As Adoption & Experience becomes a strategic growth lever for the Workday Practice, we need senior leaders who can shape how adoption is delivered at scale—not just on individual projects, but across regions, offerings, and client portfolios.

Sponsor and guide advanced use of Workday native adoption capabilities.

Establish and mature adoption measurement frameworks that can be reused across clients and industries.
Review adoption performance across client engagement, identifying systemic risks, improvement opportunities, and success patterns.
Coach and sponsor junior consultant; provide quality oversight on client engagements and strategic deliverables.
Lead internal initiatives that scale capability.
Play a visible role in sales, pursuits, and orals, helping position A&E as essential to Workday success.
