We're looking for an HCM Consultant to join our AMS team, partnering with customers to optimize, enhance, and support their HR technology solutions.

This is a hands-on consulting role where you'll combine business process expertise with technology problem-solving. You'll work closely with customers to understand their needs, recommend solutions, configure enhancements, troubleshoot issues, and help them continuously improve their people operations.

Unlike traditional project-based consulting, AMS gives you the opportunity to build long-term client relationships, influence ongoing strategy, and see the real impact of your work over time.

• Partner with customers to understand HR processes, business challenges, and priorities.
• Design, configure, and support solutions that improve efficiency, user experience, and business outcomes.
• Gather requirements, investigate issues, and recommend practical, scalable solutions.
• Support testing, troubleshooting, and ongoing enhancements.
• Advise customers on process improvements and leading practices across the employee lifecycle.
• Build trusted relationships with stakeholders and become a valued extension of their team.
• Collaborate with colleagues across functional and technical disciplines to deliver exceptional customer outcomes.
• Contribute to knowledge sharing, team development, and continuous improvement initiatives.

• Experience in HR technology, HRIS, HCM consulting, HR operations, or business process improvement.
• Strong understanding of HR processes and how technology supports them.
• Experience gathering requirements, solving business problems, and working directly with stakeholders.
• A hands-on approach with a passion for understanding how systems and processes work.
• Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a customer-focused environment.

• Experience with Workday or another HCM platform (SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM, UKG, Dayforce, etc.).
• Experience supporting system configurations, enhancements, testing, or implementations.
• Workday certification or exposure to Workday environments.
• Experience working in a consulting or customer-facing role.

• Work with a variety of global customers across industries.
• Build deeper client relationships and become a trusted advisor.
• Combine consulting, technology, and problem-solving in one role.
• Influence continuous improvement rather than delivering a project and moving on.
• Grow your expertise across HR processes, technology, and customer engagement.
