About the Role

Your work will directly shape how acquired products, customers, teams, and operating models join Workday.

You bring a strategic, analytical, and collaborative approach to M&A, with experience in technology or SaaS environments. You understand go-to-market operations, customer lifecycle processes, revenue synergies, and cross-functional integration. You're comfortable working through ambiguity, advising senior leaders, and turning complex business problems into clear roadmaps.

In this role, you will find opportunities to create value, surface integration risks, define future-state operating models, and lead programs that protect the customer experience while speeding up business outcomes. You will also help build repeatable M&A playbooks and governance models that improve how Workday approaches future transactions.

Our Approach to Flexible Work

With Flex Work, were combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote 2home office2 roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.
