JOB OVERVIEW:
The Workday Analyst - Payroll is a technical individual contributor responsible for supporting, maintaining, and improving the Workday Payroll module in a high-volume U.S. and Canada payroll environment. This role is primarily focused on Workday Payroll systems analysis, technical support, configuration support, reporting, testing, integrations, controls, data integrity, and process improvement.
This is not an entry-level payroll role and is not intended to be a transactional payroll analyst position. The position requires hands-on Workday Payroll module experience and the ability to analyze, diagnose, and resolve payroll system issues quickly, including issues that arise in real time during payroll processing cycles.
While the role is primarily Workday-focused, the individual will also act as a payroll analyst when needed. This includes supporting payroll audits, reconciliations, variance review, gross-to-net validation, exception reporting, payroll issue research, and correction of payroll-impacting issues across exempt and non-exempt employee populations.
