Description & Requirements

The energy of a newsroom, the pace of a trading floor, the buzz of a recent tech breakthrough; we work hard, and we work fast - while keeping up the quality and accuracy we're known for. It's what keeps us inventing and reinventing, all the time. Our culture is wide open, just like our spaces. We bring out the best in each other through collaboration. Through our countless volunteer projects, we also help network with the communities around us, too. You can do amazing work here. Work you couldn't do anywhere else.

What's In It For You?
  • A chance to continually improve the current infrastructure and streamline processes into the Human Resources Operations team
  • An opportunity to build a network to learn/expand knowledge of all HR disciplines, as well as underlying procedures and technologies
  • Exposure to all business areas, and interaction with senior-level colleagues, relevant systems and operational processes
You'll Need to Have:
