Functional Consultant

SAP SuccessFactors EC Functional Consultant

Our client, a well-established organisation based in Brisbane, is seeking an experienced, hands-on SAP SuccessFactors Functional Consultant to own the configuration, security, and stability of their SuccessFactors landscape.

This role focuses on Employee Central and Recruiting. It's a great opportunity for a configuration specialist who enjoys working independently and being the go-to technical authority for the platform. This is a hands-on, build-and-configure role.

About the Role

• Permanent, full-time position
• Mainly on-site, with 1 day WFH (flexible) - Brisbane based
• $160,000 - $180,000 base plus Super depending on experience

Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end configuration of SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central and Recruiting, including security and role-based permissions (RBP)
• Plan and execute SuccessFactors releases, patches, and bi-annual upgrades, including impact assessment and regression testing
• Configure and maintain Employee Central data models, business rules, workflows, MDF objects, and picklists
• Monitor system performance, data integrity, and platform health — proactively identifying and resolving issues
• Act as the primary escalation point for complex incidents and service requests, ensuring SLAs are met
• Document system configuration and standard operating procedures
• Liaise with SAP support and internal stakeholders (HR, IT, Payroll) to translate business requirements into system configuration

What You'll Bring

• 8+ years of overall SAP experience, including a minimum of 5 years dedicated to SAP SuccessFactors configuration
• Proven experience as a functional/configuration consultant on at least one full-cycle SuccessFactors implementation or major upgrade
• Strong hands-on, technical configuration expertise in Employee Central — business rules, workflows, MDF, and the RBP security model
• Strong hands-on experience configuring SuccessFactors Recruiting
• SAP SuccessFactors certification(s) in relevant modules required (e.g. Employee Central, Recruiting Management)
• Excellent troubleshooting, documentation, and stakeholder communication skills
• Note: this is a hands-on configuration/technical role — candidates whose background is primarily business analysis or requirements gathering (without deep, hands-on configuration experience) will not be a fit

Why Apply

This is your chance to be the technical authority on a critical HR platform, working closely with HR, IT & Payroll stakeholders to shape how SuccessFactors supports the business.
