You will be responsible for the planning, management, and execution of Professional Services business development activities, but with a specific focus on the "Art of the Possible." You will use your experience in consulting and change management to help customers visualise a transformation powered by Workday Sana, Workday Extend, and Prism Analytics. You will not just be selling a deployment; you will be positioning a platform for agility. You will work closely with our ecosystem of Global Systems Integrators (SIs) to align on methodology and ensure our customers adopt a modern, data-driven approach to their business challenges. What you’ll do: Drive Strategic Value: Effectively position the value of Workday’s deployment methodology, moving the conversation beyond technical setup to business transformation, AI-driven efficiency, and data insights (Prism). Evangelise Innovation: Act as the subject matter expert on how Workday Extend and Workday Sana can solve unique business problems, distinguishing our platform from legacy competitors. Consultative Discovery: Conduct services discovery sessions focused on business outcomes, change readiness, and strategic goals rather than just functional requirements.
