Senior Lead, Oracle Fusion HCM Strategy and Advisory

Save the Children International has an exciting opportunity for a Senior Lead, Oracle Fusion HCM Strategy and Advisory to join our global team.

Team Purpose

The Transformation Development team drives Save the Children's organisational change agenda by delivering high-impact, global transformation initiatives that strengthen our ability to achieve more for children. The team works across a broad and evolving portfolio, spanning systems implementation, process reengineering, target operating model design, data, and artificial intelligence, adapting its focus in response to organisational priorities and emerging needs.

Members of the team are assigned to a specific project and are expected to dedicate their full effort to delivering it. However, as the portfolio evolves, whether a project concludes, priorities shift, or an urgent need arises elsewhere, team members may be redeployed to a different initiative. This flexibility is core to how the team operates, ensuring Save the Children can direct the right capability to the right priorities at the right time.

Role purpose

The Senior Lead, Oracle Fusion HCM Strategy and Advisory is Save the Children's internal consultant and trusted adviser on our Oracle Fusion HCM System implementation. The role exists to ensure that what we design and build is truly fit for purpose, meeting the real needs of our people and our organisation and that decisions are made in the interests of Save the Children, not simply shaped by the implementing partner's standard approaches. Combining deep Oracle Fusion HCM expertise with hands-on HR experience, the role holder brings an informed, independent voice to the project: one that understands both the product and the organisation well enough to advocate effectively and to challenge constructively.

Acting as an internal consultant, the role holder will work in close partnership with the implementing partner, business stakeholders, and internal technology teams, not to lead the technical delivery, but to ensure that what is being designed genuinely works for Save the Children as an INGO. This means developing a deep understanding, and partnering with the Solutions Architects in our IT function, of how our different applications and systems fit together, so they can identify where proposed solutions may create problems downstream, where better alternatives exist, and where the implementing partner’s default approach may not serve our specific context. They will translate this understanding into clear, evidence-based challenge and advice that helps the project make smarter decisions. This also helps us support Member implementations, where the level of implementing partner capacity will be smaller and where the Oracle expertise is inevitably going to be a gap where Members are new to this product.

This is a high-visibility, senior role that requires the confidence and credibility to engage HR and technology leaders across the movement, and to support the Project Leadership in pressure-testing proposed solutions for fitness for purpose. The role holder will help define what success looks like for Save the Children, support the realisation of benefits, and contribute to the establishment of a Centre of Excellence and shared support model. While the implementing partner leads delivery, this role is the organisation's critical friend throughout, progressively building in-house capability and helping Members adopt the global solution through feasibility, design, and implementation support.
