• Support data conversion and legacy system transition, helping clients understand how existing data and processes translate into Workday

• Partner closely with technical, reporting, and integration teams throughout the implementation lifecycle

• Provide ongoing guidance through testing, cutover, go-live, and post-go-live stabilization

Qualifications

• Extensive hands-on experience leading Workday Procure-to-Pay implementations

• Strong understanding of Grants-related financial processes

  • State or public-sector grants experience is a strong plus

• Exceptional communication skills—both written and verbal

• Experience in large, complex, multi-stakeholder environments

• Background working with public-sector, higher-education, or grant-funded organizations

• W2 Hourly rate: $106 - $140. Pay rates are based on experience, qualifications, and location, and are subject to change at any time.
