HCM Solutions Consultant - Absence Management

Are you the type of consultant who thrives on structure, builds momentum in project teams, and brings people together around smart, effective solutions? Do you understand the importance of streamlined HR processes, especially when it comes to Absence, Time & Attendance, and Payroll - and how these connect to the broader people ecosystem?

We’re looking for an HCM Solutions Consultant with experience in absence management to join our Oslo team. In this role, you’ll work closely with customers to implement the CatalystOne HCM platform, with a strong focus on delivering high-quality, business-critical configurations that enable long-term success. Absence Management is one of the most important focus areas going forward, and CatalystOne will significantly develop its functionality to meet the overall needs of our customers.

CatalystOne is a Scandinavian success story. Our Human Capital Management (HCM) platform helps more than 350 organisations and over 600,000 users streamline their HR processes across the Nordics. From core HR to performance management and beyond, we make it easier for businesses to work efficiently, securely, and at scale.

We’re proud to partner with well-known companies such as COOP, ATEA, PEAB, Vy and Vinmonopolet – supporting a wide range of industries on their digital HR journeys. Together, we’re building stronger people processes for the modern workplace.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with Customers: Be curious and gain insights to support, facilitate, and challenge customers, ensuring the best solutions for their unique needs and ambitions.
• Drive Absence & HR Master Data Projects: Lead or support implementations focused on absence management and core HR master data. Ensure solutions align with HR strategies, legal frameworks, and operational requirements.
• Take a Consultative Approach: Use your strong communication skills to serve as a trusted advisor. Lead meetings, guide customers through configuration and data migration, and facilitate training sessions that build competence and confidence.
• Inspire with Insights: Actively share trends, common practices, and other relevant knowledge to bring added value and inspiration to every customer dialogue.
• Consider the Big Picture: Understand how data, processes, reporting, and integrations connect — and ensure configurations support the entire HCM ecosystem.
• Ensure Customer Satisfaction: Work to minimise time to value while maximising platform adoption and long-term benefit.
• Manage Projects Effectively: Take ownership of project timelines, scope, and budget. Document progress, decisions, and configurations using our structured project tools and methodologies.
• Stay Relevant: Contribute to the continuous improvement of our implementation methodology and materials, in close collaboration with our Centre of Excellence and Product Management teams.
• Communicate Product Requests: Channel customer feedback and product requests to the right teams to support ongoing platform development.
• Share Knowledge: Actively support a culture of knowledge sharing — with both colleagues and customers.

What we're looking for

• Experience implementing business-critical systems such as HCM, Payroll, Absence, or Time & Attendance.
• Background working as a Consultant or in similar customer-facing roles
• Proven ability to lead or contribute to projects involving absence management and/or HR master data.
• A structured and detail-oriented mindset.
• A consultative and collaborative working style, with strong communication skills and the ability to build trust with diverse stakeholders.
• Ability to translate between business and technical contexts, with confidence in both “speaking HR” and “speaking IT”.
• Comfortable running workshops, managing complex implementations, and working across cross-functional teams.
• Fluent in Norwegian and English — Norwegian is essential for working with our customers.

Benefits

As well as your salary, you’ll receive:  

• Time Off That Matters: Enjoy a solid 25 days of vacation per year to recharge and regroup.  
• Financial and Health Security: Benefit from a comprehensive pension and insurance package, plus private healthcare.

• Lunch Made Easy: Skip the hassle and grab a bite at our staff canteen.
