Location: London (4 days on-site/1 day WFH)Contract Length: Initial 6 months
A leading engineering business is seeking a delivery-focused Project Manager to lead a high priority Workday rollout. They are migrating from a legacy HR system to Workday as part of a strategic shift in their HR and ERP landscape. This critical project will involve delivering the integrations (with Kronos/UKG, AD/Entra ID, and the existing ERP), building out functionality, and ensuring robust testing, rollout and post-go-live support.
The Role:
You'll take full ownership of the next phase of delivery. The business needs someone who brings deep Workday knowledge, particularly around what's possible, and who thrives in fast-paced, change-driven environments.
Key Responsibilities:
- Drive the successful delivery of Workday (full functionality, integrations, rollout, testing)
- Ensuring hyper care/hyper support post deployment
- Define and document HR processes and integration requirements
- Lead internal HR working groups and workshops
- Manage key stakeholder relationships across HR, IT, and external suppliers
- Own and execute rollout and planning
- Report into department heads with regular stakeholder updates
What We're Looking For:
- A seasoned Project Manager with demonstrable Workday experience (ideally end-to-end)
- Experience in complex integrations (Workday + AD/Entra AD Kronos/UKG or similar)
- Comfortable operating in early-stage environments (building process, defining backlogs, setting standards)
- Excellent stakeholder management and third party management (Albida) skills
