About the role

As Product Owner – SuccessFactors (our HRIS system), you will play a key role in shaping how our people experience work every day.

Working as part of the Employee Experience Agile Release Train, you’ll lead the direction and evolution of our core people platform, ensuring it delivers real value for our employees, leaders and People & Culture teams. From large-scale improvements to smaller enhancements and upgrades, you’ll prioritise and guide work that makes every day processes simpler, smarter and more intuitive for our workforce.

You’ll own and evolve the product roadmap, balancing business priorities, user needs and technology opportunities to ensure the platform continues to improve the way our people work. Partnering closely with stakeholders across ICT, People & Culture and the broader business - as well as our external vendors - you’ll champion a value-driven approach to delivery that focuses on practical outcomes and measurable improvements.

Leading a team (2) of technical and functional specialists, you’ll bring people together around a shared vision, creating clarity, momentum and strong collaboration. Your work will directly contribute to improving employee experience and making it easier for our people to get what they need, when they need it.

• Solid experience in product ownership of HRIS systems; preferably with SAP Successfactors (working with modules such as Employee Central, Recruitment, Onboarding, Performance & Goals, LMS)
• Demonstrable exposure to and experience applying human centred design approaches to product delivery using an Agile delivery model
• Understanding of SAFe Agile methodology
• Demonstrated ability to problem solve and work collaboratively and with agility across multiple stakeholder groups and vendors
• Exposure to the HR/People & Culture landscape, with the ability to interpret and apply regulatory requirements (e.g., FairWork) to system design and configuration is preferable yet not essential
