On the systems side, you'll serve as the technical owner of our UKG environment designing workflows and business processes, managing configuration and security, overseeing integrations, and leading system updates. You'll also build the audit routines that keep our employee data accurate and reliable.

Key Responsibilities:

• UKG administration: Serve as the primary administrator for UKG including workflows, business processes, configuration, and system settings.

• System foundations & security: Build and maintain positions, job codes, and employee groups; administer security roles, permissions, and access reviews; own the new hire checklist and onboarding workflows.

• Scheduling: Configure and maintain UKG scheduling including schedule groups, shift templates, and rules and resolve discrepancies between scheduled, worked, and paid time.

• Data integrity & reporting: Design and run recurring employee and data audit checks, correct discrepancies at the source, and maintain reports and dashboards for HR, finance, and operations leadership.

• Integrations: Manage inbound and outbound integrations with payroll, benefits carriers, and third-party vendors; monitor transmissions, resolve errors, and coordinate with vendor support.

• Annual compensation cycle: Model budgets, build planning worksheets, configure and launch compensation cycles in UKG, support managers through completion, and generate compensation statements.
