About April Emmert

My work experience includes over a decade of years supporting HR Systems from configuration to implementation and almost 20 years of reporting experience in different systems, including a homegrown HR platform. Additionally, over 10 years of Project Managment experience within HR, including several large M&A activities. My education and work experience have given me the opportunity to grow in my knowledge and skills, including my verbal and written communication, analytical, and problem-solving skills. They have also allowed me to excel in a team environment and as an individual, thrive under pressure, and meet all time-restricted deadlines. My experience and skills would be a benefit to any team. Currently, I am working as a Sr. HR Systems Analyst supporting Workday in the Advanced and Core Compensation Areas. I also have experience in Security, HCM Core, Benefits, Performance and Reporting within Workday. I interact with various internal stakeholders to gather and clarify requirements, develop and test solutions, manage expectations and continuously improve HR systems administration. I routinely communicate with various HR Services teams, HR Business Systems and Analysis configuration analysts, HR Data Analytics reporting analyst, HR IT Analysts, and HR Solution team to implement, support, and maintain HR systems data.
