What the role is
PSD has been onboarding Statutory Boards (agencies) across the Public Service onto a common cloud-based enterprise management system, known as Cumulus. Cumulus provides a unified solution for Human Capital Management (HCM), Payroll and Finance with the aim of improving business efficiency and organisation performance. Agencies, which were using different HRIS based on their own HR processes, will now use Workday, a SaaS, in Cumulus. The Cumulus team has onboarded 41 agencies, with more in the pipeline.

What you will be working on
[Specific Job Responsibilities]
Reporting to the Team Lead, you will aim to improve overall business efficiency by:
• Building good relationships and rapport with agencies as their Cumulus HCM business partner and work closely with agency leads and various stakeholders to transform user experience and improve user satisfaction.
• Designing and executing strategies to facilitate superuser adoption of system changes.
• Maintaining and improving Workday in Cumulus for users.
• Establish and maintain scalable processes that ensure best practices in HR.
• Identify opportunities for business process re-engineering (BPR) initiatives for productivity improvement, via transforming, streamlining and continuous improvement of work processes.
• Identifying new Workday requirements and communicating with users to understand additional requirements and needs.
• Collaborating with agency leads and IT teams to resolve Workday issues and improve user experience, and ensuring solutions are viable and consistent across all agencies.
• Creating Workday guidelines and manuals, as well as conducting training for users.
• Conducting regular Workday reviews and generating reports on efficiencies and improvement areas.
• Structuring and prioritising agencies’ Workday requirements and communicating plans with stakeholders for review, approval and implementation.
• Staying up to date with the latest HRIS technology and best practices.
