Workday Finance Change Manager
Workday Finance Change Lead | UK Remote | £600pd - £720 per day | 2-Year Contract | Outside IR35
I’m working with a large, international professional services group that is undertaking a greenfield Workday Finance implementation and is looking to appoint an experienced Workday Finance Change Lead to own the people and process change agenda across Finance.
This is a long-term, Outside IR35 contract to be a key figure in how Workday is successfully adopted.
The role:
- Lead the Finance change management strategy for a greenfield Workday Finance programme
- Partner closely with Finance leadership, the CFO, programme teams, and implementation partners
- Conduct detailed change impact assessments across Finance processes, roles, and ways of working
- Design and deliver targeted communications and engagement plans for Finance audiences
- Support the design and rollout of training and enablement for Finance users
- Build and manage a network of Finance change champions
- Track and report on readiness, adoption, and engagement metrics
- Support Finance teams through go-live, hypercare, and business-as-usual transition
- Act as a trusted adviser on behavioural and cultural change, not just system delivery
What we’re looking for:
- Proven experience as a Change Manager / Change Lead on a Workday Finance implementation
- Strong understanding of Finance processes and how Workday Finance impacts them
- Experience operating in technology-enabled Finance transformations
- Excellent stakeholder management skills, including engagement at CFO and senior Finance leadership level
- Confident driving adoption and embedded change, not just go-live
- Change certification (Prosci / ACMP etc.) desirable but not essential
Why this role?
- £700pd, Outside IR35
- 2-year programme with stability and long-term impact
- Largely remote-first, with purposeful travel only
- High-profile Workday Finance transformation with real visibility and influence
