Cape Town, South Africa Xceptor Full time

**ABOUT XCEPTOR**:
Data is at the heart of everything we do: Xceptor has been designed around data manipulation in its broadest sense. We source data from wherever it flows. We curate, normalise, validate, repair, and enrich that data so it reaches its destination in a reliable and consistent format. Data coming out of Xceptor is data our clients can trust.

We are recognised as an expert in the Financial Services vertical, which strongly aligns with Business Users in Middle and Back-Office teams. We enable these users to solve their data challenges by themselves, rather than through a technology-led project.

**Our Vision** is to be the leading platform for automating data flows.

**Our Mission** is to empower business users within Financial Institutions to build automated processes that deliver trusted data.

**Our Values** were created by our people, and speak to both who we are, and who we aspire to be. Ambition is in our DNA, and we embrace any opportunities ahead. Our curiosity and desire to grow drives us to learn from our customers and those around us. Our people are empowered, accountable, and deliver. We pull together, step up and focus on outcomes. The brilliance of our people makes a positive difference.

**BUSINESS AREA AND TEAM**:
The Xceptor People and Culture (P&C) function consists of global HR and Talent Acquisition professionals focused on creating a world-class working environment and partnering with the business to design and implement strategies to attract, engage, develop, and retain our employees. We are a P&C team of 10, an employee population of c.250, with offices in Cape Town, UK, Singapore, and the US.

A critical part of the P&C function is our client-facing HR Operations Team, based in Cape Town, which is focused on providing and delivering an efficient, effective, consistent, and customer-friendly HR Operations service to all our employees, across all our locations, throughout the employee lifecycle.

To support the organization's continued growth and the development of the function, we have a new opportunity for an HR Advisor, based in Cape Town, or London, to bring together our HR Operations and HR Business Partnering Teams. This role will ensure we have both an escalation point for complex queries from the HR Operations Team and day-to-day transactional support for the HR Business Partners.

To contribute to the overall success of the People Agenda, in delivering a proactive and customer-focused HR service, ensuring effective support, guidance, and advice, to managers and employees, across a wide variety of HR matters, including employee relations, policy and process, recruitment, and the delivery of key projects. Your role will be primarily operational and provide support across all business areas and global locations.

**KEY RESPONSIBILITIES**:

- Key HR contact for Xceptor Academy for Learning & Development, including enhancing the HR offering and the creation of a more effective learning platform.
- Partner with the HR Operations Lead, in relation to Policy and Procedure improvement
- Ensure continuous review, archiving of legacy documents, HR updates, and maintenance, ensuring all policies and procedures are fit for purpose, in line with relevant legislation and communicated effectively.
