LHH Recruitment Solutions is seeking a HYBRID Workday Technology Lead in St. Louis, MO to support the next phase of its enterprise transformation. This role will serve as the strategic owner of the Workday Financials platform, partnering closely with Finance, Technology, and HR leadership to ensure the system scales effectively as the organization continues to grow. This position is ideal for someone who has been through a Workday implementation before and understands how to manage, stabilize, and optimize the platform post‑go‑live—especially in environments where processes are still being built or standardized.
