Workday Technology Consulting Senior Manager

Role overview Advise clients on enterprise resource planning and technology transformation, with a focus on the strategy and ongoing operation of a cloud-based human resources and finance platform. The role guides clients through post-launch improvement, governance, and roadmap decisions rather than serving as a hands-on implementation position. It also includes team leadership and contributions to consulting methods and business development.

Responsibilities - Establish and oversee post-production operations, including incident and service request workflows, enhancement prioritization, and guidance for regular platform releases. - Lead technical work across integrations, reporting, security, extensions, and tenant administration, balancing operational stability with business improvement. - Partner with human resources, finance, and payroll leaders to shape product roadmaps around transformation goals and regulatory needs. - Recommend improvements to service management, release planning, monitoring, recovery, and data integrity processes. - Advise on integration and reporting design, security controls, audit readiness, tenant changes, and stakeholder communications. - Mentor colleagues, contribute to proposals and client growth, develop reusable delivery methods, and share practical thought leadership.

Requirements - At least seven years of hands-on experience across multiple technical areas of the platform, such as integrations, reporting, security, and tenant management. - At least five years leading technical workstreams across several of those areas. - Experience managing agile release processes, including roadmaps, backlogs, prioritization, sprint planning, and change control. - Knowledge of finance and human resources solutions, current platform capabilities, and the surrounding ecosystem. - A relevant technical certification in an area such as integration development, extensions, reporting, or security. - Strong analytical, written, and verbal communication skills, with the ability to turn complex issues into clear recommendations. - Ability to lead client engagements independently and collaboratively, and a bachelor’s degree.

Nice to have Consulting experience, work with higher education, nonprofit, or state and local government organizations, and involvement in proposal development or client growth. Periodic travel may be required.
