Product Specialist, Adaptive Planning Center of Excellence (Public Services, UKI) in City of Westminster

We are obsessed with making hard work pay off, for our people, our customers, and the world around us. As a Fortune 500 company and a leading AI platform for managing people, money, and agents, we are shaping the future of work so teams can reach their potential and focus on what matters most. Our culture is rooted in integrity, empathy, and shared enthusiasm. We look for curious minds and courageous collaborators who bring optimism and drive. Whether you are building smarter solutions, supporting customers, or creating a space where everyone belongs, you will do meaningful work with colleagues who have your back.

About the Team: You will join the Workday Adaptive Planning Center of Excellence (CoE), a specialized group of domain experts dedicated to redefining how organizations approach enterprise planning. Our team thrives on cross-functional synergy, partnering closely with other teams to architect solutions that matter. We pride ourselves on being "trusted advisors" rather than just vendors, maintaining a culture of knowledge-sharing, mentorship, and high-level execution across the UKI region.

As a Product Specialist within the Workday Adaptive Planning Center of Excellence (CoE), you will serve as a foundational expert within our field sales organization. This is a strategic role specifically focused on driving market success and adoption of Workday Adaptive Planning within the Public Services sector in the UKI region. You will use your domain expertise and consultative skills to initiate and support sales cycles for both prospective customers and existing Workday accounts. We are looking for a professional who understands the unique complexities of the Public Services landscape and can effectively position planning solutions to meet those specific needs.

With Flex Work, we are combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you will have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together.
