ABOUT YOU

We don’t expect you to tick every box on our job description. The most important things we are looking for are:

• Essential – minimum of 5 years experience supporting, configuring and significantly developing the iTrent software and processes
• Essential – minimum of 5 years of experience using tools including Business Objects to fulfil workforce reporting requirements that inform analysis, decision-making and statutory reporting
• Essential – expertise in systems support or administration, maintaining, developing and reporting of other large Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems

• Knowledge of ITSM framework (user management, service and change management)

• Organisational skills – you may be responsible for multiple applications serving our residents’ needs or internal users with complex business requirements
• Prioritisation skills – you will be supporting thousands of internal users and prioritising needs with resource management
• Sincerity and integrity – you can demonstrate that you work with honesty, trust and a ‘one’ organisation approach
• Experience of positive and effective teamwork – line managing and mentoring

WE UNDERSTAND THE BENEFITS OF USING AI IN THE WORKPLACE. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE THINKING OF USING THIS TOOL TO SUBMIT YOUR APPLICATION, WE ASK YOU TO THINK ABOUT WHAT VALUE IT WILL ADD. AI TOOLS TEND TO LACK THE PERSONAL TOUCH AND AUTHENTICITY WE VALUE IN CANDIDATES. WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO SHOWCASE YOUR UNIQUE KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS USING YOUR OWN VOICE.
