What You'll Do:

• Own day-to-day Workday HCM operations, with emphasis on Security, Succession Planning, Talent & Performance, and Reporting, including incidents, service requests, and minor-to-major enhancements. Along with Absence and Time Tracking experience will be an added advantage.
• Analyse and troubleshoot production issues involving security access, business process steps, talent processes, succession events, performance reviews, goals, and reporting; perform root-cause analysis and implement corrective actions.
• Configure and maintain Workday Security, including security groups, domain security policies, business process security policies, role assignments, user-based security, and role-based access controls, following least-privilege principles.
• Configure and support Succession Planning, including succession pools, succession plans, talent cards, candidate readiness, critical positions, and related security and reporting.
• Configure and support Talent & Performance processes, including goals, performance reviews, calibration, feedback, talent reviews, competencies, and development plans.
• Develop and maintain Workday reports and data outputs, including custom reports, advanced reports, matrix reports, composite reports, dashboards, discovery boards, calculated fields, and Report-as-a-Service (RaaS).
• Ensure secure access to sensitive talent, succession, and performance data; support periodic access reviews, segregation-of-duties assessments, and audit requests.
• Partner with product, platform, engineering, HR, and business teams throughout the delivery lifecycle, including requirements gathering, solution design, configuration, testing, deployment, documentation, and hyper-care.
• Support data validation, report reconciliation, downstream consumption, and integration troubleshooting as needed.
• Align with Blue Yonder core values: Empathy, Results, Relentless, and Teamwork
