About Eric Lamson

I partner with Talent Acquisition leaders and Workday Sales and Customer Success teams to solve two common problems: hiring critical roles quickly, and helping Workday customers close capacity gaps without adding unnecessary headcount or relying on expensive hourly consulting.On the recruiting side, we support corporate and specialized searches across industries, with a focus on speed, quality, and candidates who can step in and execute. Every placement comes with a 90-day guarantee.On the Workday side, we provide managed services built to be a disruptor to the traditional consulting model. Customers get a dedicated Workday Pro full-time (40 hours per week), backed by a specialist bench when needed. We execute hands-on work across reporting, integrations, calculated fields, BIRT and complex reporting, and ongoing optimization. Everything is delivered at a predictable flat monthly rate.
