Functional expertise
Practical ownership across the HCM lifecycle.
Focused on the difficult space between a business requirement and a production-ready change: understanding the process, designing the configuration, proving it through testing and supporting it after release.
Oracle Recruiting Cloud
Requisitions, approvals, candidate experience, offers, contracts, pending workers and Move to HR.
Redwood & VBS
Page transformation, business rules, field behaviour, feature branches, merges and package deployment.
Security & AOR
Roles, privileges, security profiles, Areas of Responsibility, role mapping and auto-provisioning.
Data & reporting
HDL and HSDL mass delivery plus OTBI reporting using existing subject areas and exposed data models.
Testing & release
Requirements, test scenarios, UAT, defect resolution, CAB, production deployment and post-go-live support.
Selected work
Evidence, not a list of modules.
Representative examples from enterprise Oracle HCM delivery. Internal data and sensitive implementation detail have been intentionally removed.
Moving critical HR processes into Redwood
Led functional adoption across Core HR and Recruiting using Visual Builder Studio, Design Studio and Business Rules. Managed branches, merges, package deployment and controlled release through DEV, UAT, CAB and production.
Delivered multiple live Redwood experiences, including improved validations, field controls and process parity.
Separating access during business transformation
Designed and maintained more than 800 department-based mappings controlling OTBI reporting access across approximately 400 departments. Separately configured Line Manager and Hiring Manager role mappings using Person Type and System Person Type criteria to provision the appropriate access for different worker populations.
Created a scalable security model under genuine M&A separation constraints.
Supporting two recruitment models in one environment
Redesigned functional configuration so two parts of the business could operate different recruitment processes within the same Oracle environment. Migrated Hiring pages from Classic to Redwood with parity and usability improvements.
Preserved operational continuity while enabling distinct recruitment journeys.
Leading Oracle HCM User Access Reviews
Lead recurring Oracle HCM User Access Reviews supporting SOX controls, coordinating access evidence, stakeholder review, follow-up actions and improvements after each cycle.
Strengthened access governance through clear ownership, structured review and continuous improvement.
Simplifying approvals without losing control
Analysed and redesigned approval behaviour for position and workforce changes, retaining the necessary first-level approval while removing unnecessary escalation for higher management levels.
Reduced avoidable approval steps and improved completion speed.
Creating reliable functional inputs for SuccessFactors
Designed common lookups for employee inclusion and exclusion, and created flexfields, LOVs and position-level structures for Global Job Architecture mapping. This was functional integration support rather than extract or connectivity development.
Gave downstream extracts governed data structures where no direct one-to-one mapping existed.
Experience
From teaching people to transforming their systems.
A career progression built around explaining complexity clearly, understanding how people work and turning operational needs into repeatable solutions.
