Job description

FDJ United is on an exciting journey. As one of Europe’s leading betting and gaming groups, we’re growing fast - and our People Systems need to grow with us. We’re looking for an experienced People Systems Analyst with deep Workday expertise to join our team at a pivotal moment, as we navigate a Workday tenant merge and drive the next phase of our HCM roadmap. This isn’t a maintenance role. You’ll be a key player in shaping how Workday works across our business - configuring, improving, and scaling our environment to support thousands of employees across multiple markets.

You’ll partner closely with our Head of HRIS, the broader People team, and a distributed stakeholder group to deliver meaningful change.

If you’re someone who loves solving problems, challenges the status quo, and gets satisfaction from making systems work better for real people - this is the role for you., * Own the configuration and administration of Workday HCM - designing and building business processes, advising the People team, managers, and employees on best use of the system.

  • Support the post go-live optimisation of the Workday tenant merge, improving data integrity and process alignment across the combined environment.
  • Drive automation and process improvement, identifying opportunities to reduce manual effort and increase the efficiency of People Systems and workflows.
  • Partner with stakeholders across the business to gather requirements, analyse needs, and deliver practical, well-designed Workday solutions.
  • Manage the prioritisation and resolution of Workday fixes, enhancements, and day-to-day support queries in collaboration with the rest of the People Systems team.
  • Support bi-annual Workday releases - including impact assessment, sandbox testing, implementation, training, and communication to the business.
  • Champion system governance and security, maintaining appropriate Workday security configuration and ensuring data integrity across the platform.
  • Contribute to reporting capability, building and maintaining Workday reports to support People team insight and decision-making.
  • Support project delivery across Workday modules - from scoping and development through to testing, training, and go-live.
  • Ensure that you adhere to the Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) obligations for your role.
  • Identify and raise any non-compliance incidents promptly to your line manager.
  • Challenge processes, policies and projects that will negatively impact compliance within the Group.
  • Complete all mandatory compliance training assigned to you.
  • Reach out to the Compliance Teams if unsure of any of your compliance obligations or the requirements are unclear.

How you will be measured

  • Successful delivery of key milestones on the Workday roadmap, including the tenant merge optimisation.
  • Quality and timeliness of configuration changes, fixes, and project deliverables.
  • Reduction in manual processes through automation and system improvements
  • Stakeholder satisfaction - measured through feedback from the People team and business partners.
  • Compliance with Workday release management processes, including timely testing and sign-off.
  • Acting in line with FDJ UNITED values.
  • Successful completion of all relevant training and other compliance activities that support FDJ’s sustainable and responsible growth.

Requirements

Do you have experience in Workday?, * Minimum 2 years of hands-on Workday experience in a post go-live environment

  • Strong functional knowledge across Workday modules including HCM, Absence, Benefits, Talent, Learning, and Time Tracking
  • Solid understanding of Workday business process configuration, security, and reporting
  • Experience gathering and translating business requirements into effective Workday solutions
  • Comfortable managing multiple priorities and delivering to deadlines in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong communicator - able to engage confidently with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • A curious, improvement-focused mindset - you question the “as-is” and look for better ways of working
  • Experience supporting or delivering a Workday tenant merge or implementation
  • Familiarity with EIBs, calculated fields, or Workday integrations at a functional level
  • Understanding of HR processes and how they translate into system design
