About the Team
Workday’s high-performance Global Commercial Operations (GCO) organization steers us toward our goal of growing to $10B and beyond in revenue. The Commercial Insights & Analytics group is a key player in fueling this growth by providing thought leadership and unique insights for driving our overall business.
About the Role
As a Senior Analyst on the Strategic Analytics team, you will serve as a high-impact thought leader, demonstrating an advanced aptitude for driving organizational action through sophisticated recommendations underpinned by data. You will own the analytical strategy for the full customer lifecycle, bridging the gap between New Business acquisition and Customer Base/Renewals. By connecting top-of-funnel activities to long-term retention and expansion metrics, you will provide the holistic insights necessary for data-driven decision-making across cross-functional Go-To-Market (GTM) and Commercial stakeholders.
In this senior-level capacity, you will partner with executive leaders on large-scale strategic projects, proactively uncovering whitespace opportunities and guiding internal teams on how to leverage data for future growth. Because our team supports pivotal, evolving initiatives, you must be comfortable navigating ambiguity; the scope of your impact is broad and adaptive, requiring you to pivot between deep-dive funnel analysis and emerging strategic priorities as the business scales. Our key partners include Sales and Marketing leadership, Customer Success & Renewals, Global Demand Management, Sales Strategy & Operations, and Business Intelligence.
ResponsibilitiesStrategic Insight Architecture: Develop structured, actionable frameworks for business consumption, moving beyond simple reporting to create scalable analytical assets.
Agile Problem Solving: Lead the execution of complex ad-hoc requests from cross-functional partners, translating shifting business needs into immediate, data-backed solutions.
Executive Storytelling: Visually represent data through curated, high-level storytelling that distills complex variables into clear business decisions for senior leadership.

Strategic Hypothesis Building: Take vague or evolving business questions and work cross-functionally to design data-driven hypotheses and actionable recommendations that drive systemic change.
Proactive Advisory: Independently conduct strategic analysis based on your own assessment of business trends, engaging stakeholders on how to proactively address risks or capitalize on opportunities.

Our Approach to Flexible Work
With Flex Work, we’re 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 "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.
