We also develop strategic direction and opportunities through thought leadership and alignment with Mercer’s broader Career and HR Transformation offerings as well as other Marsh businesses, such as Oliver Wyman and Mercer Marsh Benefits.

This role bridges delivery, enablement, and strategy.

We will count on you to:

  • Architect and lead delivery of the Core HCM workstream, ensuring adherence to Workday best practices while maintaining robust security for a variety of engagement types, including initial implementation, phase X, and others

  • Collaborate with clients and internal teams to analyze requirements and design scalable solutions that directly address client needs, acting as a subject matter expert (SME) for complex or sensitive client issues

  • Maintain accurate project forecasts for assigned workstream, monitor delivery progress, and communicate timelines, risks, and expectations to stakeholders in a timely fashion

  • 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.
