Project Manager - Workday

Are you a seasoned Project Manager with a passion for delivering impactful HR and payroll transformation programs? We’re on the lookout for a dynamic project manager who thrives in the cloud ERP space and brings hands-on experience with SaaS ERP solutions (e.g., Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or Oracle Fusion). This role is primarily focused on Workday implementations, though the ideal candidate should be flexible and open to supporting other HCM and payroll SaaS solutions as needed, based on the project pipeline.

If you’ve successfully led HRIS and payroll implementations, particularly across Australia and India, and know the ins and outs of payroll systems, this is your chance to take charge of strategic programs that touch thousands of employees. Bring your energy, expertise, and leadership to an exciting role where technology meets transformation.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Own and drive the delivery of large-scale HRIS and payroll implementations, ensuring high-quality outcomes from initiation to go-live.
• Partner with senior stakeholders in HR, Payroll, IT, and Finance across countries to shape and deliver solutions that truly transform how people work.
• Manage all aspects of project execution — timelines, budgets, resources, risks, and vendor coordination — like a pro.
• Facilitate engaging design workshops, sprint planning, UAT sessions, and go-live cutovers, making sure every milestone is hit.
• Act as the bridge between tech and business, ensuring solutions align with local compliance and global strategy
• Bring your voice to the table in governance meetings, offering insight and foresight on delivery performance and continuous improvement.
  
  

Requirements

Who You Are:

• 10+ years of experience managing complex SaaS projects, with a strong focus on cloud-based ERP platforms.
• Hands-on experience with Workday (highly preferred), SuccessFactors, or Oracle Fusion.
• End-to-end implementation experience, with a strong understanding of compliance, configuration, and integration challenges.
• Knowledge of Australia and India payroll regulations and business processes is desirable
• Excellent communicator and stakeholder manager — you’re comfortable engaging C-suite, vendors, and delivery teams.
• Certified in PMP, PRINCE2, or Agile/Scrum methodologies (preferred).
• Confident navigating both Agile and Waterfall environments.
