Your role in the team
- Big systems. Exciting challenges. Real impact. As a Senior People Systems Specialist, you'll own the security and governance of the Workday landscape that our people and processes run on globally. You'll decide who can access what, keep us audit-ready, and turn complex security concepts into practical, scalable solutions.
- You'll join our 30+ strong People Technology (Workday) team, working across functional, integrations and AI teams. You'll collaborate closely with product teams and CoEs covering Talent Acquisition, Talent, Total Rewards, People Operations Excellence and Data to build secure, scalable solutions for the whole organisation.
- Join the team that champions the employee experience at Delivery Hero.

With every initiative you support, you'll help build a positive culture that fuels innovation, teamwork, and a sense of belonging across our global organization.
- Own and continuously improve Workday security and governance across modules, countries and business areas, setting the standards and processes that keep our environment secure, scalable and compliant.
- Design, configure and maintain Workday security, including roles, security groups, domains, business process security and intersection security, applying least-privilege principles and challenging access requests that aren't justified.
- Run periodic access reviews, and identify and remediate excessive access, security risks, and control gaps before they become incidents or audit findings.
- Act as the Workday Security SME for internal and external audits, keeping controls, documentation and evidence audit-ready, and own security remediation and release impact assessments.
- Partner with Workday functional and technical teams, the Integrations team, HR, Information Security, Audit and Compliance to design secure solutions that use Workday's out-of-the-box capabilities, and set best practices for integrations, APIs and service accounts, with hands-on remediation where needed.
