Workday Analyst

We are looking for a Workday Analyst to take ownership of Workday and help ensure our Finance systems work the way the business needs them to. While the external title is Workday Analyst, this role is a Business Systems Analyst at its core.

You will work closely with Finance leaders and the technology team to turn business needs into reliable, well run system solutions. This is not a ticket-based support role.

• Proactively identify opportunities to improve workflows, controls, and user experience within Workday
• Support Workday enhancements and project work through requirements definition, configuration, testing, and validation
• Follow structured change management and release practices to prioritize, test, and deploy updates
• Maintain clear and accurate Workday system and process documentation
• Support training and adoption efforts to ensure users are confident and effective in their use of Workday
