About the Team
The Professional Services team, based in Poland, is an essential part of Workday's EMEA Services organisation. Our team is all about our customers — we build and deliver services that help them find greater value in their Workday investment. We ensure the successful implementation of Workday's HCM product solutions, partnering with some of the world's most prominent organisations to bring their vision to life.
We help frame the solution delivery by partnering closely with our consultants to implement and manage the delivery plan, ultimately helping our clients achieve rapid time to value. What makes our team special is the collaborative, customer-first culture we have built — every team member plays a meaningful role in shaping outcomes for our clients, and we support one another as we grow, learn, and deliver together.
About the Role
As a Project Manager, you will serve as a trusted guide throughout the Workday implementation journey. Using the Workday Launch Deployment Methodology, you will lead HCM implementations across the EMEA region, ensuring projects are delivered on time, within scope, and to the highest quality standards.
You will be the driving force behind successful project delivery, partnering with consultants and client teams to navigate challenges and resolve issues effectively. Your field experience will also be invaluable in providing internal recommendations to management on how to continuously improve the Workday Launch implementation methodology.
Responsibilities include:
- Leading end-to-end HCM implementations for EMEA clients, managing the full delivery lifecycle from planning through go-live
- Developing and managing comprehensive delivery plans, including project financials, risk and issue management, and resource planning
- Partnering with consultants and cross-functional teams to ensure alignment on solution delivery and client expectations
- Building and maintaining relationships with client executives, setting and managing expectations throughout the engagement
- Providing internal feedback and suggestions to management on improvements to the Workday Launch Deployment Methodology based on field experience

Our Approach to Flexible Work
With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.
