Contract Workday HCM Reporting Specialist

Brooksource; Milwaukee (WI); On-site; USD 96,000 - 152,000; Full time

Job summary

Brooksource in Milwaukee supports a client on a 3-month engagement focused on building Workday HCM reports. The contractor will develop Advanced, Matrix, and Composite reports, enable web services, and establish repeatable reporting standards for internal use.

The role emphasizes deep Workday HCM report development, effective dating, and integration-ready output. Strong communication with the internal HRIS team and developers is essential.

Qualifications

• 3+ years hands-on Workday HCM report writing — custom builds, not just running delivered reports — with depth across Advanced, Matrix, and Composite report types.
• Strong command of effective dating and how it behaves in reports consumed programmatically.
• Fluency with core HCM business objects and data sources — Worker, Position, Job Profile, Organization, Compensation, Absence — and the ability to traverse related business objects.
• Calculated field experience, including nested logic and date-based calculations.
• Experience enabling Workday reports as web services (RaaS) for integration consumption.
• Understanding of Workday HCM security and how role-based access shapes what a report returns.
• Able to work a backlog independently and produce volume with minimal oversight.

Responsibilities

• Build custom Workday HCM reports — Advanced, Matrix, and Composite — against a defined backlog.
• Enable reports as web services for downstream consumption by integration developers.
• Build and troubleshoot calculated fields, including nested and date-based logic.
• Partner with integration developers so report output, field structure, and performance hold up under automated consumption — not just on-screen viewing.
• Document a repeatable approach to report development: how to scope a request, how to select the right data source, when to use each report type, and naming and security conventions.
• Advise the internal team on that standard so reporting is built consistently across functional areas.
