Job Details

Skills

  • PeopleSoft HCM Payroll
  • Absence Management
  • payroll operations

Summary

  • Strong experience with PeopleSoft HCM Payroll and Absence Management
  • Demonstrated success in product management, strategy, and planning roles
  • Proven ability to lead and influence cross-functional teams in complex organizations
  • Experience driving organizational change through clear communication and stakeholder alignment
  • Deep understanding of payroll operations, controls, and compliance (preferably in higher education or public sector environments)
  • Ability to operate at both strategic and execution levels

Important Candidate Profile Guidance

Many candidates have strong technical payroll or PeopleSoft backgrounds but lack the strategic product leadership experience required for this role.

This is not a purely functional or technical payroll role. While PeopleSoft and payroll expertise are required, the core of this position is leadership, strategy, and planning.

Successful candidates will show:

  • Experience setting direction, not just executing tasks
  • Clear examples of leading initiatives, influencing stakeholders, and driving outcomes
  • Strong cross-functional communication skills, particularly across HR, IT, and executive leadership
  • Evidence of owning product decisions and navigating governance-heavy environments

Candidates who have primarily worked in hands-on payroll processing or technical support roles without product leadership responsibility are unlikely to be a fit.

Ideal Background

  • Product Manager, Product Owner, or Program Leader supporting Payroll systems
  • Experience in UCPath, higher education, public sector, or large enterprise HR systems strongly preferred

Comfortable operating in a highly regulated, multi-stakeholder environment
