Wrike is the most powerful work management platform. Built for teams and organizations looking to collaborate, create, and exceed every day, Wrike brings everyone and all work into a single place to remove complexity, increase productivity, and free people up to focus on their most purposeful work.

Our vision: A world where everyone is free to focus on their most purposeful work, together.

About the Role:

As Wrike scales globally, our People systems must operate as true infrastructure — not just tools. We’re hiring a Team Lead, People Systems & Analytics, to own the strategy, governance, and technical execution of Wrike’s global People Systems ecosystem.

UKG is our core HRIS, and you will own its configuration and optimization, ensuring it works seamlessly across the broader People ecosystem throughout the full employee lifecycle. Your mandate is simple: make our systems connected, reliable, automated, and governed across the full employee lifecycle.

You will lead one HR Systems & Analytics Analyst while staying hands-on in integrations, workflow design, automation, reporting, and system improvements. You’ll balance long-term modernization with day-to-day execution.

This role is for someone who thinks like a systems product owner, designs with architectural rigor, and executes like an operator.

Your Impact:

You will transform our People systems into a unified, scalable ecosystem that supports every stage of the employee lifecycle. You’ll ensure UKG and surrounding platforms operate cohesively through clean integrations, structured governance, and intelligent automation.

You’ll simplify complex workflows, strengthen data integrity, and improve reporting reliability for HR, Finance, and leadership. At the same time, you’ll elevate how we manage systems — introducing stronger documentation discipline, modern analytics practices, and practical AI where it drives real value.
