The Work
We run and develop one of the largest Oracle Cloud shared services in UK government. It holds the HR records of around 25,000 people working in the UK and overseas, and it runs the monthly UK payroll. This role encompasses both support and delivery. You will keep the live HCM service healthy, and design and build the changes that improve it.
Requirements
What You Will Actually Do
- Own second and third line HCM and payroll incidents through to fix, with particular care in the days around each payroll run and at tax year end
- Assess what each quarterly Oracle release changes in HCM: what to enable, what to test, and what users need to be warned about before it lands
- Implement the annual legislative updates that payroll depends on
- Design and build HCM configuration changes, from small fixes turned around in days to larger pieces delivered in sprints or structured work packages
- Sit with HR product owners and business leads, turn loose ideas into clear written requirements and impact assessments, and challenge scope when it needs challenging
- Understand the security roles that control who can see and do what in HCM, and work with our access specialists when changes touch them
- Build test evidence (regression is automated in Tosca) and capture configuration with ConfigSnapshot
- Hand your changes over properly: documentation, knowledge articles, and contribute to the knowledge management repository
What You Will Bring
Essential
- Deep Fusion HCM functional experience: Core HR, absence, payroll, time and labour
- Working knowledge of UK payroll rules and the calendar that comes with them
- Experience supporting a live Oracle Cloud service with real users
- The ability to gather requirements and write them up clearly
- A good understanding of Fusion security concepts: roles, data access, segregation of duties
- Working familiarity of OTBI or BI Publisher for HR reporting
Useful but Not Essential
- Oracle Guided Learning awareness
- Tosca, ServiceNow, ConfigSnapshot, Jira
- Public sector HR or payroll processes
- Agile delivery experience alongside more traditional methods
Practical Points — Read Before Applying
