Job Description

Senior HR Transformation Consultant

Are you the kind of consultant who doesn’t just deliver HR transformation but actually shapes it? Do you thrive on solving complex people, process, and technology challenges—and influencing senior leaders to think differently about the future of HR?

If so, we want to meet you.

As a Senior HR Transformation Consultant, you’ll step into a role where your expertise isn’t just valued—it’s pivotal. You’ll partner directly with C-suite stakeholders, redefine HR operating models, and guide organisations through business-critical transformation programmes. This isn’t about incremental change; it’s about designing the HR function of tomorrow.

At Version 1, you’ll:

✨ Lead strategic transformation programmes that redefine how HR operates at scale
✨ Partner with global brands, helping them modernise processes, technology, and employee experience
✨ Advise on market-leading HR technologies, including Oracle HCM Cloud, Workday, and SuccessFactors
✨ Shape future-state operating models, drive digital HR adoption, and influence enterprise strategy
✨ Enjoy real autonomy, trust, and the opportunity to make visible impact
✨ Be supported with certifications, a clear career pathway, and a culture that invests in your growth
✨ Work in a values-driven consultancy recognised as one of the Best Workplaces in the UK & Ireland

This is a role for ambitious, strategic thinkers—people who bring both HR expertise and consulting leadership, and who want their work to matter.

If you're ready to take ownership of transformation programmes that challenge you, elevate your career, and position you as a trusted advisor to senior leaders, then Version 1 is the place where you’ll thrive.
