Bringing cutting-edge technology and top-tier human support together, we connect clients with customized solutions across a range of insurance, reinsurance, payroll, benefits, cybersecurity, mortgage services – and more.

In the last twelve years, Acrisure has grown in revenue from $38 million to almost $5 billion and employs over 19,000 colleagues in more than 20 countries. Acrisure was built on entrepreneurial spirit. Prioritizing leadership, accountability, and collaboration, we equip our teams to work at the highest levels possible.

Job Summary:

Acrisure is seeking a Project Manager, Finance Systems Delivery to join our growing team in Grand Rapids. The Project Manager – Workday Financials will lead the delivery of several of Acrisure’s enterprise-wide Workday Financials implementation and ongoing optimization initiatives. Reporting to the Vice President of Financial Systems Delivery, this role will guide projects from planning and design through deployment and stabilization, and continuous improvement. In addition to driving scope, schedule, and delivery, the Project Manager will incorporate change management activities to help ensure smooth adoption and stakeholder readiness across the organization. The Project Manager will partner closely with Finance, IT, and business leaders to ensure solutions meet operational and compliance needs, while also driving stakeholder engagement, adoption, and organizational readiness.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead end-to-end Workday Financials implementation (General Ledger, Accounts Payable/Receivable, Procurement, Cash Management, Fixed Assets, etc.) from initial planning through deployment and hypercare.

  • Build and maintain detailed project plans and budgets, setting scope, milestones, and resource assignments while managing dependencies and risks.

  • Serve as the central contact for stakeholders and steering committees, preparing concise updates, status reports, and executive-level presentations.

  • Direct integration and data migration workstreams to ensure accurate, secure data movement and smooth connections with upstream and downstream systems.

  • Incorporate Change Management activities into project planning to prepare impacted teams for new processes and systems. Partner with Finance, HR, and business leads to develop communications, training, and stakeholder engagement plans that support readiness and adoption.

  • Lead testing activities—unit, system, integration, and user acceptance—ensuring thorough defect resolution and readiness for deployment.

  • Coordinate cutover planning, go-live execution, and hypercare to secure a seamless transition to production.

  • Maintain proactive risk, issue, and change-control processes, including RAID tracking and contingency planning.

  • Embed compliance and internal controls in solution design to meet accounting and audit requirements.

  • Support user adoption and training while identifying opportunities for continuous improvement and future enhancements.

Requirements:

  • Solid understanding of core financial processes: general ledger, accounts payable/receivable, cash management, procurement; and related integration and data conversion practices

  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced, acquisition-driven environment.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to convey complex information to both technical and business audiences.

  • Excellent interpersonal and relationship-building skills to foster collaboration and drive consensus.

  • Mature problem-solving and decision-making skills, with a track record of anticipating and resolving challenges.

  • Strong time-management skills and the ability to meet deadlines while balancing competing priorities.

Education and Experience:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Accounting, Information Systems, or a related field

  • 5–8 years of proven project management experience leading ERP or large-scale financial systems initiatives.

  • Experience integrating change management activities (such as communications, training, and stakeholder engagement) into large enterprise system projects.

  • Workday Financials implementation experience strongly preferred (or other tier-one ERP such as Oracle or SAP)

Pay Details:

The base compensation range for this position is $118,000 - $180,000. This range reflects Acrisure's good faith estimate at the time of this posting. Placement within the range will be based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to skills, experience, qualifications, location, and internal equity.

Candidates should be comfortable with an on-site presence to support collaboration, team leadership, and cross-functional partnership.
