While SAP SuccessFactors is the primary HRIS, this role spans the full HR technology ecosystem — including automation tools, AI‑enabled solutions, integration platforms, and adjacent HR applications. You will be responsible for technical implementation and continuous optimisation of these systems, ensuring reliable operations while driving meaningful improvements in employee experience, process efficiency, automation, and data quality. This is a delivery‑focused role for someone who enjoys solving complex technical problems and enabling HR teams through modern technology.

  • Configure, optimise, and enhance core HR platforms, modules, and integrations to meet evolving business needs. 
  • Design, build, and troubleshoot complex interfaces between SuccessFactors and key enterprise systems such as payroll, finance, and identity management. 
  • Develop and maintain Python‑based automation and AI solutions that streamline HR operations and elevate user experience. 
  • Translate HR and business requirements into scalable, future‑proof technical solutions that drive operational efficiency and strategic value. 
  • Oversee change management, release cycles, and deployment activities across the HR technology ecosystem. 
  • Ensure rigorous compliance with security, privacy, and regulatory frameworks including GDPR, audit requirements, and data retention policies. 
  • Monitor system performance and proactively resolve issues, ensuring reliability, resilience, and continuous improvement. 
  • Support internal teams with data uploads, audit responses, budgeting queries, vendor coordination, licence management, and adherence to risk policies. 
  • Lead platform upgrades, patches, and technical enhancement programmes to maintain system currency and performance. 
  • Maintain high‑quality technical documentation and best‑practice standards across all HR technology processes. 
  • Support data migration activities and champion data quality improvements across HR systems. 
  • Safeguard data integrity across all HR platforms, integrations, and workflows. 

 

 

Your skills:

 

  • 7+ years of hands‑on SAP SuccessFactors technical experience (configuration, integrations, extensions) 
  • 2+ years of team or technical leadership/management experience 
  • Strong experience with integration technologies (SAP CPI, API Management, REST APIs, event‑driven integrations) 
  • Ability to build and maintain Python applications including automation or AI‑driven workflows 
  • Solid understanding of HR processes (Core HR, Talent, Learning, Compensation, Recruiting) and how they translate into technical design 
  • Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills with a practical, hands‑on mindset 
  • Able to work independently while collaborating effectively with cross‑functional teams 
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for engaging both technical and business stakeholders 
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities 
  • Self‑driven, proactive, and committed to delivering high‑quality outcomes 
  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, or related field 
  • Workday experience is a plus 

 

What success looks like

  • A clearly prioritised, transparent, and well-governed Technology portfolio.
  • Predictable delivery outcomes with early visibility of risks and issues.
  • Strong executive confidence in Technology’s ability to deliver strategic change.
  • Clear linkage between investment, capacity, and business outcomes.
