Naomi Pelled

I am a solution driven HR Professional with 10 years HR, Reward and data analysis experience, gained at large technology, financial services, retail and mobile telecommunications sectors in the UK, at EMEA HQ, and at smaller 50 person Seattle Start-ups at global level, and managing HR remotely for global employees from South Sea Asia, Australia to the East and West Coasts of the USA. I am flexible to collaborate with subject matter experts in Finance, Engineering and Business Development/Sales Leadership, as well as C-Level executives and board members. 

I have designed total reward solutions to achieve business results and undertaken benefit offering development in international markets. I am highly analytical with the necessary skills and ability to understand and interpret numbers to drive business performance. I have lead numerous HR projects, such as writing HR handbooks from scratch, HRIS data clean-up, reward and recognition, C&B systems, spot bonuses, sales incentives, both continuous and seasonal schemes, long term incentive allocations, share allocation following IPO, job types, global recruitment, job levelling and rewriting of job descriptions across all countries, functions and levels of the organisational hierarchy.

I am used to operating in a very fast-paced and flexible environment. My greatest strengths are that I am a self starter, motivated by helping others thrive and grow. My other strengths are my ability to learn quickly, time management, being highly organised, creative thinking, attention to detail, strong analytical skills and ability to work cross-functionally, in a variety of teams and with a diverse range of clients, while keeping business goals and objectives at the forefront of all decisions.

Additionally, I am innovative and am effective at building relationships across the organisation, no matter what level, no matter where in the world they are based and what time of day or night I need to be in contact with them.

I have a high aptitude for IT systems, from working on HR system upgrades (PeopleSoft & SAP), implementing BambooHR for a 34+ person company, to creating WordPress websites. I am used to working on Google Suite and using Jira for keeping accountable of my workload and Confluence for recording HR handbooks and policy. I am also ofae with off-the-shelf cloud HR systems for employee feedback such as Primalogik software and bonus.ly for employee recognition, which I highly recommend for globally dispersed employees. As a fast learner, I believe that I can learn, implement and administer any system that you may require.

Working in a tech startup with so many intelligent, entrepreneurial, driven people is the type of workforce that inspires me to help succeed and flourish. I believe that HR philosophy needs to mirror the company vision and mission, and with my innovative approach, I believe I could develop your current practices to further align with this and grow further to being even more attractive to candidates than I see you already are.
