Internship – Technology – DayNine: Benefits of HR Cloud Solution – Utrecht

Job description

Transform the world around you by unleashing your skills and crafting the next generation of technology. Put your expertise to work as part of the world’s largest independent technology services provider and lead the way as a trendsetter in your digital field. We’re ready if you are.

Your impact

Accenture is a leading global professional services company, providing a broad range of services and solutions in strategy, digital, consulting, technology and operations. Combining unmatched experience and specialized skills across more than 40 industries and all business functions, Accenture works at the intersection of business and technology to help clients improve their performance and create sustainable value for their stakeholders. With approximately 401,000 people serving clients in more than 120 countries, Accenture drives innovation to improve the way the world works and lives.

We see a lot of our clients move to cloud solutions. Looking at HR, we see a high demand on the HR (and Finance) SAAS solution called Workday. There is a lot of information out there that informs clients why to choose such a HR cloud solution as Workday. We also explain clients why to use Workday. So, before implementing this software the expectations are set. Next to that we also experience the role or HR is changing. This role is especially changing when Workday has been implemented. Besides, there must be a lot of theoretical information about the HR role nowadays where we don’t be aware of.

You will have the unique opportunity to research what the actual benefits are of such a HR cloud solution implementation, after Workday has been implemented. Based on our experience/assumptions most benefits will be met (however we don’t know for sure) and the role of HR is indeed changing, but if it’s changing to being a more strategic business partner, we don’t know. That’s up to you to investigate.

Once a project has been completed, our consultants generally move on to the next project with a support team that remains at the client side. So, we don’t know exactly what the outcome was of the tool that we have implemented. By using your analytical skills, you will assess the operational efficiencies Workday has brought in and the impact on the client’s organization.

Place in the organization

Accenture Technology help clients harness the power of technology and industry insights to innovate, grow, and improve. By implementing the latest digital methodologies and design thinking, staying ahead of the digital curve is our business, and driving disruption is what we do.
