The role

We’re looking for you to join our HelloFresh People Team as a (Senior) People Systems Functional Manager (Senior) Manager (Workday) in our Berlin Global Headquarters.

In this versatile role, you will be responsible for the successful operation of our People systems and tools, specifically Workday HCM, Absence Management and Compensation. You’ll be focused on the systems enhancements, continuous improvements, functionality changes and strategic projects that will drive efficiencies throughout our People Function. You’ll bring your Workday functional capabilities to enable our People Function to be more effective each day. You’ll use your expert consulting skills to work with stakeholders at all levels - inside and outside the People function - finding creative solutions to enhance the employee experience and ways of working for everyone at HelloFresh. 

In this role you’ll be primarily focused on building, enhancing and maintaining Workday functional solutions in HCM, Absence Management and Compensation through continuous live-environment improvements, with opportunities to also support large, strategic projects such as new module and country rollouts. We’re live on Workday in the US and Germany, and are rolling out Workday to all our remaining country markets with a targeted go-live in September 2023, so we’ll have a very ambitious and exciting post-go-live product backlog and roadmap for you to work with.

Above all, we’re looking for people who will make HelloFresh better. We believe there are many different ways of developing skills and we love diverse experiences! So even if you don’t “tick all the boxes” but think you’d thrive in this role, we would really like to learn more about you.

What you’ll bring
