Your work days are brighter here. We’re 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’re shaping the future of work so teams can reach their potential and focus on what matters most. The minute you join, you’ll feel it. Not just in the products we build, but in how we show up for each other. Our culture is rooted in integrity, empathy, and shared enthusiasm. We’re in this together, tackling big challenges with bold ideas and genuine care. We look for curious minds and courageous collaborators who bring sun-drenched optimism and drive. Whether you're building smarter solutions, supporting customers, or creating a space where everyone belongs, you’ll do meaningful work with Workmates who’ve got your back. In return, we’ll give you the trust to take risks, the tools to grow, the skills to develop and the support of a company invested in you for the long haul. So, if you want to inspire a brighter work day for everyone, including yourself, you’ve found a match in Workday, and we hope to be a match for you too. About the Team Our oCHRO team helps CHROs and their organisations design Workday as a connected operational fabric, using a common process taxonomy and operational maps as our shared language with customers. In practice that means we architect the deterministic rails – operating models, business processes, configurations and controls – that must be 100% correct and auditable, and then deliberately place AI and agents on top where they can safely recommend, predict or automate without ever bypassing those rails. Our work is hands‑on with design closure, governance and decision‑making: we use structured frameworks to keep problem statements, guiding principles and strategic objectives tightly linked, and we focus on measuring outcomes rather than ticking feature checklists. You’ll join a senior group that works directly with senior customer stakeholders, pilots new AI‑enabled methods in EMEA, and treats Workday’s platform as “enterprise rails for AI agents” – balancing speed and innovation with the accountability and trust our customers expect. - About the Role In this Sr Principal Functional Consultant, oCHRO Architect role, you will be the senior HCM solution architect on Workday deployment programmes, reporting to the Sr Director of oCHRO Consulting Services.

You will guide cross‑functional design decisions using Workday’s guiding principles and business process taxonomy, facilitate structured decision‑making, and ensure that design recommendations are tightly aligned to customer problem statements, strategic objectives and value drivers. You will lead or support key design workshops, constructively challenge partners and customers where needed, and shape post‑go‑live roadmaps so that customers continue to realise value from the Workday platform. This role requires regular interaction with German‑speaking customer stakeholders across the full customer lifecycle.
