We are seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Workday Adaptive Planning Administrator to own the configuration, maintenance, and optimization of our financial planning and analysis (FP&A) platform. In this role, you will bridge the gap between our Finance and IT teams, ensuring that our Adaptive Planning environment is accurate, scalable, and fully aligned with our strategic forecasting goals.
You will be the primary point of contact for system updates, data integrations, user access, and reporting builds, helping our finance team move faster and make data-driven decisions.

- Data Integration & Quality: Oversee data pipelines between Workday Adaptive and core source systems (e.g., Workday ERP/HCM, Salesforce, NetSuite, or data warehouses). Monitor integration logs, troubleshoot data load failures, and ensure strict data integrity.
- Reporting & Analytics: Design, build, and maintain interactive dashboards, OfficeConnect reports, and HTML reports for executive leadership and department heads.
- User Support & Security: Manage user roles, security groups, and access permissions. Provide training and ongoing technical support to end-users across the finance and leadership teams.
- Continuous Improvement: Stay up-to-date with Workday Adaptive Planning releases and new features. Evaluate, test, and implement system enhancements to optimize performance and usability.
- Collaboration: Partner closely with FP&A, Accounting, HR, and IT teams to translate evolving business requirements into scalable system architecture.
Qualifications & Skills
- Experience: 2-4+ years of hands-on experience administering Workday Adaptive Planning (formerly Adaptive Insights).

- Experience working in a broader Workday ecosystem (Workday Financials or Workday HCM).
- Problem-Solving: Excellent analytical skills with a knack for troubleshooting data discrepancies and complex model logic.
- Communication: Ability to translate complex technical layouts into plain language for finance users, and vice versa.
Preferred Qualifications (Nice-to-Haves)
