Your work days are brighter here.

At Workday, it all began with a conversation over breakfast. When our founders met at a sunny California diner, they came up with an idea to revolutionize the enterprise software market. And when we began to rise, one thing that really set us apart was our culture. A culture which was driven by our value of putting our people first. And ever since, the happiness, development, and contribution of every Workmate is central to who we are. Our Workmates believe a healthy employee-centric, collaborative culture is the essential mix of ingredients for success in business. That’s why we look after our people, communities and the planet while still being profitable. Feel encouraged to shine, however that manifests: you don’t need to hide who you are. You can feel the energy and the passion, it’s what makes us unique. Inspired to make a brighter work day for all and transform with us to the next stage of our growth journey? Bring your brightest version of you and have a brighter work day here.

About the Team

The P&P (HR) Accelerator Team is a project-based team focused on delivering best-quality, high impact solutions and insights to business leaders that will help innovate, drive functional performance, accelerate decision making, and increase the speed of execution.

The Accelerator Team (AT for short) partners with Workday’s People & Purpose (P&P) functions on global, cross-functional projects that are central to P&P’s strategy.

We’re looking for candidates to join our team that are comfortable operating in a fast-paced, often ambiguous, project environment and have a bias for action. This individual needs to be collaborative, able to move with speed, and balance both strategic thinking and execution (we don’t create value with ideas we can’t deliver). This is an exciting opportunity for people who want to make a big impact, build and deliver creative solutions, and work on exciting projects.

About the Role

This role will:

• Structure work from scoping, to design, to execution, to handoffs

• Develop high quality deliverables and project assets

• Partner and own relationships with key stakeholders

• Connect project goals and deliverables to overall business needs

• Advise partners and stakeholders with data-driven insights

• Take ownership and accountability for project outcomes

• Drive project solutions from concept to completion, while actively rolling up your sleeves to develop presentations, analyses, and execute necessary tasks to contribute to successful delivery

The team will:

• Conduct thorough project discovery, design creative and high impact solutions, and execute with speed

• Advance the AT operating model and brand

• Operate as one team, in a collaborative manner with each other and with key stakeholders at Workday

• We will deliver the highest quality work. The team will instill discipline to projects we undertake in terms of resources allocated, timelines, project management, working with constituents, and consulting methodology.

• Lead, support and advise on strategy, problem solving, and execution of solutions that are core to P&P’s priority focus areas

• Measure success not by how well we think we did, but by the impact we make and how key stakeholders view us.

About You

We’re looking for individuals who have the following business qualifications:

• A passion for helping other succeed

• The ability to think systematically about strategic project impacts and employee experience

• Proven success in collaborating cross-functionally and managing relationships in fast-paced environments

• Energy for building meaningful connections across diverse stakeholder groups, and partnering to succeed as one team

It’s critical that you have the following qualifications:

• Must have 5-8 years prior experience in management consulting 

• Excellent verbal / written communication and relationship-building skills

• Highly organized, exceptional time management and task prioritization abilities

• Knowledge of HR, preferably in a Strategic or Project based role

• An ability to handle adversity and navigate ambiguous environments

• A desire to learn, grow, and operate as a generalist–we’re not looking to replace the world-class talent in our P&P Centers of Excellence (E.g. Compensation, Talent Experience, Talent Acquisition, etc.)

Our Approach to Flexible Work
 

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you’ll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.

Workday is an Equal Opportunity Employer including individuals with disabilities and protected veterans.
