UK University Renews SAP Cloud Agreement with Zalaris

Zalaris UK, part of the Zalaris ASA group, has signed an agreement with University of Salford for the renewal of SAP SuccessFactors’ cloud-based talent management solutions.

The University of Salford is a friendly, vibrant and pioneering university based in Greater Manchester in the north west of the UK which is rooted in the community but globally focused.

This renewal marks the fifth year since the University started using SAP SuccessFactors. This relationship which originally started with ROC, prior to its acquisition by Zalaris ASA, has this year has seen the University transition to Zalaris’ SAP Partner Managed Cloud (PMC) arrangement. With PMC, Zalaris are able to sell, implement and provide post go live support on consulting for SuccessFactors, cited as a leader in this space by Nelson Hall.

“I am delighted that the University have continued to show their trust in Zalaris as their partner. We will be working hard to achieve further success in the UK Higher Education sector during 2019 which we see as a key sector for Zalaris”, says Will Jackson, UK Managing Director.

“We welcome University of Salford as a Zalaris PMC client. As a Gold Partner of SAP, we are able to offer a great HR platform for organisations and I’m thrilled that the University is now, following our acquisition of ROC, able to take advantage of this. We also believe the higher education sector will face a lot of changes in the coming years related to re-skilling of the existing workforce due to digital disruption and that is an area where Zalaris can add a lot of transformational value for HR.”, says Hans-Peter Mellerud, CEO.
