HR Systems Analyst | London (Hybrid) £55,000

An international legal firm looking for an HR Systems Analyst to become the go-to expert for their HRIS. If a clean data set or a well-built workflow makes your day, read on.

You’ll join a friendly HR Operations, MI & Systems team, hybrid (roughly 60/40 office/remote) from London.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be the go-to person for our SAP SuccessFactors platform:

• Key point of contact for HR system queries and issues across Employee Central, Performance & Goal Management, Reporting, Employee Central Payroll, Onboarding, Succession and Development.
• Owning position management end-to-end, plus regular system tasks - imports, bulk updates, config changes, permissions, onboarding documents.
• Planning and rolling out platform enhancements.
• Supporting data cleanses and reconciliations alongside our HR Reporting Analyst.
• Running the time off/absence module, including period-end processing and absence buy/sell.
• Applying EC Payroll and GUI knowledge to support payroll.
• Partnering with IT, Finance and our AMS vendor on integrations and support tickets.
• Supporting platform governance - release management, testing, production moves - and training colleagues on SuccessFactors.

Must-haves:

• Hands-on SAP/SuccessFactors experience across modules including EC, ECP (including GUI), Onboarding, Comp, PMGM, Succession & Development.
• A track record of leading medium-to-high complexity systems enhancements or module rollouts, comfortable thinking through global design and end-to-end implementation impacts.
• Confident intermediate Excel skills (VLOOKUPs, pivot tables, IF formulas).

Nice-to-haves:

• SAP SuccessFactors (SFX) System Admin Accreditation.
• Curiosity about generative or agentic AI within SuccessFactors - if you’ve experimented with it, even better.
• A working understanding of data protection regulations such as GDPR.

You’ll thrive here if you’re someone who:

• Explains complex, technical things in a way that actually makes sense to non-technical people.
• Builds genuine trust with stakeholders and turns their (sometimes vague!) requirements into real system solutions.
• Loves digging into data and turning it into recommendations people can act on.
• Stays calm and accurate when priorities shift or deadlines tighten.
