Workday Data & Reporting Specialist


Hybrid | IT | Professional Services
Our professional services client is in the midst of a major enterprise transformation - and data sits at the heart of it.
As they migrate from legacy systems to Workday Financial Management and HCM, they are looking for a Workday Data & Reporting Specialist to help unlock the full value of their data through high-quality reporting, analytics, and insight-driven decision-making.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys Workday reporting, works well with stakeholders across the business, and is keen to grow their technical capabilities as a Workday environment matures.

The role


As part of the Enterprise Solutions team, you'll work closely with business analysts, functional consultants, and stakeholders across Finance, HR, and Operations. Your primary focus will be on designing and delivering reporting solutions using Workday's native reporting tools, with particular emphasis on Financial Management and PSA.
This hybrid role combines strong reporting expertise with the opportunity to develop platform development skills in Workday Extend and Prism Analytics over time.

What you'll be doing


  • Designing, developing, and maintaining Workday reports, dashboards, and analytics solutions

  • Owning data quality and ensuring reporting accuracy, consistency, and governance

  • Creating intuitive dashboards and enabling self-service reporting for business users

  • Translating business requirements into meaningful, actionable insights

  • Delivering complex reporting across Financial Management and PSA (projects, resourcing, time & billing)

  • Supporting system migrations, upgrades, and ongoing optimisation

  • Developing skills in Workday Extend and Prism Analytics, building solutions that extend platform capability

What we're looking for


  • Hands-on experience with Workday reporting (Advanced, Composite, Matrix reports, dashboards)

  • Strong understanding of the Workday data model and calculated fields

  • Experience delivering Financial Management and/or PSA reporting

  • Confidence working directly with stakeholders and communicating complex data clearly

  • A proactive mindset with a focus on quality, innovation, and continuous improvement

Deep Extend or Prism experience is not required - enthusiasm to learn and grow in these areas is key.

Why this opportunity?


  • Play a key role in a high-profile Workday transformation

  • Influence reporting and analytics strategy from an early stage

  • Develop in-demand skills across reporting, analytics, and platform development

  • Hybrid working with flexibility

  • Strong commitment to learning, development, and career progression

If you're a Workday reporting professional looking to broaden your skillset and make a tangible impact, this role offers an exciting next step.
