Workday Business Systems Analyst

We are seeking an experienced Workday Recruiting Business Systems Analyst (BSA) to help our HRIS team support a high-volume Recruiting portfolio. This consultant will work alongside HRIS Recruiting leads and Talent Acquisition stakeholders to stabilize day-to-day delivery, drive solution design, and execute configuration and testing in Workday Recruiting.

This is a hands‑on, client‑facing role. We need an individual who can navigate ambiguity, lead working sessions, propose options, and drive work to completion.

This role is focused on post‑go‑live stabilization and enhancement work, ongoing configuration, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement, not a net‑new implementation.

• Lead requirements gathering with Talent Acquisition, including running working sessions, clarifying scope, capturing decisions, and documenting outcomes.
• Own work items end‑to‑end
  , driving progress through design, configuration, testing, and readiness for deployment, with clear next steps and follow‑through.
• Translate requests into practical Workday Recruiting solutions (process + configuration).
• Configure and troubleshoot Workday Recruiting, including:
  • Job requisitions and templates
  • Candidate stages, dispositions, and routing
  • Offer processes and related business processes
  • Questionnaires, notifications/alerts, and text blocks
  • Condition rules, validations, and calculated fields (as applicable)
• Support UAT planning and execution, including test scripts, defect triage, and stakeholder signoff.
• Own a set of Recruiting work items end‑to‑end, including intake clarification, requirements, solution design, configuration, testing, and readiness for deployment.
• Provide clear weekly status updates: progress, decisions needed, risks, and dependencies.

• 5+ years supporting and configuring Workday Recruiting as a BSA/analyst
• Demonstrated ability to lead stakeholders, facilitate working sessions, and drive execution.
• Strong functional knowledge of Workday Recruiting business processes and configuration.
• Strong testing discipline (UAT planning, scripts, validation, defect management).
• Clear, professional communication skills, comfortable working directly with clients.

• Experience with Phenom (especially candidate workflows, Recruiting integration touchpoints).
• Experience partnering with integration teams and supporting recruiting‑related integrations and data flows.
• Experience working in a structured change environment (documentation, governance, migration controls).

We are not looking for a consultant who only takes fully formed requirements. We need someone who can drive requirement gathering
, bring structure to ambiguous requests, and actively push work to completion with stakeholders.
