About Zaid

Confirmed leader in HRIS transformation, with over 10 years of experience, including more than 7 years in managing large-scale digital HR transformation programs. Recognized end-to-end expertise of the Workday solution and its international deployment, coordination of cross-functional teams, and implementation of global, integrated, and scalable HR models, aligned with business and IT challenges.

My strengths:
- Global Workday Support: From strategy to operational deployment, in France and internationally, I master every step of a Workday project.
- Significant Project Experience: Responsible for the deployment of Workday Core HR for over 70,000 employees across several countries, as well as the Advanced Compensation module for 15,000 employees in France.
- Technical and Business Expertise: Expertise in Workday CORE HR, implementation of DSN, maintenance in operational condition of Payroll, and management of Time & Attendance (GTA) run.
- Rigor and Resilience: Managed a crisis situation on Workday Production following a poorly executed project. In close collaboration with HR, we rectified the situation while controlling costs.

Responsibilities and Leadership:
- HRIS IT Management: I ensured the optimal functioning of HR solutions not integrated into Workday (Talentsoft, UKG, Neeva, etc.), while managing a dedicated team.
- Management: With over 6 years of experience in managing teams, budgets, and supplier relationships, I know how to unite teams around ambitious goals.

I am ready to put my experience and expertise at the service of your Workday projects, to guarantee their success, while optimizing costs and strengthening user satisfaction.
