About The Role
About the Role: Workday is seeking a Developer Advocate to serve as the face of Workday to developers across the UKI and European markets. This role is for someone who brings authentic energy and enthusiasm to community building — someone who genuinely delights in connecting with people, sparking curiosity, and helping developers succeed. You will design hands-on learning experiences, present at conferences, create compelling technical demonstrations, and serve as the voice of developers back to our product teams. Reporting to the Head of Developer Relations, you will have regional ownership to shape developer engagement strategy across Europe while contributing to global Developer Relations initiatives.
Why This Role Matters: As Workday opens its platform to the world, we are doubling our developer community this year with ambitious growth plans beyond. This role is critical because it transforms how developers perceive and engage with Workday — from an enterprise platform to a vibrant, accessible ecosystem where developers of all backgrounds can build their careers. You won't just evangelize our platform; you will shape product direction by channeling developer feedback to engineering teams, identify and nurture the next generation of community leaders, and remove friction points that block developer success. Your authentic relationships and regional expertise will directly accelerate our path from a customer-focused platform to a truly open developer community.
What Makes This Role Unique: This is a high-impact opportunity to join at an inflection point in Workday's platform evolution. You'll have regional ownership with significant autonomy, work directly with product and platform leadership, and help shape the future of our developer ecosystem. We value authentic connections over polished marketing — your genuine passion for developers will be your superpower.

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.
At Workday, we are committed to providing an accessible and inclusive hiring experience where all candidates can fully demonstrate their skills. If you require assistance or an accommodation at any point, please email accommodations@workday.com.
