Job description

Huron is a global consultancy that collaborates with clients to drive strategic growth, ignite innovation and navigate constant change. Through a combination of strategy, expertise and creativity, we help clients accelerate operational, digital and cultural transformation, enabling the change they need to own their future. You’ve gained valuable technical expertise in the vibrant consulting arena. But you find yourself wondering what’s next on your career agenda. You want to continue developing your current skills…but you want to step it up a notch. Huron has your answer—our Technical Manager position.

Our tech managers perform a wide range of functions such as working in conjunction with other Huron and client team members—and leading the implementation life cycle (including planning, configuration, design, build, conversion, training, go‑live and post‑production support). It’s a highly‑dynamic position—with considerable visibility.

One trait that describes our ideal technical manager candidate is highly‑capable. We seek out team players who consistently execute well‑developed talents and embrace career growth.

Maybe your forte involves project management methodology…or maybe complex design document creation. Perhaps you excel in end‑user training development and execution…business process modification identification…or testing approaches for script development and execution. Whatever your unique talents, whatever your passion—in design, creation, and leadership—we’ve got you covered.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience supporting Workday implementations, with a focus on data conversion and/or reporting.
• Hands‑on experience in Workday HCM and/or Financials modules.
• Working knowledge of Workday reporting frameworks and data structures.
• Experience with data analysis, reconciliation, and validation across multiple data sources.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and attention to detail.
• Ability to work effectively in a fast‑paced, team‑based consulting environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate with both technical and functional stakeholders.
• Workday certifications in HCM, Financials, Reporting, or related areas.

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior consulting experience on Workday implementations.
• Experience supporting multiple Workday deployments or phases (e.g., initial implementation, optimization, or post‑production support).
