Workday HRIS Technical Advisor

WORKDAY HRIS TECHNICAL ADVISOR

Whelen Engineering | Expert-Level Role
Whelen Engineering is in the middle of a Workday implementation and is looking for a seasoned Workday expert who wants real influence, ownership, and strategic visibility.
This isn't a "keep the lights on" HRIS role. This is for someone who enjoys shaping systems, driving governance, and advising leadership on how workforce data and technology should work together.
If you like being the go-to Workday authority, this one's worth a conversation.

Why This Role Stands Out

Active Workday implementation
Ownership of configuration, security, and optimization
High visibility with HR, Payroll, Finance & IT
Strategic + hands-on balance
Trusted-advisor seat at the table

What They're Looking For

• Deep Workday HCM experience (Core + other modules)
• Strong HRIS leadership mindset
• Able to translate business needs into system solutions
• Confident partnering across HR, Payroll, Finance & IT
• Comfortable owning data integrity, security, and reporting

Nice-to-haves that stand out:

• Manufacturing or non-tech workforce exposure
• Vendor & integration experience
• ATS/LMS familiarity
• Strong analytics and reporting instincts

Perfect For Someone Who:

• Likes solving complex system problems
• Enjoys building clean, scalable processes
• Thinks beyond tickets and into strategy
• Wants ownership - not just tasks
• Is trusted to advise, not just execute

I'll walk through scope, influence, comp, and long-term impact on a quick call. Apply if you're a strong Workday pro ready for a meaningful role.
