Job Summary

This is a dual-focus role built for someone who is genuinely excellent at Workday reporting and is ready to grow into a well-rounded people analytics practitioner. You will own the Workday Report Writer function for TAG’s enterprise instance while also contributing to broader analytics work — building dashboards, partnering on workforce metrics, and helping us expand what our data can do.

The Workday side is the anchor of this role. You’ll be the organization’s go-to expert for Report Writer, calculated fields, matrix and composite reports, and RaaS configuration. But you’ll also be expected to stretch: writing SQL for cross-system validation, contributing to Python-based workflows, adapting to Claude Code, and supporting the team’s broader analytics output.

Stakeholders across Legal, Compliance, Brand HR, Compensation & Benefits, and the broader employee population depend on the accuracy of what you produce. This is a high-trust, high-ownership role where validation, proactive communication, and a genuine service orientation are non-negotiable.

Essential Responsibilities

Workday Reporting (Primary Focus)

Serve as the organization’s subject matter expert for Workday Report Writer — including advanced calculated fields and conditional logic, matrix and composite reports, and RaaS configuration for downstream consumption
Build and maintain complex custom reports by navigating intricate business object relationships and data source dependencies
Develop derived metrics and cross-functional calculated fields that support compensation, headcount, attrition, compliance, and field HR use cases
Triage and manage a concurrent queue of reporting requests — assessing complexity, feasibility, and data availability before committing to timelines
Troubleshoot reporting issues at the data model level, understanding how Workday configurations, security roles, and business object relationships affect output
Validate every report output before delivery; errors caught by stakeholders are avoidable and not acceptable

People Analytics (Growth Area)

Contribute to workforce reporting and metrics including headcount, attrition, tenure, diversity, and compensation analytics
Build and maintain dashboards and visualizations that communicate workforce trends to HR leadership and business partners
Use Python to automate repetitive data tasks, support report delivery workflows, and assist with data preparation for downstream analytics
Write SQL for ad-hoc data extraction, cross-system validation, and supporting analytics pipelines
Use AI Tools (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, etc.) to support and augment analytics development processes
Partner with the broader People Analytics team on projects that require combining Workday data with other HR and business data sources

Reporting Governance & Data Quality

Own the organization and health of TAG’s Workday HCM report library — naming conventions, folder structure, categorization, and access
Audit existing reports regularly to identify duplicates, outdated outputs, and consolidation opportunities
Document data lineage, transformation logic, and known nuances in our Workday instance
Partner with HRIS to align governance standards and ensure all new reports are built and catalogued consistently
Identify and resolve data discrepancies in partnership with HRIS and downstream data consumers

How We Work

Our team is small, direct, and holds a high bar for accuracy — because the data we produce supports decisions about real people. We work collaboratively with HRIS and HR partners across the organization, and we’re trusted to own our work end-to-end.

Validation is part of the job. Every output is checked before it leaves. Errors caught by stakeholders are avoidable — we don’t let them happen.
Proactive communication is the standard. Stakeholders don’t chase us. We keep them informed before they need to ask.
The report library is a product. A well-organized, consistently named report environment is part of what we deliver — not an afterthought.
We use AI-assisted development tools to work more efficiently. Comfort with experimentation and new tools fits well with how we operate.
