We strive to create impactful content that analyzes emerging trends, influences industry perspectives, and positions Workday executives as trusted thought leaders. Our work directly impacts brand awareness and demand generation efforts across key markets. About the Role We are seeking an experienced Thought Leader to lead our efforts in the AP&J region.

  • Regional Strategy: Implement a comprehensive thought leadership content strategy for the AP&J region, aligned with our global strategy, campaign themes, and local market needs.
  • Content Development: Oversee the creation and localization of high-quality content, including articles, reports, blog posts, videos, and podcasts ensuring it is relevant and engaging for the AP&J audience.
  • Stakeholder Management: Build and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders across the region, including the sales, marketing, product, and communications teams.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with the global Thought Leadership team to ensure local content needs are understood at the planning stage and that there is alignment and consistency in messaging across the content strategy.

Our Approach to Flexible Work With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter. #J-18808-Ljbffr
