Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end project delivery for the HRIS migration, from discovery and planning through go-live and hypercare
- Build and maintain a master project plan with milestones, owners, dependencies, and a locked go-live target
- Lead data migration planning — including field mapping, data cleansing, validation checkpoints, and reconciliation between legacy and target systems
- Coordinate across the implementation vendor, internal IT, HR, and Payroll to keep workstreams in sync and accountability clear
- Drive configuration and testing across core modules: payroll, benefits, onboarding, time & attendance, and integrations
- Develop a detailed cutover plan including parallel run strategy, rollback contingency, and go/no-go criteria
- Identify risks, dependencies, and blockers early, then help teams navigate decisions with clarity and urgency
- Lead change management and training efforts so HR teams and employees are ready — not just technically enabled — from day one
- Create communication plans that keep stakeholders informed and engaged at every stage
- Build repeatable project management practices and documentation that outlast the implementation
Skills

- Hands-on experience with enterprise HRIS platforms — functional knowledge of modules, data structures, and integration patterns
- Experience managing complex, cross-functional implementations with multiple workstreams, vendors, and competing priorities
- Strong data migration experience: mapping, cleansing, validation, and reconciliation between legacy and target systems
- Solid understanding of People Operations programs and the employee lifecycle — payroll, benefits, onboarding, and compliance
- Ability to translate between technical and functional teams — you speak both HR and IT
- Clear, direct communication skills with the ability to escalate risks honestly and keep leadership aligned without surprises
- Experience supporting change management and driving adoption of new systems and processes
- Exposure to compensation, recruiting, or similar People tools is a plus, but not required
