Want to be part of one of the largest Oracle Cloud transformations in the region?

We're looking for an Oracle Cloud Payroll Specialist to help drive the ongoing development, optimisation and support of our Payroll and HCM systems while remaining connected to the operational reality of payroll delivery.

This is a unique opportunity for someone who enjoys both project work and hands-on payroll operations, giving you exposure to system configuration, testing, process improvement and transformation activities as well as payroll delivery.

The role

Working across Payroll, HR, Finance and IT, you'll help ensure our Oracle Cloud Payroll solution delivers an efficient, compliant and colleague-focused service.

You'll be involved in:

  • Supporting Oracle Cloud Payroll configuration and administration.
  • Maintaining payroll elements, balances, formulas and system definitions.
  • Identifying, troubleshooting and resolving payroll system issues.
  • Supporting testing, upgrades and system releases.
  • Assisting with data migration, validation and reconciliation activities.
  • Driving process automation and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Supporting monthly payroll processing and payroll compliance activities.
  • Working with internal stakeholders and external vendors to enhance payroll capability.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
