About The Position

The Vacancy We are always looking for exceptional individuals to join our multinational group of talented professionals and right now we are seeking to recruit a motivated and talented Workday Lead. In this role, you will serve as the primary owner, strategic leader, and expert for Megger’s global Workday platform. You will oversee all Workday-related initiatives, act as the central point of contact for Workday questions and enhancements, and ensure the system is optimized to meet global business needs. Rather than working behind the scenes, you will partner closely with HR and business leaders, guiding them through decisions, explaining implications, and ensuring system integrity. About Us At Megger, our mission is simple yet powerful: to help people live confidently and work safely by harnessing the energy that powers our world. We do this by designing and manufacturing high-quality, portable electrical test equipment that’s safe, reliable, and a breeze to use. Our customers are at the heart of everything we do. Their challenges fuel our innovation, and we’re proud to be a trusted partner, someone they can rely on to help them succeed. As a global leader, Megger operates in over 100 countries and employs more than 2,000 talented individuals worldwide. Our industry-leading 360° Customer Service goes far beyond products—it includes software, bespoke tools, on-site training, repairs, testing services, and expert consultancy. We’re your all-in-one destination for electrical testing solutions and we’d love for you to be part of the journey. Our UK headquarters is based in Kent, the beautiful Garden of England, offering stunning views of Dover Castle, the Kent coastline, and even glimpses of France on a clear day! Please note: We’re not in a position as a business to offer visa sponsorship, so we’re unable to consider applications from candidates who require it to work in the UK. Flexible Working at Megger We recognise that flexibility helps people thrive. That’s why we support flexible working for all employees and welcome requests from day one of employment. You can make up to two requests per 12-month period. Our Commitment to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion People are the heart of Megger, and their unique perspectives are key to our success. We're proud to be an equal opportunity employer, embracing diversity in all its forms. We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds and experiences and are committed to ensuring a fair, supportive recruitment process and workplace culture for everyone. Please note: We may close this vacancy early if we receive a high number of applications. If you're interested, don’t wait and send your application in today! At Megger, we believe in your potential — your ability to learn, grow and contribute in meaningful ways to our success as a leader in test, monitoring and data analytic solutions for the electrical power industry. We believe in giving you the opportunity, accountability, and visibility to do just that so why not see what opportunities we have available.
