Your work days are brighter here.


Your work days are brighter here.

At Workday, it all began with a conversation over breakfast. When our founders met at a sunny California diner, they came up with an idea to revolutionize the enterprise software market. And when we began to rise, one thing that really set us apart was our culture. A culture which was driven by our value of putting our people first. And ever since, the happiness, development, and contribution of every Workmate is central to who we are. Our Workmates believe a healthy employee-centric, collaborative culture is the essential mix of ingredients for success in business. That’s why we look after our people, communities and the planet while still being profitable. Feel encouraged to shine, however that manifests: you don’t need to hide who you are. You can feel the energy and the passion, it's what makes us unique. Inspired to make a brighter work day for all and transform with us to the next stage of our growth journey? Bring your brightest version of you and have a brighter work day here.

At Workday, we value our candidates’ privacy and data security. Workday will never ask candidates to apply to jobs through websites that are not Workday Careers.

Please be aware of sites that may ask for you to input your data in connection with a job posting that appears to be from Workday but is not.

In addition, Workday will never ask candidates to pay a recruiting fee, or pay for consulting or coaching services, in order to apply for a job at Workday.

About The Team

At Workday, our values are more than just words – they're the foundation of our culture and the driving force behind our success. As part of the Legal & Regulatory Affairs team, you'll play a vital role in protecting Workday and upholding these values while supporting Workday's innovation and growth around the globe.

About The Role

Workday is seeking a highly-motivated Senior Legal Counsel to advise on regulatory matters around the world and to conduct corporate investigations. You will be a trusted legal advisor, ensuring compliance with laws, regulations, and Workday policies in a rapidly evolving global landscape. We seek a confident self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced environment.

Responsibilities:


* Provide sound legal advice and guidance: Evaluate complex situations, weigh competing interests, and make principled decisions to give legal advice in keeping with Workday's core values.
* Advise on regulatory matters: Analyze and counsel on a range of regulatory legal questions globally, with a focus on Europe and the Middle East. Please note that privacy regulations are handled primarily by a separate legal team.
* Collaborate effectively: Effectively gather information from employees across a range of functions and roles within Workday. Work cross-functionally with other parts of Legal, People & Purpose, Internal Audit, Ethics & Compliance and other relevant groups on risk evaluation, root cause analysis, and remediation planning.
* Communicate clearly: Share findings and advice persuasively, both orally and in writing.
* Conduct corporate investigations: Partner with a dedicated investigator to conduct thorough and impartial investigations into allegations of misconduct. Corporate investigations covers topics including but not limited to fraud, misuse of confidential information, conflicts of interest, bribery or corruption, and other violations of our Code of Conduct. This includes developing investigation plans, conducting witness interviews, analyzing evidence, and preparing reports. You will also advise on investigations performed by other teams, such as Employee Relations, that have a corporate investigation component.
* Maintain a positive attitude: Maintain a composed and "can do" attitude when faced with adversity, ambiguity, or unanticipated change. Create a mutually respectful tone in interviews and other challenging conversations.
* Promote the wider team: Has a proven track record of fostering a team culture based on trust, collaboration, mutual respect, shared understanding, and genuine care for the team.

Our Approach to Flexible Work

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.
