Business Systems & Technology Analysis, IT Business Analyst, Systems Analyst
Our client, a large, multi-function organization, is looking for a Senior Workday Business Analyst to own the connection between HR, Payroll, Finance, and technology teams within their Workday HCM ecosystem. You'll be the one turning business needs into real, workable solutions — running discovery sessions, shaping requirements, and guiding projects through testing and go-live. It's a role built for someone who can move fluidly between technical and non-technical audiences and drive results without needing formal authority to do it.
C2C is not an option with this job opening and all applicants should be able work for any US Employer without sponsorship. Sponsorship is not provided and this person will not need to require sponsorship in the future.

- Exposure across multiple Workday modules, not siloed to one function
- High-visibility work directly shaping enterprise-wide improvements
- Collaborative environment within a large, complex organization
- Real opportunity to influence outcomes and drive change through relationships
Compensation : $100-115K based on experience
What You'll Be Doing
- Act as the go-between for business stakeholders and technical teams on Workday initiatives
- Run requirements-gathering sessions and workshops across HR, Payroll, Compensation, Benefits, and Talent
- Turn business needs into clear specs, user stories, and process documentation
- Review current processes, spot gaps, and recommend better ways of doing things
- Support system upgrades, enhancements, and regression testing
- Guide testing cycles, from planning through UAT and defect resolution
- Keep documentation current, including requirements and test scripts
What You'll Need to be Considered
- Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Human Resources, or a related field
- 5+ years of experience as a business analyst, HRIS analyst, or similar, supporting enterprise systems
