HR Systems Business Analyst - SAP SuccessFactors - Inside IR35 - Remote - 3 month contract with extension.

My client is looking for an experienced HR Systems Business Analyst to support the implementation of their own standalone instance of SuccessFactors, as they separate from a shared system currently in place with their parent company.

This will be a brand-new configuration, not a copy of the existing shared system, so the role requires an individual with both deep functional knowledge of SuccessFactors and strong business process expertise across HR, Finance, and Operations.

• Translate business requirements: Work with stakeholders to convert business needs into detailed system and configuration requirements for SuccessFactors.
• Issue resolution: Investigate and resolve complex system and payroll issues, ensuring timely and effective outcomes.
• Data analysis: Use data to identify trends, insights, and opportunities for process improvement.
• Stakeholder collaboration: Partner with HR, IT, Finance, and third-party providers to deliver efficient, compliant solutions that meet business goals.
• Project involvement: Contribute to project delivery, manage system upgrades and enhancements, and help shape the HR technology roadmap.
• Quality assurance: Lead or support validation and testing activities to ensure system configurations meet business and technical standards.
• Continuous improvement: Drive adoption and optimisation of SuccessFactors to enhance user experience and operational efficiency.

• Strong understanding and hands‑on experience with SAP SuccessFactors modules.
• Proven ability to translate business requirements into technical and configuration solutions.
• Experience with system configuration, data analysis, and system integrations.
• Excellent analytical, problem‑solving, and communication skills.
• Solid understanding of HR processes and the full employee lifecycle.
• Knowledge of Finance and Operations processes related to HR, IT, and the employee journey.
• Confident working in cross‑functional environments and liaising between business and technical teams.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a major HR systems transformation from the ground up, shaping how SuccessFactors is implemented and adopted across the business.
