Make sure local statutory requirements are met correctly and on time, such as CNSS, AMO and income tax (IR) declarations in Morocco, and collective agreement, DSN and health and welfare scheme (mutuelle, prévoyance) requirements in France. Review payroll outputs against inputs and resolve discrepancies with payroll providers, accountants, Finance and employees.\nBenefits adminstration: Administer local employee benefits across the countries in scope, including enrolments, changes and leavers.

Support HRBPs with the documentation, payroll inputs, statutory steps and operational follow-through for employee relations and termination cases, without independently owning sensitive employee relations decisions.\nEmployee, manager and HRBP support: Act as the first point of contact for operational HR questions in the countries in scope and as the operational go-to person for the relevant HRBPs. Provide accurate information, documentation and practical support, resolve requests independently and escalate complex employee relations, policy or legal matters to the HR Operations Lead or HRBP.\nLocal compliance and providers: Track statutory deadlines and changes in local legislation, and work with payroll providers, accountants, external advisers and authorities where needed.\nProcess documentation and improvement: Understand and document end-to-end country processes, including responsibilities, deadlines, inputs, outputs, controls, systems and hand-offs. Identify unnecessary manual work, duplication, gaps and recurring errors, propose practical improvements and support the testing and adoption of improved workflows, tools and automation.\nMaintain and use operational calendars, checklists and controls, complete required reconciliations and proactively follow up on missing or inconsistent information.\n\nKEY OUTCOMES - WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE\nPayroll inputs for all countries in scope are accurate, complete and submitted on time, with discrepancies resolved quickly.\nBenefit enrolments, changes and leavers are processed accurately and on time, with employee and provider queries followed through to resolution.\nStatutory declarations and local deadlines are met without penalties or last-minute escalation.\nHRBPs receive timely and dependable operational support, including accurate country information, documentation and follow-through.\nRecurring problems and inefficient manual steps are identified and addressed with the HR Operations Lead rather than repeatedly worked around.\nImproved processes and tools are adopted consistently and work effectively in day-to-day operations.\nEmployees and managers receive clear, timely answers, in English and French.\nEmployee records and F&O data are complete, current and audit-ready.\nCountry procedures are documented and backup is possible for critical activities.\nREQUIREMENTS\nAt least four years of hands-on HR Operations or payroll experience, including substantial responsibility for independently coordinating payroll and employment administration across multiple countries.\nProven practical experience applying Moroccan and French payroll and employment requirements, with strong knowledge in at least one of these countries and the ability to become independently operational in the other.\nProven hands-on experience with payroll and employment administration in Morocco and/or France\nGood working knowledge of employment legislation and statutory requirements across several countries, and the ability to apply it in practice\nExperience working with external payroll providers, accountants and advisers\nFluent French and very good English, written and spoken\nAdvanced Excel skills for checking and reconciling payroll and HR data\nExperience with HR systems\nAbility to work independently, prioritise and make decisions within agreed boundaries\nHigh attention to detail and discretion with confidential data\nAbility to understand end-to-end processes, recognise dependencies and controls, and identify practical opportunities to simplify, standardise or automate operational work.\nInternational experience, preferably related to Morocco, France or the UK\nExperience with Moroccan online declaration platforms (e.g. Damancom for CNSS, SIMPL for tax)\nWHO IS SA.GLOBAL\nsa.global, a global Microsoft partner, specializes in delivering AI-powered, cloud-based solutions tailored for service-centric organizations such as architecture and engineering, legal, consulting, software services, accounting, and homebuilding.
