  • Create and maintain documentation, including configurations, SOPs, and knowledge base materials.
  • Build and maintain Workday reports and dashboards.
  • Lead training and change management efforts for system updates and new functionality.
  • Ensure compliance with international timekeeping, holiday, and absence policies.
  • Support additional HR systems and shared services initiatives as needed.

Requirements

  • Senior-level Workday functional experience in Time Tracking (primary), Scheduling, Absence, and Payroll.
  • Extensive hands-on configuration and BP design expertise.
  • 3+ full lifecycle Workday HCM implementations.
  • Proven experience migrating from ADP eTime to Workday Time Tracking, including data mapping, testing, and go-live readiness.
  • SME experience supporting mid-to-large-scale HRIS programs.
  • Strong understanding of global payroll, labor compliance, and workforce policies.
  • Workday certification (or the ability to certify) in relevant modules.
  • Experience leading design workshops, managing project plans, and driving cross-functional collaboration.
  • Strong communication, problem-solving, and stakeholder engagement skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple efforts simultaneously and guide team members effectively.

Education & Qualifications

  • Bachelors degree or equivalent experience.
  • Strong foundation in international payroll compliance and time/absence regulations.
  • Excellent communication, project management, and issue-resolution capabilities.
