Start: ASAP | Be part of a major HRIS transformation

Are you a seasoned Project Manager with deep experience in HR transformations? We're supporting a large-scale HRIS program and are seeking multiple Project Managers to join the team across different workstreams and contract durations. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a complex, high-impact initiative from mobilisation through to execution.

The program involves the go-to-market and MVP implementation of a new HR platform, with further phases planned to expand core HR capabilities (excluding payroll, which will follow in a separate project).

• Manage vendors to ensure on-time, on-budget, high-quality delivery

• Drive cutover planning, go-live management, and post-implementation support

• Monitor progress across project plans, schedules, scope, risks, and dependencies

• Engage with data, testing, and technical leads to ensure integrated delivery

• Provide clear reporting to senior stakeholders and escalate issues when needed

• Build strong relationships with business and IT stakeholders, SMEs, and vendors

• Lead change and transition activities to embed project outcomes in operational teams

• Support adoption, ensuring business and IT are set up for success post-go-live

• Align project execution to strategic goals and broader transformation outcomes

• Deliver within agreed budgets and cost constraints

• Ensure financial risks and variances are tracked and reported proactively

• Promote disciplined delivery aligned with the organisation's project methodology

• Foster a collaborative, high-performance project environment

• Communicate and influence across all levels of the organisation

• Champion a positive and inclusive team culture focused on ownership and outcomes
