UNDP’s Bureau for Management Services (BMS) has an established HR Service Centre in Copenhagen, Denmark – Global Shared Services Unit for Human Resources (GSSU - HR) – which provides human resources administrative services for UNDP, and also for a number of other UN system partners. UNDP uses a partly-customized PeopleSoft ERP system ‘ATLAS’, and provides services to clients in over 170 countries worldwide. GSSU-HR comprises of Benefits & Entitlements Services (BES) and Global Payroll Services (GPS).

The mandate of the Global Payroll Services (GPS) focuses on ensuring timely and accurate client support and global payroll services to HQ, regional centres and country offices for UNDP and partner agencies. GPS provides services to more than 40,000 people annually with average of 35,000 per monthly payroll.

One of GPS key functions is training of Human Resources Administrators and Global Payroll Administrators in payroll related functions. Over several years, GPS built various training content that had been shared with users in various units and GPS itself, and which served as a baseline for induction training in payroll. This content needs to be converted into a more technically usable format and aligned with GSSU Knowledge Management platform format. 

Under the overall leadership of the Global Payroll/Client Support Manager and day-to-day supervision of the Payroll Specialist, the Knowledge Management Analyst will support team activities that contribute to training/knowledge transfer and drawing ‘lessons learnt’ as well as consolidation of inputs for policy level discussions. In particular, incumbent will be required to:

• Ensure proper set up to allow for differentiated access based on the user role: either internal to GSSU or external to GSSU, i.e. knowledge management platform for use by Human resources and Global Payroll Administrators in country offices and HQ units globally. 
• Support GPS in documenting so far not captured knowledge and practices and putting those into required format;
• Liaise with GSSU KM committee to ensure uniformity of purpose on knowledge management activities. In addition, ensure synergies with these units on the new knowledge management system without compromising the GPS requirements;
