[Hiring] Workday Financials Administrator @Onterris

Role Description

As a Workday Financials Administrator, you'll serve as a hands-on functional and technical expert responsible for the configuration, administration, and continuous improvement of Workday Financials. This role is not siloed to Workday; you'll partner with business leaders, end users, and the owners of adjacent enterprise applications to design end-to-end business processes.

Reporting to the Director, Workday & Financial Systems, this is a high-impact role suited for a confident communicator who can engage directly with end users, lead small to mid-sized projects independently, and coordinate across cross-functional teams.

To thrive in this role, you'll be comfortable taking ownership of the following responsibilities:

• Strategic Business Analysis & Advisory:
  • Serve as the Workday Financials subject matter expert, recommending Workday-native or cross-application solutions.
  • Contribute to roadmap and backlog prioritization, and track Workday releases to surface relevant enhancements.
• Workday Configuration & Security Administration:
  • Configure and maintain the tenant, including business processes, condition rules, notifications, and Projects modules.
  • Administer the security model: security groups, domain and business process policies, and audit/compliance monitoring.
  • Troubleshoot issues and provide post-production support.
• Project Leadership & Cross-Functional Coordination:
  • Lead small to mid-sized projects end to end, from scoping through delivery.
  • Work with Coupa, HighRadius, and Salesforce counterparts to decide where each process should live.
  • Support change management and develop training materials and SOPs.
• End User Engagement & Support:
  • Be the approachable point of contact for end users, translating technical concepts into plain language.
  • Resolve user pain points, analyze recurring incidents for root causes, and set support standards.
  • Mentor business users and functional analysts.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in a related field or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years administering Workday Financials in production, including Projects, business processes, security, and tenant configuration.
• Experience with release management, governance, and change control.
• Strong understanding of accounting principles, financial controls, and enterprise business processes.
• Ability to design processes that span Workday and other enterprise applications.
• Experience leading small projects across teams, with strong communication skills at all levels.
• Proficiency in MS Office; familiarity with Jira, Confluence, or Smartsheet.

Requirements

• Workday certification (Financials, Projects, Project Billing, Contracts to Cash, or Security), or equivalent hands-on experience.
• Professional services or project-based environment experience.
• ERP implementation or large-scale upgrade experience.
• Exposure to Coupa, HighRadius, or Salesforce.

Benefits

• Compensation range: $130,000 - $160,000 USD plus an annual bonus (5%), commensurate with experience, skills, and geographic location.
• Remote work flexibility, with a preference for candidates located near Irvine, CA; Denver, CO; Little Rock, AR; or Calgary, AB.
