This is a high-impact leadership role focused on building alignment between Finance and HR data by unifying them under a single, intuitive planning ecosystem. You will serve as the functional architect of a system that replaces "clunky" legacy workarounds with a user-centric experience. Your mission is to satisfy Finance’s need for precision while providing HR and Business teams with the "clutter-free" environment required to drive our strategy. This role isn't just about configuring software; it’s about creating a "Single Version of the Truth" that empowers our global labels (2K, Rockstar, Zynga) to make data-driven talent decisions. What You’ll Take On • Cross-Functional Diplomacy & Alignment: Act as the primary mediator between Finance (FP&A) and HR (Total Rewards/BPs) to define a unified data dictionary and process flow. • User-Centric Product Management: Design the Workday Adaptive interface to be intuitive for casual HR users while remaining robust for advanced business users. • Systems enhancement and expansion: Lead the strategic transition to enhance existing adaptive models while identifying future use cases to expand the product to support HR’s capabilities. • Strategic Scenario Modeling: Build native, real-time "What-If" modeling capabilities that allow leadership to see the immediate cost and talent impact of organizational decisions. • RACI Guardrail Management: Partner with the HR Enablement Lead to ensure Finance and HR operate within their core competencies preventing technical or data entry overlaps. • Continuous Iteration: Lead ongoing feedback sessions post-go-live to identify friction points and iterate on the tool monthly based on service design principles. What You Bring • Extensive Experience: 8+ years of relevant experience in Workforce Planning, with a proven track record of leading large-scale enterprise implementations. • Technical Mastery: Deep functional expertise in Workday Adaptive Planning; experience transitioning organizations from other systems (Oracle/Hyperion) is highly preferred. • Diplomatic Leadership: Exceptional ability to facilitate workshops among conflicting stakeholders and drive consensus across global Finance and HR teams. • Product Mindset: A strong "UX Champion" mentality with the ability to reject complex, multi-layered menus in favor of streamlined, intuitive interfaces. • Strategic Vision: Ability to translate high-level business strategies into technical requirements and actionable system models. • Educational Background: Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Management, Finance, or a related field. What We Offer You • Great Company Culture. Ranked as one of the most creative and innovative places to work, creativity, innovation, efficiency, diversity and philanthropy are among the core tenets of our organization and are integral drivers of our continued success. • Growth: As a global entertainment company, we pride ourselves on creating environments where employees are encouraged to be themselves, inquisitive, collaborative and to grow within and around the company. • Work Hard, Play Hard. Our employees bond, blow-off steam, and flex some creative muscles – through corporate boot camp classes, company parties, game release events, monthly socials, and team challenges. • Benefits. Medical (HSA & FSA), dental, vision, 401(k) with company match, employee stock purchase plan, commuter benefits, in-house wellness program, broad learning & development opportunities, a charitable giving platform with company match and more! • Perks. Fitness allowance, employee discount programs, free games & events and stocked pantries.
