Financial Accounting Support Specialist
Your work days are brighter here.
At Workday, it all began with a conversation over breakfast. When our founders met at a sunny California diner, they came up with an idea to revolutionize the enterprise software market. And when we began to rise, one thing that really set us apart was our culture. A culture which was driven by our value of putting our people first. And ever since, the happiness, development, and contribution of every Workmate is central to who we are. Our Workmates believe a healthy employee-centric, collaborative culture is the essential mix of ingredients for success in business. That’s why we look after our people, communities and the planet while still being profitable. Feel encouraged to shine, however that manifests: you don’t need to hide who you are. You can feel the energy and the passion, it’s what makes us unique. Inspired to make a brighter work day for all and transform with us to the next stage of our growth journey? Bring your brightest version of you and have a brighter work day here.
About the Team
This is not “just another” customer service role. We are financials experts!
Workday’s Financials and Spend domains have a broad range of high-demand products, each packed with its own set of forward-thinking features to ensure our customers meet their everyday requirements. From Expenses to Business Assets, Procurement to Financial Accounting and much more, we are there to support our customers in all their financial needs. However, we do not stop there.
Behind every extraordinary product is an outstanding team. Our financials experts don’t just deliver customer service; we deliver the Workday experience – and, sure, that may sound like a pitch – but it really isn’t.
At Workday, both Employee and Customer happiness is fundamental.
About the Role
Variety is key! This opportunity will make use of your troubleshooting and critical thinking skills. We work with a mixture of customer use cases as we cover multiple financial modules globally.

Balancing multiple issues with contending priorities will become second nature. No two days are the same, so if you are looking for a fast paced, collaborative role where you will be persistently challenged while growing, learning and developing, this is a phenomenal fit.

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.
