This large-scale transformation is modernising HR, Finance and Commercial services through policy, process, organisational, data and technology change, aligned with the Government Shared Services Strategy.

Joining the HRS workstream, you'll play a key role in delivering Oracle Fusion Payroll capabilities while supporting wider Oracle Fusion HCM delivery across a complex enterprise programme.

Payroll is the primary focus of this role, although you'll also support wider Oracle Fusion HCM delivery to ensure flexibility across the programme.

Working closely with senior HR stakeholders, programme leadership and delivery partners, you'll help shape functional solutions while balancing strategic thinking with hands-on implementation.

• Support Oracle Fusion HCM functional delivery across wider HR modules.
• Lead functional design, configuration, testing and implementation activities.
• Work collaboratively with HR stakeholders and delivery partners across a complex transformation programme.
• Apply Oracle Fusion implementation best practices throughout the project life cycle.
• Produce high-quality business documentation and implementation artefacts.
• Build strong stakeholder relationships across multiple teams and suppliers.

Essential Skills & Experience

• Proven experience delivering Oracle Fusion Cloud Payroll implementations.
• Good working knowledge of Oracle Fusion HCM modules.
• Minimum of two end-to-end Oracle Fusion Payroll and/or HCM implementation programmes within large organisations.
• Strong Payroll functional expertise.
• Strong understanding of HR business processes across transactional and strategic people functions.
• Experience delivering Oracle Fusion Cloud programmes within the public sector while working for a systems implementation partner.
• Hands-on experience with functional design, configuration, testing and deployment.
• Strong understanding of Oracle Fusion Cloud implementation methodology.
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
• Experience working within complex multi-supplier delivery environments.
• Degree qualified.
• Strong documentation skills with proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
• Ability to work independently within a remote team.

Security Clearance

• Active SC Clearance is highly desirable.
• Candidates who are eligible for SC Clearance and willing to complete the clearance process prior to deployment will also be considered.

If you're an experienced Oracle Fusion Payroll Functional Consultant looking to play a key role in one of the UK's most significant Oracle transformation programmes, we'd love to hear from you.
