This is a dual‑impact role: you will be equally at home resolving a configuration issue in the morning and contributing to a cross‑functional system enhancement project in the afternoon. You are someone who builds deep trust with Finance stakeholders, communicates technical solutions clearly to non‑technical audiences, and takes pride in the reliability and quality of the systems you support.
Responsibilities- Serve as the primary Workday Financials administrator and day‑to‑day support contact for the Finance team, triaging and resolving configuration issues, user requests, and system inquiries with a high degree of responsiveness and quality

- Support and deliver enhancements, new feature rollouts, and process improvements in Workday Financials, from requirements through testing and change management
- Participate in Workday semi‑annual release cycles — reviewing release notes, assessing functional impact, coordinating user acceptance testing, and managing deployment
- Maintain accurate and up‑to‑date system documentation, including configuration guides, business process flows, and training materials
- Collaborate with the broader Enterprise Systems team on cross‑functional initiatives involving Workday HCM, Adaptive Planning, Integrations, and third‑party connected systems
- Work with Finance leadership to support strategic priorities such as process automation, reporting improvements, and scalability initiatives tied to company growth
- Act as a bridge between Finance and IT, ensuring system changes are delivered with appropriate controls, testing rigor, and minimal disruption to financial operations
- Manage support tickets and project tasks through a defined intake and prioritization process, communicating status and expectations proactively to stakeholders
- Hands‑on experience with Workday Financials configuration and support experience in a business analyst or functional analyst capacity
- Deep working knowledge of one or more Workday Financial Management modules, with the ability to configure business processes, validation rules, condition rules, and security independently
- Demonstrated ability to support day‑to‑day Finance operations while simultaneously contributing to project‑based work and strategic initiatives
- Strong stakeholder management skills — you can navigate competing priorities, manage expectations across Finance and IT, and communicate clearly at all levels
- Solid understanding of core finance and accounting concepts (GAAP, month‑end close, AP/AR workflows, expense management) and how they translate to Workday configuration
- Proficiency in English sufficient for professional verbal and written communication with colleagues and partners worldwide
