• Reporting Standardisation: Standardise regular People & Talent KPI reports, integrate engagement survey data into the dashboard suite, and provide training and documentation so the team can maintain everything post-contract.

Project 3: HR System Implementation (Harriet HR)

• System Implementation Support: Contribute to scoping and planning the rollout of Harriet HR, Accurx's new AI-powered HR system, supporting integration with existing systems and embedding data integrity and GDPR compliance throughout.
