• Perform SQL coding and data analysis to support reporting, validation, troubleshooting, and reconciliation
• Run customer workshops, consulting sessions, and technical discussions, ensuring requirements and decisions are clearly documented
• Work closely with customers, vendors, and internal teams to support testing, issue resolution, and successful deployment
• Manage the end-to-end delivery of export and integration solutions to agreed timelines and quality standards
• Analyse export files, integration logs, API responses, and technical documentation to identify root causes and resolve issues
• Troubleshoot complex reporting, integration, XML, and API-related issues across multiple client environments
• Communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Provide mentorship, guidance, and knowledge sharing to consultants and team members across the practice
• Support continuous improvement by documenting solutions, technical standards, lessons learned, and best practices

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience leading Dayforce implementation projects in a technical capacity, with strong focus on reporting and integrations
• Strong expertise in Dayforce configuration, with a good understanding of how Payroll, WFM, HR, benefits, and organisational structures interact across modules
• Advanced experience with Dayforce Reporting & Analytics and Dayforce Integration Studio
• Hands-on experience with reporting, exports, imports, APIs, XML integrations, and data transformations
• Strong technical capability in:
• SQL development and data analysis
• XML / XSLT and structured data transformation
• troubleshooting and interpreting technical specifications from vendors and third parties
• root cause analysis of integration and data issues
• Ability to analyse integration failures, technical logs, and vendor feedback to determine root cause and define resolution steps
• Experience collaborating with external vendors, customers, and internal teams to deliver and validate high-quality integrations and workflows
• Strong ability to interpret business requirements and translate them into technical solutions within Dayforce
• Experience working with large, complex enterprise clients across multiple projects
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to simplify technical concepts into clear business language
