Job Description:

We are seeking a seasoned PeopleSoft HCM consultant with deep expertise in Absence Management (AM) and Time & Labor (T&L) to lead end‑to‑end implementations, upgrades (9.1 → 9.2), complex configuration, and AM/TL/Payroll integration. The ideal candidate combines strong functional leadership with hands‑on configuration and the ability to partner with technical teams to deliver scalable, compliant, and user‑friendly solutions across unionized and non‑union employee populations.

• Configure Absence Management at scale (Entitlements, Takes, Formulas, Arrays, Brackets, Triggers, Forecasting), including table‑driven complex leave plans (sick, vacation, personal, comp time, floaters, lieu banks).
• Design and configure Time & Labor rules, timesheet customizations, and TL/AM/Payroll integration touchpoints.
• Own testing strategy and execution (configuration unit test, SIT, UAT, parallel payroll), including PIN and non‑rule package migrations.
• Develop and maintain operational artifacts: processing calendars, biweekly/year‑end procedures, Go‑Live runbooks, and AM/TL FAQs.
• Lead CRP/JAD workshops with business SMEs, HR operations, unions, payroll, and IT; drive sign‑offs.
• Partner with technical teams on customizations (Application Engine, SQR, PeopleCode, XML Publisher/nVision) and data conversion validation.
• Troubleshoot production issues across configuration, data, security, and integrations; provide post‑go‑live support and incremental enhancements.
• Create and deliver end‑user and super‑user training and knowledge transfer.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years PeopleSoft HCM with 7+ years focused on Absence Management and Time & Labor.
• Demonstrated success on PeopleSoft 9.2 implementations/upgrades (including 9.1 → 9.2).
• Proven experience configuring 1,000+ AM elements and designing unionized leave plans using table/bracket‑driven logic.
• Hands‑on AM/TL/Payroll integration design and issue resolution.
• Strong documentation skills (fit–gap, config specs, test scripts, cutover/go‑live).
• Excellent stakeholder facilitation and communication; comfortable leading CRP and training sessions.
