Workday Reporting Lead
Global | Workday Transformation
Own the Reporting Strategy Behind a New Workday Data Model
Take ownership of reporting and analytics at the heart of a major Workday transformation—ensuring a new governed data model is designed around how the business actually needs to understand and use its people data.
This isn't a reporting clean-up exercise. You'll be shaping the future-state reporting architecture alongside the data model itself, making sure reporting requirements are understood early, designed properly and built into the transformation rather than addressed after migration.
You'll operate at the intersection of HR, data, technology and analytics, working with senior stakeholders and technical delivery teams to turn complex business requirements into a reporting landscape that is accurate, trusted and genuinely useful.
What You'll Do
- Own the global reporting and analytics strategy across the new Workday data model.
- Lead the audit of the existing reporting landscape and define what should be retained, redesigned, replaced or retired.
- Shape future-state reporting requirements across HR, Talent Acquisition, Talent Management, Reward and wider business functions.
- Translate business requirements into clear technical specifications for SI and technical delivery teams.
- Work alongside the Migration Lead to identify reporting impacts before data model decisions become costly downstream issues.
- Own reporting-focused data validation, ensuring migrated data produces accurate and trustworthy business insight.
- Shape the right use of Workday reporting, Discovery Boards, Prism and wider people analytics platforms such as Visier.
What You'll Bring
- Strong Workday reporting and analytics experience within complex global environments.
- Proven experience redesigning reporting architecture alongside a Workday data model or major transformation.
- Deep understanding of Advanced Reporting, Report Writer, calculated fields, BIRT, Discovery Boards and Workday Prism.
- Strong understanding of Workday security and the relationship between role-based security, reporting access and sensitive people data.
- The ability to assess when to use standard Workday reporting, custom reporting, Discovery Boards, Prism or external analytics platforms.
- Confidence working with senior stakeholders and technical teams, with the experience to challenge requirements and validate what is being delivered.
Why Join?
- Take ownership of a critical part of a major global Workday transformation.
- Influence the reporting architecture before the new data model is locked in.
- Work across the full relationship between Workday, Prism and Visier rather than operating within a single reporting silo.
- Have genuine ownership of reporting quality, governance and the future employee-data insight landscape.
- Work at a strategic level without being removed from the detail that makes the transformation successful.
If you're a senior Workday Reporting and Analytics specialist who understands that great reporting starts with great data architecture, this is an opportunity to have genuine influence over a global transformation.
