IT Services are delighted to offer an opportunity for an enthusiastic, engaged, and technically qualified individual to join our dynamic Enterprise Applications team as an Enterprise Applications Specialist focusing on our HR and Payroll platforms. This role is well suited to a forward-thinking individual with skills and experience in the management and support of a HR platform, who is seeking to progress their career in a busy and innovative workplace at one of the UK’s leading universities.

It is an exciting time for the University, IT Services, and Human Resources, with digital enhancement playing a major part in the shaping of University’s future.

You will be located in and work closely with colleagues in the University’s IT Services, leading and collaborating with them on the delivery of critical digital enhancement projects. The HR systems are integrated with other University systems; you must maintain a broad overview of the HR systems architecture and facilitate integrations with other University systems. You will act as technical lead for the routine upgrades of HR systems, liaising closely with the data owner (Staff Records Data Manager, HR) and other key stakeholders.
