We are working with a fantastic client in the education sector who is looking to hire a Workday HRIS Analyst to join their HR technology team. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys being close to HR operations, supporting end users, improving Workday processes, and acting as a trusted Workday subject matter expert across key HCM modules.
This role would suit someone with strong Workday Benefits knowledge, ideally from a Total Rewards or HR operations background, who also has broader exposure across other Workday HCM areas. You do not need to be a senior architect or deep technical expert, but you do need to have strong practical Workday knowledge, excellent communication skills, and the confidence to support, troubleshoot, train, and guide HR users.
The role
You will support and enhance Workday across a range of HCM modules, with Benefits being the key priority. You will work closely with HR teams and end users to resolve issues, improve processes, support system updates, create documentation, and ensure Workday is being used effectively across the organization.
Key responsibilities
They offer some amazing benefits which will be included on the call.
This is a great role for someone who wants to be more than just a Workday support resource. You will be close to the HR team, helping shape how Workday is used, improving processes, supporting key HR initiatives, and becoming a trusted Workday partner across the organization.
The client is highly engaged, moving quickly, and looking to interview strong candidates as soon as possible. They offer a collaborative environment, strong benefits, a stable long-term opportunity, and the chance to work across a broad Workday HCM landscape with Benefits as the main focus.
