Role Snapshot

Senior Functional Analyst III focused on UKG Workforce Management, owning Timekeeping configuration and supporting Advanced Scheduler within a large, enterprise healthcare environment. This role blends hands on configuration with governance, documentation, and change management.

Core Mission

Own and optimize UKG Timekeeping and scheduling capabilities while driving governance, documentation, and change management standards to support scalable workforce operations.

Key Responsibilities

Ideal Background

  • Direct experience with UKG WFM (Dimensions or Kronos), specifically Timekeeping
  • Experience supporting enterprise scale workforce systems
  • Strong exposure to governance, documentation, and change control
  • Healthcare or union environment experience is a plus
  • Comfortable operating across both business and technical teams

  • Timekeeping and Advanced Scheduler
  • HRIS and Payroll integrations
  • Excel for data analysis and reporting
  • ServiceNow or similar workflow tools
  • Enterprise governance and change management frameworks

Why This Role Stands Out

  • High visibility role supporting a critical workforce platform
