A Day in the Life

As a Senior Workday Projects & Financials Analyst, you'll serve as a hands-on functional and technical expert responsible for the configuration, administration, and continuous improvement of Workday Financials and Projects. Workday remains our system of record, but this role is not siloed to it, you'll partner with business leaders, end users, and the owners of adjacent enterprise applications (e.g., Coupa for procurement, HighRadius for accounts receivable/cash application, and Salesforce for CRM) to design end-to-end business processes that make sense across the broader systems landscape, not just within Workday.

Reporting to Director, Workday Projects & Financials, this is a high-impact role suited for a confident communicator who can engage directly with end users, lead small to mid-sized projects independently, and coordinate across cross-functional teams, including teams outside the Workday ecosystem, to deliver outcomes. The compensation range for this role is $125,000 - $155,000 USD in addition to an annual bonus (5%), commensurate with experience, skills, and geographic location. We welcome candidates based in both the United States and Canada; compensation for Canada-based hires will be aligned to the local market. The role can be based remotely, with a preference for candidates located near one of our locations in Irvine, CA; Denver, CO; Little Rock, AR; or Calgary, AB.

To thrive in this role, you'll be comfortable taking ownership of the following responsibilities:

Strategic Business Analysis & Advisory

Serve as a subject matter expert on Workday Financials, Projects, Project Billing, and Customer Accounts functionality
Understand business problems and opportunities and recommend the right solution, whether that's a Workday-native configuration or a process design that spans Workday and adjacent enterprise applications, aligned with organizational goals
Evaluate how Workday Financials and Projects processes intersect with adjacent enterprise applications, including Coupa (procurement), HighRadius (accounts receivable/cash application), and Salesforce (CRM), recommending end-to-end process designs that keep Workday as the system of record while accounting for upstream and downstream systems
Provide strategic recommendations for current and upcoming product roadmap items; participate in product road mapping and backlog prioritization based on business value
Maintain current knowledge of Workday release cycles, new features, and industry best practices to proactively surface relevant enhancements

Workday Configuration & Security Administration

Configure and maintain Workday Projects modules including Budgeting, Resource Forecasting, Project/Task Management, Project Financials
Administer and maintain the Workday security model, including security groups (role-based, user-based, and intersection), domain and business process security policies, and security audit and compliance monitoring
Troubleshoot and resolve Workday system issues, escalation priorities, and post-production support

Project Leadership & Cross-Functional Coordination

Lead small to mid-sized projects end-to-end, including scoping, workplan development, stakeholder alignment, and delivery
Collaborate with technical peers of Coupa, HighRadius, Salesforce, and other enterprise applications to determine where a process should live natively in Workday versus be handed off to, or informed by, another platform, and design accordingly
Facilitate meetings, working sessions, and status communications tailored to audience and deliverable
Support change management planning and execution; contribute to the development of training materials, SOPs, and process documentation

End User Engagement & Support

Serve as a confident, approachable point of contact for end users, translating technical concepts into plain language and building strong working relationships across business functions
Proactively identify and resolve user pain points through system improvements, training, and process refinement, whether the fix lives in Workday or requires coordination with another application owner
