We are seeking an experienced Workday Payroll Consultant with a strong background in US and Canadian Payroll configuration and support. You will play a key role in implementing, optimizing, and supporting Workday Payroll solutions for our clients.

In this role, you will act as a trusted advisor—guiding clients through best practices, helping them enhance their existing configurations, and ensuring smooth, compliant payroll operations across their Workday landscape. This is an excellent opportunity for a detail-oriented, proactive professional who thrives on solving complex payroll challenges and delivering exceptional client outcomes.

  • Lead or support the deployment, configuration, and post-implementation support of Workday Payroll solutions, with a focus on US/Canadian Payroll.
  • Partner with client Payroll leads to analyze, enhance, and expand existing Payroll configurations and business processes.
  • Manage functional adjustments and configuration updates while evaluating downstream impacts across modules.
  • Support clients in troubleshooting payroll issues and optimizing system performance.
  • Collaborate closely with internal and client teams across Payroll, Absence, and Time Tracking to ensure seamless integrations and accurate processing.
  • Prioritize and respond to client cases, maintaining a high level of service delivery.

Must have Skills Required

  • Minimum 4 years of hands-on experience with Workday Payroll configuration, including US and Canadian Payroll.
  • Strong understanding of payroll processes, compliance, and reporting in the Canadian/US context.
  • Proven experience managing payroll processes using Strada Payroll systems
  • Proven ability to review, analyze, and refine existing payroll configurations and processes.
  • Proficiency in Workday modules related to Payroll, Absence, and Time Tracking.
  • Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and documentation skills.
  • Strong interpersonal and time management abilities with a proven record of meeting deliverables.
  • Exceptional attention to detail with the ability to see the broader business context.
  • Fluent in English

Other Qualifications/Skills that will be beneficial but not mandatory

  • College or University Degree in HR or Information Systems
  • Exposure to global payroll implementations beyond the US/Canada.
  • Familiarity with Workday reporting tools and business process configuration.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
