What Expel is looking for in applicants

Do you want to help equip managers with the data they need to enable their teams? Do you love building out new business processes? Do you want to build an incredible, self-service HRIS experience? We’re making the switch to Workday, and we need your help. Yeah, we're super jazzed about it too!

You love to dive in, figure things out, and roll out new features. Sure, it would be incredible if there were a few more “oohs” and “aahs” on a successful launch, but you’d settle for fewer WTFs when things didn’t go quite as planned.

Do you get an immense sense of pleasure when the gears silently click in place and everything just works? All of a sudden it’s these thrills you’re after, and these challenges you look forward to. In fact, the best moments of all may be when someone uses a capability you've built, and they exclaim, "OMG, I can't believe how easy that was!" You care about the people you're working with, and when you help to make them successful, you share their happiness.

If any of this resonates, then we’d love to hear from you.

What Expel can do for you

  • Provide the autonomy to define/prioritize problems & propose/implement solutions
  • Connect you with technical practitioners and business leaders as potential mentors
  • Ensure you get the support, mentoring, and feedback needed to make you successful

What you can do for Expel

  • Support the implementation of Workday; this includes new modules, new functions, and new tool integrations while adhering to the implementation schedule
  • Stay ahead of new product releases and ensure that they’ll be interoperable with our system integrations
  • Provide operational support by leading and facilitating training, and crafting end user process documentation
  • Troubleshoot and resolve system issues
  • Design and build new reports
  • Add more humor to the day to day (we try not to take ourselves too seriously)

What you should bring with you

  • 3+ years with Workday in an admin role
  • Excellent customer service skills and a service-oriented mindset
  • Ability to lead multiple projects (with often shifting priorities) and multi-task in a fast-paced environment
  • Ability to translate and shift communication styles between internal partners, including at the executive level, and external development resources to ensure clarity and consensus
  • Ability to consistently manage timelines, communicate delays, and clarify ambiguous requirements (in other words, you set & meet expectations like a pro)
  • A college degree or a compelling story
