You will work closely with operational leaders and cross-functional stakeholders—including nursing, operations, HR, and IT—to design and implement future-state scheduling workflows, configure advanced scheduling features, and ensure alignment with timekeeping and pay rules. The ideal candidate is hands-on in configuration, experienced in both standard and advanced scheduling, and able to communicate effectively with both technical and clinical teams. This engagement offers the opportunity to make a significant impact on workforce management within a major health system, with strong potential for extension beyond the initial term.

• Reconfigure and optimize scheduling setup, including shift templates, pattern templates, schedule rules, schedule groups, and employee visibility periods
• Configure and support Advanced Scheduling functionality, including schedule generation, staffing targets/volume-driven scheduling, coverage planning, and rule-based optimization
• Support self-scheduling, open shift management, shift swaps, and request workflows
• Configure business structure, job/location assignments, and transfer logic as they relate to scheduling
• Ensure scheduling configuration aligns with timekeeping, pay rules, and accruals where they intersect
• Build and execute test scenarios; troubleshoot and resolve configuration issues and defects
• Partner with nursing, operations, HR, and IT stakeholders to validate changes and support adoption

WHAT YOU BRING

• 4+ years of hands-on UKG scheduling configuration experience, with recent work in UKG Pro WFM (Dimensions)
• Strong experience in both standard scheduling and Advanced Scheduling configuration
• Proven track record of workflow assessment and system reconfiguration, not only day-to-day support
• Strong technical understanding of schedule rules, patterns, staffing/coverage logic, and business structure
• Experience testing and validating configuration changes
• Ability to work independently and communicate clearly with both technical and clinical/operational audiences
• Healthcare or hospital scheduling experience (nursing units, float pools, 24/7 staffing, census or volume-based staffing) preferred
• Experience with Setup Data Manager (SDM), data import tools, or Boomi integrations preferred
• Familiarity with UKG timekeeping, attendance, and accruals preferred
• UKG Pro WFM certification(s) preferred
• Prior consulting or implementation/optimization project experience preferred
