Senior Lead, Oracle Fusion HCM Solutions
Principal Accountabilities
- Partner with the Product Owner — who owns the roadmap on behalf of the business — to lead the delivery of Fusion HCM enhancements on the live solution, prioritising changes that deliver organisational value and ensuring configuration, integration, and business process designs are fit for purpose
- Work closely with the Product Owner to shape and continuously evolve the future roadmap of Fusion HCM enhancements, including interfaces to other key systems, advising on scalability, performance, and a reduction in complexity across the estate
- Partner with the FMS team on cross-system interdependencies — validating that any changes to HCM proposed to accommodate the finance solution are properly impact-assessed and do not create unnecessary inefficiencies on the HR and people side
- Bring deep Oracle Fusion product expertise together with hands-on HR and people experience — including emerging capabilities and best practice — translating this for colleagues and upskilling the team to build durable internal capability
- Review and advise on architecture, configuration, and integrations to drive efficiency and productivity through simplicity, supporting the technical integrity and long-term sustainability of the solution
- Establish a Centre of Excellence — bringing together the teams already working with the live solution, including HR and the internal IT development team — and own its longer-term roadmap, applying industry experience and best practice to its design and operation
- Define success metrics for the roadmap and ensure consistent realisation of benefits, maintaining focus on improving the people and HR user experience and increasing organisational impact
- Work closely with available change resource, to plan for accelerated adoption and successful, sustainable change across the movement
- Provide strategic guidance on architecture, governance, support, and administration, ensuring business and IT alignment including across Member operations
- Draw on Oracle product knowledge and relationships, working alongside internal IT teams and third party vendors to advise on a fit-for-purpose solution
- Support Members as they adopt and optimise the global solution — guiding them through local feasibility assessments, configuration, and roll-out — while building close relationships with HR, People and Member colleagues to enable adoption, buy-in, and shared capability
Experience and Skills
Essential
- Expert, hands-on knowledge of the Oracle Fusion HCM product, including configuration and emerging Fusion capabilities, gained from implementing and running Oracle within an HR or people function
- An HR or people background — having worked in an HR function — combined with significant experience implementing and developing Oracle Fusion HCM as part of people or HR transformation within complex, global organisations
- Strong experience leading on solution design, integrations, and enhancement roadmaps for a live platform, including interfaces between a core HR/people platform and other key enterprise systems
- Proven ability to define and drive realisation of benefits and success metrics, ensuring scalability, performance, and reduced complexity across the estate
- Experience establishing and running a Centre of Excellence or in-house support capability for a live enterprise solution, working alongside internal teams and third party software vendors to assure quality and sustain the platform
- Experience within global, matrix organisations, with a proven ability to work effectively across functions and teams — including managing cross-system interdependencies between adjacent platforms — and with people from different cultures
- Highly developed interpersonal skills including influencing, negotiation, and coaching, with the ability to support senior stakeholders through change across a global organisation
- Excellent communication skills (written and oral English), with the ability to communicate and present to all levels of the organisation, and a commitment to Save the Children values
Desirable
- Experience leading or supporting transformation across multiple business units or countries, including enabling local teams through feasibility, design, and implementation
- Non-profit sector knowledge/experience (especially international development)
- Second language – French, Spanish or Arabic
