We are hiring for a Workday Administrator who will focus on Payroll, Benefits & Talent: own configuration, data integrity, and support for Payroll, Benefits, and Performance/Talent.
This Administrator will partner closely with other Workday Administrators and the HCM Manager to translate approved architectural and business decisions into working Workday configuration, and to keep Nava's Workday environment reliable, audit-ready, and continuously improving. Success in either role requires more than responding to tickets, we're looking for people who proactively identify data quality issues, process gaps, and configuration or integration improvements within their area, and escalate changes that impact core architecture.
