  • Collaborate cross-functionally with other domain leads to ensure seamless delivery

  • Develop and deliver thought leadership content and intellectual property, such as knowledge sharing sessions, enablement guides, and best practice materials

  • Contribute as a subject matter expert for sales and delivery, supporting solution architecture, demonstrations, client presentations, and scoping estimates

What you need to have:

  • Active Workday Certification in Workday HCM.

  • 5+ years of experience as a certified Workday consultant

  • 3+ years as a lead consultant delivering Core HCM at the level of a subject matter expert

  • Strong subject matter expertise of Workday architecture, security, and best practices

  • Proven ability to successfully navigate client-facing situations and coordinate support resources

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

What makes you stand out?

  • Additional Workday certifications (People Experience, Peakon, Reporting, Advanced Compensation, etc.)

  • Proven ability to mentor, coach, and enable support consultants

  • Bilingual proficiency in Spanish or other languages

Why join our team:

  • We help you be your best through professional development opportunities, interesting work and supportive leaders.

  • We foster a vibrant and inclusive culture where you can work with talented colleagues to create new solutions and have impact for colleagues, clients and communities.

  • Our scale enables us to provide a range of career opportunities, as well as benefits and rewards to enhance your well-being.
