About The Position

General Motors is seeking a Senior Workday Functional Analyst to support and enhance its Workday environment, with expertise in Workday Core HCM, Offboarding, Terminations, and Business Process configuration. The role focuses on the employee separation lifecycle, including voluntary and involuntary terminations, offboarding activities, rescinds and corrections, security access, notifications, and downstream effects on HR and Payroll processes. The analyst partners with HR, Payroll, Benefits, Security, IT, and other teams to ensure employee exits are processed accurately, securely, and efficiently. The role is remote, but employees living within a specified radius of a GM hub will be expected to work from that location three times per week or at another frequency set by their manager. The position is not eligible for relocation benefits, and relocation costs are the selected candidate’s responsibility. GM does not provide immigration-related sponsorship for this role.
