Background

• 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, for other UN system partners. UNDP uses a partly customized PeopleSoft ERP system ‘ATLAS’ and provides services to clients in 177 countries worldwide. GSSU-HR comprises of Global Payroll Services (GPS) and Benefits & Entitlements Services (BES).
• 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. We are seeking a Knowledge Management Intern who will be asked to support the Unit with ad hoc client support, data analysis and global communications to facilitate this mandate.
• One of GPS key functions is training of Human Resources Administrators and Global Payroll Administrators in ERP HCM and payroll related functions. Over several years, GPS built various training content that had been shared with users in various units around the globe, and which serves as a baseline for induction training in payroll. It is expected that the Intern will assist with maintaining, customising and improving upon the current platform and content.
• Under the overall leadership of the Global Payroll/Client Support Manager and day-to-day supervision of the Payroll Analyst, the Knowledge Management Intern will support team activities that contribute to training/knowledge transfer and drawing ‘lessons learnt’ as well as consolidation of inputs for policy level discussions.

Duties and Responsibilities

• Review the existing knowledge management tools, system and content to identify the existing gaps
• Maintain the existing content into the format used by GSSU KM team

With this responsibility, the Knowledge Management Intern should focus on facilitating the ease of use of the Knowledge Management Platform

• Support GPS in documenting so far not captured knowledge and practices and putting those into required format
• Liaise with GSSU to ensure uniformity of purpose on knowledge management activities. In addition, ensure synergies with the GSSU units on the new knowledge management system without compromising the GPS requirements

• Data management and analysis:
• Client reporting, KPIs and Case reporting and tracking (PowerBI)
• Design, conduct and analyse results from Client Satisfaction Surveys and other surveys related to GSSU
