The University of Strathclyde is pleased to offer an
exciting opportunity to an experienced and dynamic IT lead to play a leading
role in the implementation of a modern HR payroll system.
The University is currently in the pre-implementation phase
of this major strategic project to design, procure and successfully implement
a new cloud hosted HR/ Payroll system. Delivery of this system will dramatically enhance the employee
lifecycle experience and transform management capabilities, through employee
and manager self-service functionality and the provision of real-time
reporting, as well as increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of processes
within HR, Payroll and Finance.
The HR Payroll
Replacement Project objectives are to implement a flexible, efficient,
responsive, robust and future-proofed Web enabled system that meets the needs
of our staff and other stakeholders.
As the Senior IT
lead, you will have a solid background and
track record of Business analysis and software development and experience in implementing integrations and
data migrations to package solutions. The role will require the management of
a small team of developers to work with the supplier and wider IT teams to
develop integrations, data migration and BI solutions to complement the
existing Management Information solutions. The role will also require production and
maintenance of technical and strategy documents, such as data migration
strategies, technical specifications and project plans.
The
successful candidate will need to create and maintain good working
relationships with stakeholders and demonstrate good communication skills. Strong
technical expertise along with technical project delivery experience is also
required as they will quickly adapt to new technologies and situations to
provide solutions that align with business objectives. They will be well
organised and a self-starter with very good communication skills and an
ability explain technical complexity to non-technical stakeholders to enable
effective decision making.
Interviews are
scheduled to take place in late August 2020, via Zoom. Candidates will be
invited to attend an initial interview, and then, following a further
shortlisting, selected candidates will be invited to attend a further panel
interview, at a later date.
Informal
enquiries about the post can be directed to Kathryn Hamilton, Project Manager (kathryn.hamilton@strath.ac.uk).
