Hcm Implementation Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Job Title: Human Resources Implementation Consultant (GLBP)

Transforming HCM Strategies to Solutions:

Since 1993, the professional services firm FosterThomas has been proud to provide our worldwide clients with human capital management (HCM) consulting services including implementation support, payroll processing and talent acquisition. We deliver tailored cost-containment HCM consulting services to easily meet some of the most complex challenges that our clients face daily.

Be an HCM Subject Matter Expert:

We recognize that not every organization has the internal capacity, global expertise, or technical depth required to successfully execute a complex, multi-country HCM implementation. That's where FosterThomas delivers value.

Our HR Implementation Consultants partner directly with clients to navigate the complexities of global workforce systems, regulatory environments, and cross-functional transformation initiatives. We provide Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) who bring both strategic insight and hands-on execution, reducing implementation risk, driving alignment across regions and countries, and ensuring sustainable operational success.

As an HR Implementation Consultant with FosterThomas, you will serve as a trusted advisor and strategic partner. You will lead and support global HCM implementations from data harmonization/optimization and design through deployment and stabilization. You will help translate business requirements into scalable, compliant global solutions and drive standardization while respecting regional nuances and regulatory requirements. Our IC's also help optimize solution performance, support change management efforts and reduce strain on internal client teams by providing structure, clarity and expert guidance.

Job Purpose:

The HR Implementation Consultant plays a key role in delivering successful ADP Lyric and GlobalView workstream implementations by translating business requirements into effective system solutions. This position ensures projects are executed on time while driving alignment, optimizing processes, and long-term value for clients.

• Drive accountability for project milestones and deliverables through proactive oversight, issue resolution, and effective coordination with the FosterThomas team.
• Lead and support data harmonization, migration readiness, data validation, Lyric or GlobalView configuration support, testing during User Acceptance Testing, and dual maintenance, ensuring data integrity and compliance standards are met.
• Assist in the design and documentation of scalable HR service delivery models, future-state workflows, and operational processes that support standardization across regions while respecting local requirements.
• Prepare and deliver comprehensive weekly project status updates or dashboards highlighting accomplishments, upcoming activities, risks, and mitigation plans for both clients and leadership.
• Identify, assess, and manage project risks, dependencies, and change impacts, escalating appropriately to minimize disruption and maintain implementation momentum.
• Serve as a liaison between ADP, client stakeholders, internal teams, and third-party vendors to ensure clear communication, alignment of expectations, and timely resolution of issues.
• Contribute to continuous improvement efforts by documenting and refining standard operating procedures (SOPs), governance models, and best practices for both internal teams and client partners.
• Exercise sound, data-driven judgment in decision-making, balancing global standardization with regional compliance, operational realities, and long-term client success.
• Maintain strong utilization and time management practices, ensuring high-quality client delivery while meeting billable performance expectations.
