The Opportunity
You will step into a key OCM leadership role, ensuring program continuity This position offers a unique chance to manage change across distinct project phases:

Preferred: Direct experience with Dayforce (Ceridian) or a comparable modern HCM platform (e.g., Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle Cloud).
Level: Intermediate to Senior-level OCM expertise (5+ years of dedicated OCM experience preferred).
Attributes: Highly adaptable, collaborative, pragmatic, and possess a "roll up your sleeves" attitude to support a fast-moving, small project team.
