Sr. Workday Financials Analyst

Sr. Workday Financials Analyst

Our client, a national multi-site organization, is strengthening the finance functional team inside its Workday Center of Excellence and needs a genuinely senior hands-on analyst. This is a build-and-fix role, not a management seat: you'll spend your days in the tenant configuring, troubleshooting, testing, and delivering across the Financials platform, working within the design standards and priorities set by the Workday Financial Systems Director.
There's a steady ticket volume, an active optimization backlog, and upcoming projects including a systems consolidation and acquisition onboarding so the team needs someone with real breadth across modules, not just depth in one.

• Configure and maintain the financial management suite day to day: GL, payables, receivables, fixed assets, projects, expenses, allocations, and banking and treasury
• Build and troubleshoot Accounting Center automation — journal rules, accounting event definitions, and book configuration
• Set up and maintain allocation pools, bases, targets, and rules, working with accounting and FP&A to keep close running smoothly
• Configure banking and treasury: bank account setup, transaction matching, payment processing, and reconciliations
• Maintain projects configuration for capital and facilities work so costs, POs, and expenses land against the right projects

• Configure procure-to-pay across indirect and direct tracks: requisitions, purchase orders, change orders, supplier accounts, expenses, and contracts
• Maintain supplier catalogs and punchout connections, and process supplier onboarding setups with procurement and AP
• Work invoice, PO/PR, and AP processing issues to resolution, digging into root cause so the same tickets stop coming back
• Apply updates to spend thresholds, purchasing policies, and approval hierarchies as directed by policy and governance decisions

• Build and maintain Adaptive Planning models across financial, workforce, and operational planning, plus close and consolidation
• Turn FP&A requirements into working planning configurations
• Build Workday reports, dashboards, and composite reporting from gathered requirements
• Support the finance BI team with data extraction, field mapping, and data integrity questions feeding downstream SQL-based analytics

• Work the functional queue: resolve escalated end-user issues, business process errors, and transaction questions across supported modules
• Execute UAT for enhancements and semi-annual Workday releases; document results and flag issues for the Director's sign-off
• Maintain org and hierarchy configuration supporting field operations, and help stand up newly acquired entities in existing structures
• Share knowledge with junior analysts and follow established governance and change control on every change

• 7+ years in financial systems or senior finance technology roles, with substantial hands-on Workday Financials configuration experience
• Multiple full implementation or optimization cycles across Workday Financial Management and Adaptive Planning
• Fluency in enterprise finance processes: full accounting cycle, procure-to-pay, FP&A, and financial reporting
• Self-sufficient in the tenant: able to take a requirement, assess the options, and deliver a clean configuration without hand-holding
• Clear communicator who is comfortable working directly with finance, accounting, and procurement stakeholders

• Workday Pro: Financial Management — required and current
• Workday Pro: Platform Administrator — required or attainable within six months of hire
• Workday Pro: Adaptive Planning — preferred
