  • 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:
