People Operations Personnel

HR Operations & Employee Lifecycle

• Own onboarding and off boarding end-to-end process, systems setup, welcome experience, and exit processes.

• Manage and maintain Zoho People (HRIS) as the single source of truth: employee records, contracts, leave, and org data.

• Administer employee contracts, letters, and documentation (offer letters, confirmations, reassignments, exits) in line with Shekel's templates and standards.

• Own benefits administration, including HMO enrolment, changes, and vendor coordination.

Compliance & Policy Execution

• Monitor and maintain the P&C Compliance Index, closing gaps proactively rather than reactively.

• Ensure statutory compliance for Nigeria (pension, NSITF, ITF, PAYE, and related filings) in coordination with Finance.

• Apply and enforce existing P&C policies consistently (Leave, Performance, Underperformance Management, Recruitment & Selection) and flag policy gaps or risks to the Head of P&C.

Process Ownership & Continuous Improvement

• Own the People Operations calendar leave cycles, appraisal administration windows, onboarding pipelines ensuring nothing slips.

• Identify inefficiencies in existing people processes and design/implement improvements without needing to be asked.

• Support delivery of company-wide initiatives such as the Role-Fit & Capability Review, Quarterly Goals & KPIs Tracker administration, and Spot Bonus Framework logistics.

Recruitment & Talent Acquisition Support

• Own day-to-day recruitment coordination for Nigeria roles job postings, candidate pipeline management in Zoho Recruit, interview scheduling, and candidate communication.

• Support the Head of P&C on screening and shortlisting for junior to mid-level roles, using established scorecards and criteria.

• Coordinate reference checks, background checks, and pre-onboarding documentation for new hires.

• Maintain recruitment trackers and pipeline reporting, flagging bottlenecks or ageing requisitions proactively.

Employee Experience & Engagement

• Serve as a first point of contact for Sheyk queries on HR operations, policy, and benefits resolving issues with sound judgement.

• Support planning and logistics for the monthly All-Hands and other culture and engagement moments.

• Champion SHARP values in day-to-day people operations delivery.

Reporting, Data & Team Leadership

Requirements

• 3+ years of progressive HR/People Operations experience, including direct ownership of HR operations processes (not purely administrative support).

• Working knowledge of Nigerian labour law and statutory HR compliance requirements.

• Hands-on experience with an HRIS platform; Zoho People experience is a strong advantage.
