Dayforce Configuration Specialist
About the Role
I'm currently supporting a client who has just completed a large-scale Dayforce implementation and is now looking for experienced Dayforce Product Specialists to support the post-go-live stabilisation and optimisation phase. This is a 12-month contract, fully remote, paying £450 per day (outside IR35).
What they're looking for:
- Strong hands-on Dayforce (Ceridian) experience - this is not a PM/Programme role, they need true system specialists
- Proven track record of configuring Dayforce across modules (HR, Payroll, WFM, Benefits, Reporting)
- Experience building reports and working within Dayforce reporting tools
- Comfortable working in a live, integrated environment, managing end-to-end configuration changes
- Strong understanding of HRIS, Payroll, and Workforce Management processes
- Experience working across integrations (Finance, Benefits, etc.)
- Ability to support defect resolution, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement
- Familiar with change governance, testing, and release processes
- Experience in post-implementation or stabilisation programmes
- Knowledge of UK payroll legislation is highly desirable

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you'll be doing:
- Delivering configuration changes across the Dayforce platform
- Supporting system optimisation and continuous improvement initiatives
- Partnering with HR, Payroll, Finance, and Reward teams to translate requirements into system solutions
- Ensuring all changes are assessed for downstream impact and properly governed
