The Opportunity

Infinite Talent are working with a major public sector body that is undergoing a massive ERP transformation and needs a sharp Workday Finance Consultant to help drive it. This isn’t just a standard support gig; you will be sitting at the heart of a complex, large-scale shared services environment, acting as the go-to subject matter expert during a critical phase of implementation and optimisation. If you want a role where you can actually influence process design rather than just logging tickets, this is it.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • You will act as the trusted adviser across the full Workday Financials suite (GL, AP, AR, Expenses, Assets, and Projects).
  • On any given day, you will be leading workshops to map out business requirements, collaborating with technical partners to deliver robust system configurations, and tackling complex tier-3/4 incidents that require deep root-cause analysis.
  • It is a fast-paced mix of project delivery, continuous improvement, and high-level BAU support where your expertise will directly shape the way a massive government operation functions.

I’m looking for someone who has been there and done it from a finance perspective, even as an accountant but was taken in by the beauty of technology which drives all commercial decisions as a single source of truth.

What We Need From You

  • Workday Expertise: A proven track record in a configuration, implementation, or heavy support role specifically within Workday Financial Management.
  • Process Mindset: A deep, end-to-end understanding of finance operations inside highly complex, large-scale organisations.
  • Delivery Skills: Experience gathering requirements, designing functional specs, and navigating structured delivery environments (Agile/hybrid).
  • Communication: The ability to translate technical Workday language into clear solutions for non-technical stakeholders and senior leadership.
  • Someone that has been in and around shared services before, who can map GL, AP, AR, Expenses, Assets, and Projects.

Nice to Have (But Not Essential)

  • Experience within central government or massive public sector shared services.
  • Exposure to legacy systems like Oracle Suite or Fusion to help with the data migration mindset.
  • Skills around Workday integrations, reporting, or analytics.

There is a competitive basic salary plus generous benefits on offer. We are looking to schedule interviews as soon as possible. £48000 - £53000 / year
