Job Description
We are looking for a Workday Program Manager to lead a reactivated enterprise implementation for a public-sector organization in Cleveland, Ohio. This Long-term Contract position calls for a hands-on leader who can connect business priorities with Workday capabilities, working closely with internal stakeholders and the implementation partner to keep delivery on track. The ideal candidate brings strong program leadership, broad functional knowledge across the Workday platform, and the confidence to guide decisions, assess proposed solutions, and support successful adoption throughout the engagement.
Responsibilities:
- Direct the day-to-day program leadership for the Workday implementation, coordinating milestones, dependencies, risks, and stakeholder expectations across the initiative.
- Collaborate with internal business teams and the external implementation partner to align solution design, delivery plans, and operational goals.
- Apply deep Workday knowledge to evaluate system options, recommend practical approaches, and ensure proposed configurations support business needs.
- Convert organizational requirements into realistic Workday-based solutions that balance functionality, timeline, and feasibility.
- Provide cross-functional support spanning multiple Workday areas rather than focusing on a single module, helping teams make informed decisions throughout the program.
- Review partner recommendations critically, raising questions when needed and ensuring the organization's interests are represented in key design and delivery discussions.
- Lead efforts related to user readiness by supporting training planning, change adoption activities, and communication with impacted teams.
- Advise stakeholders on how to use Workday effectively within a government environment, including expectations around platform limitations and best practices.
- Monitor overall program execution and help resolve issues that could affect scope, schedule, quality, or successful deployment.
