About the role
We're looking for an experienced HRIS Implementation Specialist to join the Healix People Team and play a key role in the implementation of Dayforce across the organisation.

This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role supporting the rollout of a new global HR system. You'll work closely with our People Systems, Benefits and Reward Specialist (the system owner and subject matter expert), the IT Project Manager, and external implementation partners to ensure the system is configured, tested and embedded successfully.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building, testing and implementing HR systems and supporting users through change — rather than owning long-term system strategy or reward design.

Essential experience and skills

• Proven experience supporting at least one HRIS implementation (Dayforce highly desirable)
• Practical, hands-on experience with: HRIS configuration support, Data migration and validation, UAT execution, Implementation documentation
• Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple workstreams
• Confidence working with HR data and structured templates (e.g. Excel)
• Clear communication skills and ability to explain system concepts to non-technical users
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, project-based environment

Qualifications

• Support User Acceptance Testing (UAT): create/execute test scripts, log defects, track resolution, validate fixes
• Support integration testing with payroll, benefits and other systems
• Work with implementation partners, tracking progress and escalating issues

Organisational readiness, training and change

• Support business readiness and adoption of Dayforce
• Partner with L&D to identify needs and support role-based training design
• Contribute to training plans, materials and delivery aligned to milestones
• Help coordinate training sessions and post-go-live support
• Support change communications with Internal Communications and Marketing

• Provide support during go-live and early adoption

Documentation and user support

• Develop and maintain system documentation (user guides, process docs, "how-to" materials)
• Support cutover and post-go-live stabilisation
• Act as a contact for Dayforce queries during implementation

Data integrity and compliance

• Support accurate HR data migration and consistency
• Ensure compliance with GDPR, data protection and internal policies (including ISO27001)

• Work with People Systems, IT Project Manager, People Team and external consultants
• Liaise with regional HR stakeholders to support local needs and adoption
