You should bring strong analytical skills, the ability to translate business needs into system solutions, and confidence partnering with senior HR stakeholders. Experience across multiple Workday implementations, along with the ability to map processes and identify improvements, will be highly valued. We’re seeking someone proactive, improvement‑focused, able to manage multiple deadlines, and a collaborative team player. Job architecture experience is a bonus
