Workday Portfolio Senior Manager

The Senior Portfolio Manager will lead Workday implementations from beginning to end for Healthcare clients, acting as the face of the project. Responsibilities include communicating and addressing budget or resourcing constraints while ensuring customer satisfaction, project success, and profitability. Managers will become experts in Cognizant's Cynergy™ (Workday) Implementation Methodology, manage 1-2 large Workday product implementations, and participate in the sales cycle. They will ensure projects are properly planned and staffed, track issues and risks, communicate status, and escalate concerns. Additionally, they will provide guidance and mentoring to other consultants, ensure projects are delivered within budget, present change orders for scope, timeline, or cost adjustments, and present at Executive Steering Committee meetings. They will work with Workday's Delivery Assurance to ensure checkpoint compliance, assist in the transition of customers from professional services to product support, ensure the client can serve as a reference, and identify opportunities to position other service offerings.
