Senior HRIS Finance Consultant (Workday)

Founded in Montreal in 2019, INNOOVA is a boutique consulting firm specializing in HR and finance transformation, and the only certified Workday partner based in Canada. We also work across Dayforce, UKG and SuccessFactors, with clients in healthcare, the public sector, finance and technology. At INNOOVA, you get the rigor of a recognized firm without the weight of large corporate structures.

Our Workday practice is growing, and we are adding a permanent senior voice to a mandate focused on Workday Financials as our client portfolio expands. You join an active, fast-moving mandate where your recommendations directly shape how the client's systems work, with a clear path toward an architect or lead role as you grow. We are looking for someone who advises, influences, and transforms, not just someone who configures.

Less bureaucracy, more impact.

• Lead requirements gathering and design workshops directly with client stakeholders, turning business needs into sound Workday configuration decisions.
  
• Design and configure one or more Workday Financials modules, such as FDM, GL, AP/AR, budgets, inventory, assets, procurement and expenses, with growing exposure to other modules as mandates evolve.
  
• Contribute to integration work connecting Workday to the client's wider systems ecosystem.
  
• Drive testing cycles and deployment of readiness, from unit testing through go-live support.
• Act as a trusted advisor to client teams by raising risks early and recommending process improvements, not just closing tickets. Help grow INNOOVA's Workday practice by sharing knowledge with junior consultants as the team expands.
