In 2025, Starlight Children's Foundation Australia went live with Workday Financial Management as part of a unified Workday deployment. The go-live included Workday Finance, Payroll, Absence, Human Capital Management, Recruiting, Scheduling, and Time Tracking, delivered within a six month project timeline.
The Workday Financial Management deployment configured core financials alongside HCM and workforce modules to support end-to-end financial and HR workflows. Configuration emphasis followed an adopt and adjust principle, minimizing bespoke configurations, and the implementation used standard Workday functional flows for general ledger and subledger processing, procurement transaction routing, payroll posting, absence accruals, recruiting lifecycle management, scheduling, and time capture.
Data migration was explicitly business-led, the project trained business teams on Power Query and assigned them ownership for data extraction, transformation, and validation activities. Kainos served as the implementation partner, with implementation support from HC2 Consulting and assistance from Workday for testing and cutover coordination.
Operational coverage includes finance, HR, payroll, recruiting, and rostering functions across the organisation, aligning business processes to Workday workflows and centralizing transaction processing and personnel records. Governance changes included appointing business stream leads for each functional area, embedding data ownership into the business, and maintaining a condensed rollout cadence to meet the six month schedule.
The organisation described the go-live as a milestone for efficiency, transparency, and improved user experience tied to the new Workday platform. Workday Financial Management is now positioned within Starlight Children’s Foundation Australia’s ERP Financial environment to unify financial and HR operations under a single application.

In 2025 Starlight Children’s Foundation Australia selected and deployed Workday, going live with Workday Finance, Payroll, Absence, HR (HCM), Recruiting, Scheduling and Time Tracking to replace seven legacy systems. The deployment delivered Workday Recruiting as the new application for its Recruiting / Applicant Tracking System needs and was completed in a condensed six-month implementation timeline. Kainos served as the implementation partner, with IT consulting support from HC2 Consulting and engagement from Workday during the cutover.
The implementation was structured as a unified platform rollout across core HR and finance functions, consolidating disparate processes into a single Workday estate. Key execution details include business-led data migration—business teams were trained on Power Query and owned data transfer, validation and issue resolution—and appointment of business leaders as stream leads to drive configuration and adoption. The project emphasized using the Workday model out of the box (adopt and adjust) to avoid complex custom configurations.
Stated benefits from the go-live include improved efficiency, transparency and user experience. The team highlighted three operational learnings: empower business leaders as stream leads, make the business responsible for data migration, and limit custom configurations by leveraging the platform’s standard design.
