We are a global consultancy group, combining multi-disciplined expertise to deliver marine, engineering and technical services that drive safety and sustainability in maritime, oil & gas and renewable energy sectors.
With a legacy dating back to 1856 – to the world's first marine surveying organisation, The Salvage Association – Aqualis continues to evolve to provide the deepest pool of technical expertise across marine and engineering disciplines in more locations worldwide, to best support our clients and markets in keeping the world moving today, whilst managing the challenges of tomorrow.
The HRIS Administrator owns the technical administration, configuration and continuous improvement of Aqualis Group's HR information system (Sage People) and its integrations with payroll and other business systems.
Working closely with HR, Payroll, IT Security and the Data teams, you will keep the HRIS reliable, secure, compliant and fit for purpose. You will configure workflows, manage releases, maintain data integrity and GDPR compliance, and deliver system enhancements and projects that make HR processes more efficient and automated.
This is a systems role, not an HR-generalist role: it sits within the Business Systems team and acts as the technical product owner for the People-systems estate.
What will you be doing
- Administer and configure the HRIS objects, workflows, security roles, permissions, forms, and business rules.
- Own and maintain HRIS integrations with payroll, Microsoft Entra ID and other business systems, ensuring reliable, secure data flows.
- Manage HRIS releases, sandbox and change control, and test and deploy updates and enhancements.
- Safeguard the integrity, quality, security and GDPR compliance of HR data, and manage access controls and support audit requirements.
- Deliver system enhancements and projects from requirements through to configuration, testing, deployment and adoption.
- Automate manual HR administrative processes using workflow and integration tooling to reduce administrative overhead.
- Provide expert user support for the HRIS; maintain configuration and process documentation and deliver system training and guidance.
- Work closely with the Data team to provide clean, reliable HR data that enables effective reporting, insights and analytics through Power BI.
- Other duties as assigned.
What are we looking for
- Educated to bachelor's degree level in Information Systems, Computer Science, HR systems or a relevant subject.
- 5+ years worth of experience administering and configuring HRIS systems (Sage People, Workday, SuccessFactors or comparable).
- Experience of HRIS integrations and of managing HR data securely and in line with GDPR.
- Experience delivering HR-system configuration and enhancement projects.
- Experience of configuring HRIS workflows, security model, objects / fields and business rules.
- Understanding of data protection and GDPR legislation with respect to people data.
