What is an Employer of Record (EOR)?

An Employer of Record (EOR) is a service provider that allows companies to legally hire and work with employees in foreign countries without establishing their own legal entity in that country. This is made possible through a legal arrangement where the EOR establishes its own legal entity in the country and hires employees on behalf of the client company. This arrangement offers a viable solution for companies that wish to expand their global reach without investing in setting up a legal entity in every country where they operate.

About the role

As an HR Coordinator, you will serve as the first point of contact for client and employee inquiries, providing guidance and support on straightforward HR matters while ensuring timely and accurate responses. You will manage and triage inquiries through our ticketing system, handling cases within your expertise and escalating more complex matters to Senior HR Advisors.

This role is integral to maintaining service efficiency and ensuring adherence to key performance metrics such as response and resolution times. You’ll collaborate with team members across regions, applying a proactive and resourceful approach to deliver exceptional service to our clients and employees.

• First-Line HR Support: Address straightforward HR questions, including leave policies, performance management basics, system navigation, and updating employee information.
• Case Escalation: Provide initial responses to more complex cases (e.g., terminations, claims), gathering necessary details before assigning them to Senior HR Advisors for further action.
• Regional Expertise: Research and provide accurate answers for inquiries across multiple countries within the region, leveraging provided resources and tools.
• Metrics Accountability: Ensure prompt first responses and efficient case resolution to meet team performance targets.
• Cross-Team Collaboration: Work closely with Senior HR Advisors, Regional Managers, and other internal teams to address client and employee needs comprehensively.
• Process Optimization: Identify opportunities to improve operational workflows and ensure consistency in responses through standardized templates and resources.

What you will need

• 2+ years of experience in an HR support role within a fast-paced, client-facing environment.
