This is a high-visibility program transforming how our client manages projects, finances, resources, and people across our engineering and design business groups. These roles sit on the internal program team - not on the implementation partner side. You will own one or more workstreams end-to-end, driving alignment between business stakeholders, our system integrator, and our client's functional and executive leadership. You will be expected to manage ambiguity, surface issues early, and keep decisions moving on a program where the stakes are real and the timeline is firm. What You'll Do * Own the day-to-day delivery of one or more Workday workstreams - tracking progress, managing risks and issues, and holding the program team and SI accountable to plan. * Partner with functional leads (Finance, HR, Project Controls, Operations) to drive configuration decisions, facilitate workshops, and ensure business requirements are captured and ratified. * Maintain and manage program documentation - RAID logs, decision logs, status reports, meeting notes - with the discipline expected on an enterprise-scale deployment. * Prepare and present workstream status to program leadership, the Executive Steering Committee, and external stakeholders - surfacing issues honestly and with recommended paths forward. * Coordinate with Business Group Ambassadors and change management resources to ensure impacted teams are informed, engaged, and ready. * Manage dependencies across workstreams, flag cross-functional impacts, and escalate when progress is blocked. * Support testing cycles (SIT, UAT), cutover planning, and hypercare preparation within your workstream scope. * Contribute to a program culture where decisions get made, documented, and held - not endlessly relitigated., This is not a project coordinator role with a PM title. It is not a role where you run status meetings and pass information up. You will be expected to own your workstream, manage your stakeholders, and drive decisions - including uncomfortable ones. ## Related Videos - [Applying Agile Principles to Incident Management ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/101-applying-agile-principles-to-incident-management) - [Software Rollouts Are a People Problem: Meet the Nine Change Management Monsters](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2109-software-rollouts-are-a-people-problem-meet-the-nine-change-management-monsters) - [Destigmatizing the Workplace: Building Real Inclusion](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1492-destigmatizing-the-workplace-building-real-inclusion) - [Robots are coming into the wild!
