One of the largest Consulting Partners were in need of Workday® contractors to work their new projects they had won across Europe, and Focus on WD were there to offer solutions.
Workday® Consulting Partner Seeking Long and Short Term Solutions
At the beginning of 2018, we were tasked with building the practice of one of the largest consulting partners on the planet. The client had begun by winning several large projects in Europe, but had a lack of Workday® professionals to work on them.

The Challenge
The Consulting Partner was in urgent need of contractors. They needed to prevent the disruption of multiple global Workday® roll-outs.
Focus on WD initially began by creating a detailed list of all their requirements and mapping out all known Workday® professionals on the market at that time. It was immediately recognised that they would need many contractors in the interim to cover the projects they had either on going, or were starting imminently, with a view to hire permanent Workday® professionals as a long-term solution.
The Solution
The Focus on WD team began sourcing a range of candidates to cover all types of Workday® positions and specialities for contract employment.
Once we had put out the immediate fire and created breathing space for the client and their projects, we began to initiate the next phase of the strategy. This was to ensure we filled the gaps with permanent members of Workday® professionals, guaranteeing longevity and the ability to plan further ahead for the client.
The Result
Throughout 2018 the client went on to make over 30 hires via Focus on WD in both the contract and permanent space. As well as converting contractors into permanent members of staff.
Our involvement in this case was crucial to one of the global power houses building and sustaining their new European Workday® practice. We were able to ensure many projects continued as usual, and were not affected by the potential disruption that a lack of resources could cause. Therefore, saving time and money for multiple Workday® End-Users.
