• Define and maintain the regional Workday roadmap in alignment with global objectives. Introduce innovation, automation, and process optimization opportunities across all modules.

Delivery Oversight:

• Lead platform enhancements, upgrades, and major initiatives. Oversee continuous improvement efforts including testing, change management, and release planning.

Governance & Compliance:

• Ensure data integrity, system governance, and compliance with regulatory standards. Partner with Risk, Legal, and IT teams to manage audit and security requirements.
• Lead a regional team of Workday specialists and manage a matrixed pool of global resources. Drive performance, engagement, and capability development across the group.

Stakeholder Engagement:

• Influence senior stakeholders across HR, Finance, and Technology. Serve as the face of the Workday platform for regional leaders and represent the U.S. in global steering forums.

Workday Community Engagement:

• Remain deeply connected to the Workday ecosystem — including Rising events, user groups, and product updates — to bring innovation and insights back to the organization.

Qualifications & Experience:

• 10+ years of experience in HR technology, including broad functional and technical experience across all core Workday modules
• Proven success leading Workday strategy and operations at an enterprise level
• Strong understanding of Workday architecture, integrations, and platform governance
• Experience managing large-scale deployments or transformations within complex, regulated environments (e.g. financial services, healthcare, global corporates)
• Executive presence and ability to communicate effectively with senior stakeholders and governance bodies
• Strong leadership and people management skills, with experience overseeing both direct and matrixed teams
• Strategic thinker with strong execution capability and analytical mindset

This is a unique opportunity to lead the Workday platform for the U.S. business of a global financial institution, with high visibility and direct impact on enterprise performance. The role offers scope to shape the technology landscape, strengthen compliance and governance, and influence global HR transformation efforts — all while working with a collaborative, future-focused leadership team.er HR technologies.
