Talent Coordinator
Contract duration: 6 months
Location: Reading (3 days onsite, 2 days WFH)
The Opportunity
This is a fixed-term contract role focused on the EMEA region, where you'll help manage the employment contract lifecycle for approximately +1,000 employees being onboarded across multiple legal entities in the region.
What You'll Do
- Manage the end-to-end preparation, issuance, and tracking of employment contracts and contract addendums for employees transferring across multiple EMEA legal entities, in line with local labor law and works council/employee consultation requirements
- Deliver this work in structured phases, aligned to the broader integration timeline, keeping each phase on track and flagging risks to deadlines early
- Partner closely with key stakeholders in each market to align on entity-specific requirements, employee queries, and exceptions
- Facilitate where needed, messaging for impacted employees at each phase of the integration — contract changes, onboarding steps, and key dates
- Coordinate across Legal, Payroll, Total Rewards, and IT/Workplace teams to pull the right stakeholders together at the right time, resolving blockers and keeping the integration moving
- Build and maintain a strong cadance on high volume contract issuance, completion, and outstanding actions by entity and phase, providing regular status updates to integration leadership.
- Act as a point of contact for employees and managers with questions about their contract, transfer, or onboarding status and connecting dots with ERC to support the employee lifecycle as they onboard.
- Identify process inefficiencies across the high-volume contract workflow and recommend improvements or automation opportunities
- Maintain accurate, audit-ready records across all entities in line with data privacy requirements (GDPR and local equivalents)
Highly desired:
- Proven experience supporting M&A integration, TUPE/employee transfer, or large-scale HR contract/onboarding processes across multiple countries
- Solid understanding of employment contracts and addendums across multiple EMEA jurisdictions; awareness of where local legal/works council input is required
- Fluency in English required; additional European languages a strong plus given the multi-country scope
- Prior experience in a technology company M&A/integration context is a plus
