About You:

• 3+ years of hands-on experience as a Workday Financials analyst, consultant, or product owner, with direct ownership of Source-to-Pay processes (e.g., Procurement, Supplier Accounts, Expenses).
• Demonstrated experience configuring Workday Financials, including at least two of: Procurement, Supplier Accounts, Business Assets, Expenses, Banking & Settlement, or related FINS modules.
• You are deeply curious about how systems, data, and business processes work, and you naturally dig into configuration details rather than treating tools as black boxes.
• You are hungry to learn and a true lifelong learner—you actively seek out new Workday features, product updates, and best practices, and you enjoy sharing what you learn with others.
• You are a go-getter who takes ownership of problems end-to-end, follows through on commitments, and is comfortable driving work forward without needing constant direction.
• You are an experimenter who prototypes, tests, and iterates; you’re comfortable trying new approaches, measuring outcomes, and quickly adjusting based on what you learn.
• You are systems-minded and enjoy thinking in terms of processes, dependencies, and edge cases; you naturally anticipate downstream impacts before making changes in production.
• You are detail-oriented and disciplined, especially when it comes to documentation, testing, and change control, and you understand that small configuration changes can have big consequences.
• You are a strong collaborator and communicator, able to translate between business language and system behavior so that stakeholders understand both the “why” and the “how” of proposed solutions.
• You are calm under pressure and comfortable troubleshooting ambiguous or complex issues, methodically working through hypotheses until you find and fix the root cause.
• You are service-oriented, finding energy in helping Finance, HR, and business partners be successful through reliable systems, high-quality data, and thoughtful support.
• Curious about AI and automation and comfortable learning new tools (e.g., copilots, code assistants, or analytics platforms) to boost your impact even if you haven’t used them formally before.
• Confident in asking questions, running small experiments, and using data/AI-generated insights to challenge the status quo and propose better ways of working.
  
  

Preferred Skills:

• Workday Pro or Workday Financials certification, or equivalent depth in Workday Procurement, Suppliers, AP, and Expenses in a SaaS environment.
• Hands-on work with S2P integrations into Workday, including AP automation, banking, tax, vendor management, and T&E systems, using secure file/API patterns and robust reconciliation practices.
• Familiarity with Zip (or similar intake/sourcing tools) for request/sourcing workflows and Ironclad (or similar CLM platforms) for contract lifecycle management, and how both connect into Workday S2P.
• Experience operating in public or pre-IPO tech with SOX, procurement controls, and audit requirements, and translating those into Workday configuration, approvals, and segregation of duties.
• Proven track record of using data and dashboards (Workday reports, Prism/BI, or equivalent) to reduce invoice exceptions, shorten PO/invoice/payment cycle times, and improve supplier performance visibility.
• Experience partnering with Business Applications / Enterprise Systems and adjacent tools (Zip, Ironclad, T&E, ticketing) to design simple, scalable, and well-documented S2P workflows.
• Comfort working with large data sets in Excel or similar tools to validate configuration changes, reconcile data, and analyze trends.
• Has used AI tools to streamline Source to Pay work (e.g., generating Workday S2P test cases, drafting procurement/AP/expenses process documentation, summarizing invoice exception or supplier issue tickets), reducing manual effort and cycle time for releases and operational changes.
• Regularly leverages AI to improve S2P decision quality (e.g., quickly analyzing spend, supplier, or invoice exception patterns; comparing configuration or approval options; or pressure-testing proposed changes to match rules or workflows) and then validates results against Workday data, internal controls, and procurement/AP policies.
