• Execute mass security profile overrides via Enterprise Interface Builders (EIBs), auditing user permission provisioning pipelines, and leading security group re-alignments during corporate structural expansions.
• Lead internal platform security audits and compliance tracking, utilizing the Security Exception Audit, Change Log reports, and tracking matrixes to maintain alignment with internal controls, SOC, and GDPR mandates.

Preferred Qualifications

• Workday Certified Advanced Reporting or Workday Certified Financials Core certification.
• Prior consulting experience managing global security redesign tracks for multi-entity enterprise operations undergoing active cloud migrations or business unit uncouplings.
