written and spoken; most team communication is in English
• Google Workspace (Google Sheets, Docs, Slides): advanced level required
• AI tools literacy (familiarity with Claude or similar tools is a plus)
• Analytical mindset: comfortable working with data, spotting inconsistencies, and building clean reports

What Will Set You Apart

• High tolerance for ambiguity: you don’t need everything to be defined to take action
• Dynamism: you shift context quickly and don’t lose quality when the pace picks up
• Comfort with uncertainty: you see change as the norm, not the exception
• Proactive communication: you flag issues before they become problems
• Discretion: you handle sensitive information with care and sound judgment

Why Join Aleph

• Real impact across APAC: Your accuracy in Workday and your follow-through keep hiring, onboarding, and people movements running smoothly across multiple markets, and your insights help the Regional HRBP and business leaders decide what to do next.
• A clear path into HR business partnering: Learn the HRBP craft from the inside (employee relations, workforce planning data, leadership business reviews) with day-to-day exposure to the Director, HR Business Partners.
• Collaborative, supportive team culture: Work alongside Total Rewards, Talent Acquisition, and People Service Delivery colleagues in an English-speaking team that values proactive communication, discretion, and flagging issues early.
• Modern tools and AI-forward work: Build hands-on experience with Workday, Google Workspace, Jira, and AI tools, and help deliver AI and Automation initiatives as part of the APAC Engagement Plan.
