About The Company
A large ASX-listed healthcare organisation partway through a major Workday transformation of its HR systems.
Phase one covers Core HCM, Recruitment and Onboarding, and more modules are planned after go-live.
The programme has solid leadership behind it and takes testing seriously.
About The Role
You'll lead testing on the Workday implementation.
This is a hands-on role, so you'll write and execute tests yourself as well as run the test effort.
You'll work closely with programme leadership, HR process owners and the implementation partner across functional, integration and end-to-end testing.
There's scope to grow into test management as the programme moves into later phases.
Duties / Key Responsibilities
Plan and lead testing across Workday Core HCM, Recruitment and Onboarding
Write and execute functional and integration test scripts yourself
Build test strategies and scenarios covering functional, integration and end-to-end testing
Coordinate SIT and UAT with HR teams, business process owners and the implementation partner
Run defect triage and push issues through to resolution with the partner
Test integrations between Workday and connected systems such as payroll, identity and data platforms
Report test progress, coverage and risk clearly to programme leadership
Who You Are
You know Workday well enough to test it properly.
You understand how business processes, condition rules and security behave, and where a configuration change is likely to break something downstream.




You're still happy in the detail.
Leading the test effort doesn't mean stepping back from the work, and you'd rather run a test yourself than wait on someone else.
You're comfortable in a large organisation where decisions involve more than one group.
You can get busy HR people to commit to UAT and keep an implementation partner honest on defects.
You raise risk early and plainly.
If coverage is thin or a timeline doesn't stack up, you say so and bring a plan with it.
