I am entering the company to replace someone on maternity leave for a year.
I am joining the company to replace someone who is on maternity leave for a year.
例文一:

産休で休む人の代わりに一年間だけそこで働く。
例文二:
I will work there for just one year in place of someone who is on maternity leave.

・"to replace"も"in place of"も「代わりに」を意味しますが、"to replace"は一時的ではなさそうです。"in place of"は一時的かどうか不明です。
・"entering the company"と"joining the company"はほぼ同じですが、"joining"は正社員として入る印象すると思います。
・"someone"の代わりに"somebody"も言えます。"someone on maternity leave"は"someone who is on maternity leave"の略です。
