Description

Following the launch of a new corporate plan the complexity and size of our business, including our workforce, is changing. A key aim of our new corporate plan is to become an employer of choice across our geography; using our employer brand to attract, recruit, develop and grow talent. Over the next five years, we plan to make record investments in the services we offer our customers (to become a top class landlord), our properties and our people. Our digital transformation is already underway with the launch of new customer apps and investment in big data solutions. We want to ensure we have the right solutions in place to support the People Focused strategy; delivering an adaptable solution which provides a greater degree of self service, enables a changing business environment, supports a changing reward and benefits portfolio and with the capacity to underpin smart working. We aim to:

• Have a reputation as a leading, inclusive and rewarding employer that people aspire to work for
• Ensure our colleagues are engaged with the work we do and the differences we make
• Grow our people so that they choose to stay and build a career with us

We want to empower our people and managers to have greater control with increased self-service and reporting, supported by streamlined and automated transactional processes. We require powerful and intuitive mobile functionality to promote modern and smart ways of working.

As part of the corporate plan delivery, we are seeking replacement of solutions for Core HR, Payroll and Learning. The information gathered as part of this soft market test will input directly to the outline business case for the future service.
