The Role

This is a technical and analytical role for someone who thrives at the intersection of data and financial systems. You will own the day‑to‑day reliability of existing Accounting Center use cases while architecting solutions for changes in upstream product platforms. In this role, you will partner closely with our Finance, Product and Engineering teams to build and maintain robust, audit‑ready data pipelines.

How You’ll Make an Impact

  • Architect, build, and maintain high-volume data pipelines in Workday Prism Analytics, ingesting raw operational and transactional data from upstream product platforms.
  • Configure and manage Workday Accounting Center on a daily basis; from data ingestion to batch troubleshooting to successfully posting journals in the general ledger.
  • Partner with technical accountants and business controllers to translate complex accounting policies and transaction flows into configurable, well‑documented rules within Workday Accounting Center.
  • Leverage Workday Prism and reporting tools to build powerful dashboards, custom matrix reports, and Discovery Boards that provide business insights and support regulatory reporting.

What We’re Looking For

  • Hands‑on experience with Workday Prism Analytics and/or Workday Accounting Center within a complex, high‑transaction global enterprise environment.
  • Good understanding of fundamental accounting concepts, such as debits/credits, general ledger structure, subledger accounting, multi‑currency reporting, and double‑entry bookkeeping.
  • Experience with Workday integration technologies (EIBs, Studio, RaaS) to facilitate data ingestion into Prism and our wider financial ecosystem.
  • Exceptional troubleshooting skills with a deep interest in identifying data anomalies, reconciling complex transaction flows, and optimising system performance.
  • Strong awareness of internal controls and IT general controls (ITGC) regarding financial reporting systems.
  • Excellent verbal and written English communication skills, with the ability to bridge the gap between technical developers and non‑technical business accountants.
  • Experience with Workday Implementations and Cutover Life cycles is a plus.
  • SQL proficiency is a plus.
