Title - Global HR Systems Functional Lead (Business Analyst)
Duration - 6 months (With possible extension)
Location - Minneapolis, MN, Or Charolotte, NC (Hybrid - 3 Days)
Pay Range - $55 - $60/Hour. On W2
Position Summary
The Global HR Systems Functional Lead serves as the primary business process, and requirements lead for the BTIG international Workday implementation. This contractor will partner directly with HR, Payroll, Talent, Technology, and regional stakeholders across Europe and APAC to understand current-state processes, identify country-specific requirements, and translate business needs into configuration-ready requirements for Workday product consultants and technical teams.
This role is not responsible for primary system configuration. Instead, the Functional Lead will facilitate requirements workshops, document process and policy decisions, manage country-specific deltas, and ensure requirements are translated into clear functional specifications that can be executed by Workday configuration analysts, integration developers, and testing teams.
Success will be measured by the ability to drive decision-making, reduce ambiguity, accelerate requirements gathering, and deliver complete, actionable requirements that enable timely implementation.
Key Responsibilities:

- Identify differences between country-specific requirements and established Workday design standards.
- Conduct gap assessments and document business process, policy, and system impacts.
- Drive discussions to resolve ambiguity and obtain stakeholder decisions required for delivery.
Functional Analysis & Documentation
Translate business requirements into detailed functional specifications and configuration-ready requirements.
Create and maintain:
Business requirements documents
Process maps
User stories
Decision logs
Requirements traceability matrices
Country-specific delta documentation
Test scenarios and acceptance criteria
Ensure requirements are clearly understood by configuration analysts, integration teams, and testing resources.
Maintain complete traceability from business requirements through implementation and testing.
Global Stakeholder Leadership
- Serve as the primary liaison between regional business stakeholders and implementation teams.
- Coordinate discussions across Europe, APAC, and North America to achieve alignment on global processes.
- Facilitate working sessions, solution reviews, design reviews, and decision forums.
- Escalate unresolved decisions and risks to program leadership.
- Build consensus among stakeholders with competing business, regulatory, or operational needs.
Workstream Coordination
Coordinate requirements activities across multiple functional areas, including:
Core HCM
Recruiting
Onboarding
Talent
Compensation
Time and Absence
Payroll
Learning
Maintain and manage a centralized requirements backlog and country delta log.
Track open issues, risks, assumptions, and dependencies.
Ensure workstreams remain aligned to program milestones and implementation timelines.
Testing & Readiness Support
- Support development of testing strategies, test cases, and user acceptance testing scenarios.
- Validate that delivered solutions meet documented business requirements.
- Assist in triaging defects and determining root-cause ownership.
- Support deployment readiness activities and transition to production support teams.
Deliverables:
The contractor will be expected to produce the following deliverables throughout the engagement:
- Country requirements assessments
- Process flow documentation
- Functional requirements packages
- Configuration-ready user stories
- Country delta logs
- Decision logs
- Requirements traceability matrices

Required Experience
