Director – HR Transformation (AI & Automation)

About the Role
We are looking for an experienced Director / Senior Transformation Lead to lead a major HR transformation focused on AI, automation, HR technology and operating model redesign. This is a strategic transformation leadership role rather than a hands-on AI engineering position. You will own the transformation strategy, roadmap, delivery governance and prioritisation, working closely with senior HR, HRIT, Technology, Data, Risk and business stakeholders. Strong Oracle HCM / Oracle Fusion HCM experience is highly desirable.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end HR transformation across people, process, technology and operating model.
- Define and own the transformation strategy, roadmap, priorities and delivery plan.
- Coordinate multiple HR transformation initiatives and manage dependencies across programmes.
- Drive prioritisation, investment decisions, risks, issues, dependencies, budgets and trade-offs.
- Partner with senior HR leadership to identify and deliver high-value transformation opportunities.
- Identify opportunities for AI, GenAI, automation and intelligent HR services.
- Ensure HR technology strategy and transformation roadmap are aligned with Oracle HCM / Oracle Fusion HCM.
- Translate HR and business requirements into practical transformation initiatives and technology solutions.
- Establish strong governance across HR, HRIT, Technology, Data, Legal, Risk and Information Security.
- Lead change, adoption and stakeholder engagement to ensure transformation benefits are realised.
- Track benefits, adoption, ROI and measurable business outcomes.
- Provide clear executive-level reporting, recommendations and decision support.
