Job description

This Is What Your Role Looks Like

At Basic-Fit, you are the dedicated functional expert and owner of the Workforce HRIS sub-domain: absence management, time tracking and scheduling. You understand both the intricate daily needs of local HR teams and the capabilities of our HRIS (Workday). Your mission is to work backward from complex business problems to define true end-to-end needs. By acting as the bridge between local needs and scalable system design, you ensure that employees effectively use HRIS technology to do their work smoothly.

Your Responsibilities

• Consultative Requirements Engineering: Practice the “five whys” to unpack requests from local HR and works councils. Separate the underlying business need from the assumed system solution (ensuring SMEs state their needs and constraints, not just a Workday setup) without alienating stakeholders.
• On-the-Ground Discovery: “Look over the shoulder” of local HR teams and end-users to catch operational edge cases early and deeply understand daily friction points.
• Solution Design & Workshops: Lead "Adopt-vs-adapt" workshops. Demonstrate standard/vanilla Workday functionalities first to drive standardization, deepening to specific country customizations when needed.
• Sub-domain Architectural Ownership: Maintain deep, hands‑on functional knowledge of the Workforce sub-domain – absence management, time tracking and scheduling. Define precise requirements and oversee implementation by internal, external, on‑ or offshore team members.
• Multi‑lever Problem Solving: Partner with the cross‑domain HRIS Product Manager and Tech Lead to align your functional solution choices with the broader system architecture.

Who Are You?

You are a relentless process thinker and persistent analytic goal‑getter. You do not just take orders; you challenge assumptions with consultative pushback to solve the real business problem. You possess a unique blend of strong operational empathy and IT affinity. You know how to guide country teams and works councils toward standard solutions while respecting critical local compliance and operational realities.

Additionally, We’re Looking For Someone Who Is

• Hands‑on HRIS architectural depth and functional capability. Workday experience is preferred.
• A track record of persistent, analytical goal‑getting and end‑to‑end HR process improvement.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, capable of delivering consultative pushback to diverse international teams and works councils.
• Experience with organizations with significant frontline personnel – e.g. retail or hospitality.
• Fluent English; Dutch, French, Spanish, or German is a plus.
