The role provides first-line support to employees and managers while ensuring accurate, timely and legally compliant HR administration and end-to-end payroll execution.

The role reports directly to the Managing Director Mexico and works in close partnership with the Regional HRBP LAM through a dotted-line reporting relationship. 

This is a role for someone who is comfortable working autonomously, solving problems and building trusted relationships across AT-PAC Mexico.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage Mexico payroll end to end, including incidences, attendance, leave, variable compensation, deductions, benefits, employee changes, terminations, and final settlements. Ensuring accurate, timely and compliant payroll processing.

• Lead HR process-improvement and digitalization initiatives to strengthen efficiency, data quality, and employee experience.

• Collaborate with the HR teams in Chile and Peru to standardize shared procedures and build reciprocal backup coverage for key HR and payroll activities.

You are a hands-on HR professional who enjoys being close to the business and takes pride in getting the operational details right. You do not wait for others to solve problems. You investigate, propose a solution, take ownership, and involve the right people when a decision requires escalation.
