We are seeking experienced Operational Payroll Analysts with Workday experience to join our healthcare client's Payroll team. This is an excellent opportunity for a seasoned payroll professional who brings deep, hands-on experience working in Workday Payroll and understands how the system supports payroll operations behind the scenes.
What We're Looking For
The ideal candidate has substantial, hands-on experience using Workday Payroll in a production environment and can confidently navigate both payroll operations and the Workday platform.

- Experience processing payroll using Workday
- Understanding of Workday Payroll functionality and processes
- Ability to troubleshoot and understand how Workday Payroll operates behind the scenes
- Experience with payroll operations, including tax-related processes
- Background supporting Workday implementations, configuration, or backend processes is highly valued

Candidates whose background is primarily traditional payroll, with only limited exposure to Workday because their organization used the platform, will not be the best fit.
Why Consider This Opportunity?
- Work directly with a leading healthcare organization
- Opportunity to apply your Workday knowledge in a complex enterprise environment
- Potential for contract extension
- Potential future permanent opportunity as the organization expands
