By enabling their team members to build and expand their Workday expertise like never before, we help them elevate skill sets, inspire their teams and empower their organization for self-reliance and success.

About The Role

Are you passionate about sharing leading practices and helping others avoid pitfalls? The Workday Support Model team works directly with customers through strategic advisory consulting services, targeted micro consulting engagements, and facilitated group discussions enabling customers to design and optimize their support teams, processes and governance models to set themselves up for ongoing success. As a trusted Workday Support Model Consultant, you will assist customers with strategic advice at various points throughout their lifecycle, whether it is starting off on the right foot during deployment, managing through expanding their Workday footprint or growth of their business via acquisition and mergers. Customers will benefit from your knowledge, based on your experience and that of the many customers we interact with, as you identify key considerations and provide tailored recommendations. With no one-size fits all playbook, you will effectively listen to a customer’s unique situations, validate leading practices and identify considerations not accounted for.

Our Approach to Flexible Work

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

Please be aware of sites that may ask you to input your data in connection with a job posting that appears to be from Workday but is not. In addition, Workday will never ask candidates to pay a recruiting fee, or pay for consulting or coaching services, in order to apply for a job at Workday.
