About the role
We're hiring a Product Owner to own the SAP SuccessFactors platform for a large Australian retail organisation, with deep Employee Central Payroll (ECP) expertise at the centre of the role. You'll set the product direction, work directly with the People & Culture team, and turn business needs into a delivered, adopted product. This is a hands-on ownership role, not a coordination role.

Key Responsibilities

What you'll do
• Own and maintain the SuccessFactors product roadmap, with Employee Central Payroll as the priority, aligned to business strategy and HR transformation goals.

• Partner with the People & Culture team to identify, validate and prioritise HR and payroll system requirements.
• Engage business stakeholders and external vendors to gather insights, align priorities and keep delivery on track.
• Translate monthly business needs into clear, actionable requirements and build and manage the product backlog with the technology team.
• Prioritise features and enhancements on business value, feasibility and strategic fit.
• Facilitate workshops and discovery sessions to define future-state payroll and HR processes and system capabilities.
• Develop business cases to secure internal approval and funding for new initiatives and enhancements.
• Monitor delivery, explicit blockers, and ensure features, fixes and payroll changes (including legislative and compliance updates) release on time.




• Support change management and adoption so the platform transitions cleanly into BAU. What you'll bring (must-have)
• Proven Product Owner experience on SAP SuccessFactors in a large, complex organisation.
• Deep, hands-on Employee Central Payroll (ECP) expertise — configuration understanding, payroll processing cycles, and payroll compliance.
• Strong grasp of Australian payroll (awards, superannuation, PAYG, Single Touch Payroll and related legislative requirements).

• Strong stakeholder management across HR/P&C;, technology and external vendors. Nice to have
