HR Project Manager - System Implementations (Beamery, Workday) | Edinburgh, UK | Hybrid

Alexander Mann Solutions (Contingent) • Edinburgh, Scotland, GB • 1d ago

We are AMS. We are a global total workforce solutions firm; we enable organisations to thrive in an age of constant change by building, re-shaping, and optimising workforces. Our Contingent Workforce Solutions (CWS) is one of our service offerings; we act as an extension of our clients' recruitment team and provide professional interim and temporary resources.

Our client, a major UK retail bank, provides every day banking services to over 17 million retail customers. The banks expertise and services span across Business Services, Corporate banking, Wealth Management, Group Functions, Retail and Investment Banking.

On behalf of this organisation, AMS are looking for a HR Project Manager for a contracting position initially running to the end of 2025 (multi-year programme with scope for extension). The team work on a remote-first basis with occasional requirement to travel the Edinburgh office.

Purpose of the Role:

This role sits within the Talent Attraction and Employer Brand team of a major UK Retail Bank, supporting the delivery of a large-scale HR technology transformation programme.

The business is implementing Beamery - a next-generation CRM and talent platform - which will sit in front of Workday. This will help to shape a more skills-based hiring strategy and overhaul how talent is identified, engaged, and managed by creating a skills-based taxonomy for matching candidate competencies to roles.

The programme touches on multiple workstreams (CRM, skills strategy, data integration, AI, governance) and the Project Manager will sit across all areas, ensuring smooth delivery and strong cross-functional collaboration between tech, HR, data, and policy teams.

They do not require a seasoned technologist for this role, nor do they require prior financial services experience; general competence in project management alongside prior HR system implementations experience would be fantastic.

Responsibilities of the role:
•

Lead project planning, status tracking, and issue/risk escalation across multiple workstreams •

Drive weekly core programme meetings and facilitate agenda setting, action tracking, and follow-up •

Use project tools (Planview, Jira, spreadsheets) to monitor delivery and keep senior sponsors informed •

Liaise regularly with Beamery (vendor) and internal technology teams on integrations with Workday •

Coordinate cross-functional stakeholders in HR, Legal, Privacy, and Risk, particularly around AI compliance and model risk •

Support fortnightly sponsor reporting - gathering inputs, structuring content, and preparing updates •

Drive workshop design and delivery when required (e.g. around scoping, skills, design decisions) •

Help shape more integrated workstreams as the programme moves into a more interconnected phase

What we require from the candidate:
•

Proven experience as a Project Manager in HR systems implementations on behalf of large organisations •

Track record of delivering projects in the ATS / recruitment / CRM space •

Strong organisational and stakeholder management skills - comfortable driving meetings, owning agendas, following up on actions •

Ability to work across technical and non-technical teams - bridging HR, IT, and governance stakeholders •

Comfortable with tools like Planview or Jira, for project tracking and reporting •

Familiarity with skills frameworks or talent strategy is a bonus (not essential) • Beamery and/or Workday exposure would be fantastic (this is a rare skillset and is non-essential.)

Next steps:

This client will only accept workers operating via an Umbrella or PAYE engagement model.

AMS, a Recruitment Process Outsourcing Company, may in the delivery of some of its services be deemed to operate as an Employment Agency or an Employment Business
