Senior HRIS Analyst

Senior HRIS Analyst, Workday Payroll, Time Tracking & Absence
Tulsa, OK | Full time | Office/hybrid

I'm recruiting for a Tulsa client that needs someone to own Workday Payroll, Time Tracking, and Absence, not just support it. You'll be the subject matter expert and the first call when something breaks. When Workday ships a release, you'll know what it changes before anyone asks.

The work

You'll configure and improve the system, build the reports and dashboards Payroll actually uses, and lead testing for releases, integrations, and regulatory updates, including UAT. You'll sit between Payroll, HR, Benefits, Finance, and IT, turning what they need into working solutions. You'll also set the standards for how Payroll, Time, and Absence get configured and documented, mentor junior analysts, and help shape the HR technology roadmap. Expect occasional visits to production areas, so PPE comes with the job.

Who fits

You have a bachelor's in HR, Information Systems, Business, Accounting, Finance, or a related field. Equivalent experience counts. You have 5+ years in HRIS with real payroll and workforce management exposure, and ideally 3+ years hands-on in Workday Payroll, Time Tracking, or Absence. You've been through implementations, upgrades, and release cycles. You know business process configuration, calculated fields, reporting, and security. You understand federal, state, and local payroll compliance. You can explain a technical fix to a payroll manager without losing them.

What they offer

Competitive pay, paid time off and holidays, health insurance with HSA, a premium 401(k), tuition reimbursement, and profit sharing or an annual incentive bonus.

If payroll already treats you as the person who fixes the system, you're probably underused where you are. Why not find out what that's worth in Tulsa?
