  • Configure and optimize Dayforce Payroll using best practices and tools.
  • Partner with client stakeholders to align processes, reduce complexity, and ensure compliance.
  • Facilitate engaging client workshops that bring solutions to life.
  • Lead testing, payroll balancing, and cutover activities to ensure a smooth launch.
  • Provide post-go-live support and knowledge transfer, empowering clients to succeed long after the project wraps.
  • Share insights, mentor teammates, and contribute to building our collective Dayforce expertise.

Requirements

Do you have experience in Software implementation?, * 2+ years of Dayforce implementation experience in Payroll.

  • 3+ years of HCM systems experience in consulting, HRIS, or related fields.
  • Strong skills in business process mapping, testing, and system configuration.
  • Excellent communicator-able to lead workshops, build trust with clients, and explain complex concepts simply.
