Working Student (m/f/d) – Workday Implementation Support (HR Transformation)

About the role:
We are implementing Workday as our core HR system in Germany, with a clear ambition to scale the solution globally in the future. To support this transformation, we are looking for a working student who want hands-on exposure to a real HR technology and change initiative. Not just observation, but execution. 
You will work directly with the Workday implementation lead and functional stream leads and contribute to system testing, change and communication activities, and end-user support materials.

Your Responsibilities:
You will support the implementation mainly across four areas:

Workday system testing (approx. 30%)
• Execute and adapt standard test cases to company-specific requirements
• Document test results, defects, and re-tests with high accuracy
• Support User Acceptance Testing across Core HCM, Advanced Compensation, Time & Absence, and Performance

Change & communication support (approx. 20%) 
• Co-create internal communication drafts (emails, intranet content, announcements)
• Support change activities on a transactional level with HR stakeholders
• Think beyond “what was asked” and flag improvement opportunities

Documentation & help content (approx. 25%) 
• Draft FAQs, how-to guides, and end-user support articles in English
• Structure content so it can be easily refined and scaled

General project support (approx. 25%) 
• Coordination, preparation, and structured follow-up on implementation topics
• Support data preparation and basic analysis where required

Essential Skills:
• Enrolled Bachelor’s or Master’s student in:• Economics, HR, Work & Organisational Psychology, Change Management, or related fields

• Ability to manage deadlines and escalate proactively and early when issues arise
• Structured, self-driven working style
• Available for min. 15 hours/ week

Beneficial Skills:
• Exposure to HRIS, ideally Workday (not required if you’re a digital native and fast learner)
• Experience with Microsoft 365, esp. Microsoft Excel; SharePoint knowledge is a plus
• Interest in HR transformation, systems, and organizational change

What we offer:
• Direct exposure to a Workday implementation in a robotics industry environment
• Practical experience in HR transformation and change work
• Close collaboration with the implementation lead and real responsibility from day one
• After 3 months, youare able to:• Independently adapt and execute test cases with minimal supervision

• Interact confidently with HR stakeholders on a transactional level
• Anticipate next steps instead of waiting for instructions
