Job Title: Sr. Manager, Application Development (Workday)

Location: Chicago, IL (5 days onsite_ but will have 50 remote days to choose from + every federal holiday off and the week of Christmas/new years employees are completely remote.)

Contract Length: 1+ Year

Mode of Interview: 1 st round virtual, 2 nd round in person

Role Overview: This person will support the HR and Finance space within the Workday ecosystem. They need to be both highly technical and a strong leader. The role itself will not be hands-on day-to-day, but they need to have been hands-on with Workday throughout their career and stayed close enough to the technology to lead technical teams, challenge decisions, and speak confidently with senior leadership.

Top Must-Haves:

• 8 10+ years of deep Workday experience preferred; 6 8 may work depending on depth.
• Experience across both Workday HR/HCM and Finance.
• Needs broad Workday ecosystem knowledge - not just one module.
• Should understand core HR areas such as HCM, payroll, recruiting, time tracking, etc., in addition to the Finance side.
• Strong technical/application development background.
• AWS very important.
• Java/application development exposure.
• Strong leadership experience in addition to technical experience.
• Comfortable working directly with senior executives and business leaders.

Workday Experience Important Distinction
Someone who has only:

• Administered Workday
• Participated in one Workday implementation
• Specialized in one module
• Worked for a client that happens to use Workday

will likely not have enough depth.

Consulting experience can work, but ideally, they have been consulting specifically within the Workday ecosystem and have had broad exposure across the platform. The biggest focus should be finding someone with the combination of deep Workday HR + Finance experience, technical credibility, AWS exposure, and strong senior leadership experience.

Culture / Leadership Fit
They want someone who:

• Can push both the team and the business forward
• Holds people accountable
• Delivers and executes
• Has urgency and passion
• Can challenge people without being overbearing
• Can balance the needs of two different business groups - HR and Finance
• Is comfortable stepping in quickly and owning deliverables
