Engagement: Contract

Experience: 10+ years overall, including 5+ years in Workday HCM

Start: Immediate

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Workday HCM Functional Lead to architect and facilitate the execution of End-to-End (E2E) test scenarios for a UK Workday deployment. This role will act as the Workday HCM process and application SME, ensuring alignment between business requirements and test coverage. The resource will lead test alignment and execution workshops, monitor progress, and work closely with client testers to validate scenarios and resolve issues across HCM Core and advanced modules.

Key Responsibilities

  • Core HCM (worker data, organisation structures)
  • Compensation (salary plans, bonus, allowances)
  • Recruiting (job requisitions, candidate lifecycle)
  • Talent & Performance (goals, reviews, succession)
  • Help (HR case management, routing, SLAs, escalation workflows)
  • Journeys (employee experience flows such as onboarding, transitions, career development; validate personalised content and conditional logic for UK-specific policies)
  • Incorporate UK-specific compliance and regulatory requirements (GDPR, right-to-work checks, UK employment law).
  • Facilitate test alignment workshops with HR SMEs and Workstream Leads to confirm scope, dependencies, and acceptance criteria.
  • Lead test execution workshops, guiding client testers through Workday processes and ensuring accurate scenario execution.
  • Monitor test progress across SIT, UAT, and E2E cycles; track KPIs, identify bottlenecks, and escalate risks proactively.
  • Act as Workday SME for HCM processes, providing hands‑on support for issue resolution, defect reproduction, and process clarification.
  • Collaborate with Test Leads and Programme Management to maintain alignment on timelines, quality gates, and reporting.
  • Maintain audit‑ready documentation of test outcomes, traceability matrices, and sign‑off artefacts.

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years overall experience in HR technology or ERP systems with strong functional expertise.
  • 5+ years Workday HCM experience, including configuration knowledge and end‑to‑end process flows.
  • Deep understanding of UK HR processes and compliance (employment law, GDPR, statutory reporting).
  • Proven ability to design and validate E2E test scenarios and facilitate workshops with senior stakeholders.
  • Strong knowledge of Workday integrations (EIB, Studio, Core Connectors) and their impact on testing.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills; ability to lead in complex, fast‑paced programmes.

Preferred / Nice to Have

  • Experience with test management tools (Azure DevOps, Jira, ALM) and structured reporting dashboards.
  • Familiarity with test automation for Workday (e.g., Tosca) and ability to identify candidates for automation.
