About the Team

About the Role

As a consultant, you will lead high-impact, end-to-end engagements. Unlike roles that focus solely on advisory or multi-year implementations, EA gives you the satisfaction of owning both the solution and the build.

This is a highly visible, customer-facing role where you act as both the architect and the builder. You will analyze complex requirements, design the technical solution, and perform hands-on configuration to solve critical business problems for our most prestigious global clients. You will manage specialized requests (typically 10–100 hours), allowing you to see the immediate impact of your work across a wide variety of global customers

About You

You are a Workday professional who thrives on autonomy and variety. You enjoy the "consultant-builder" hybrid model—having the authority to design a solution and the skills to bring it to life. You are a confident communicator who can lead an engagement solo, guiding external stakeholders through complex landscapes with ease and want to leave a lasting mark on a growing service line. You are ready to move beyond "steady state" work into a role where no two weeks—and no two requests—are the same.

Basic Qualifications

• Experience: 5+ years of Workday Functional experience in a lead capacity.

• Functional Domain Expertise: Demonstrated expertise across a combination of key Workday domains: Core HCM, Payroll, Absence, Time Tracking.

• Delivery: Proven success in managing technical requests from requirement gathering through to production deployment and testing.

• Project Lifecycle: Confirmed knowledge of the software deployment life cycle, from requirement gathering to production deployment and testing.

• Language: Professional-level English fluency is mandatory.

Other Qualifications

• The "EA" Mindset: Exceptional ability to work with high autonomy and manage multiple engagements simultaneously.

• Consultative Communication: Excellent verbal and written skills, with the ability to explain complex technical solutions to non-technical business stakeholders.

• Founding Spirit: A proactive approach to problem-solving and a desire to help build out new internal processes for a rapidly growing team.

• Experience: Relevant work experience required.

Our Approach to Flexible Work
 

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
