Ready to do your best work? Join us.

You’ll partner directly with enterprise clients to architect FP&A solutions, optimize post-production environments, and solve complex modeling challenges across the Workday ecosystem.

What You’ll Do

• Lead & Architect: Own end-to-end client engagements—from discovery and sheet modeling to security and OfficeConnect setups—for global enterprise clients.
• Bridge the Data: Leverage Workday Core Reporting (Calculated Fields, Custom Reports, EIBs) to seamlessly pipeline data into Adaptive models.
• Be the Strategic Advisor: Conduct interactive client sessions, assess underlying business needs, and recommend future-proof FP&A architectures.
• Elevate the Team: Review deliverables, mentor rising consultants, and shape Kognitiv’s Adaptive practice with your best-practice insight.

What We’re Looking For

• 2+ years of hands-on experience in Workday Adaptive Planning (implementations, AMS support, or internal client-side leadership).
• Deep Adaptive Expertise in at least two core areas: Sheet/Structure Modeling, OfficeConnect/Reporting, Adaptive Security, or Native/Power of One Integrations.
• Workday Reporting Mastery: Solid grasp of Workday custom reports and how core financial/HCM data feeds into Adaptive.
• Proven Project Ownership: Comfortable running point on multiple concurrent client projects, phase X rollouts, and complex post-production initiatives without needing hand-holding.
