Job Description
We are seeking a Lawson Supply Chain Functional Analyst to support Phoenix Children's Hospital during a Lawson-to-Workday migration. This is not a traditional data analyst role. The ideal candidate will have deep hands-on experience supporting and managing Lawson Supply Chain functionality, processes, and operations, while also leveraging data to drive decision-making and ensure operational readiness throughout the transition.
This individual will serve as a subject matter expert for Lawson Supply Chain and will support purchasing, inventory management, receiving, item master maintenance, par management, and other core supply chain workflows. The analyst will utilize Lawson Add-Ins, advanced queries, and reporting tools to troubleshoot issues, validate system data, support end users, and maintain the integrity of supply chain operations during the migration.
The role will partner closely with Supply Chain leadership, IT, and operational stakeholders to validate data conversions, support workflow testing, resolve functional issues, and ensure ordering, receiving, inventory, and replenishment processes are functioning properly within both Lawson and Workday environments.
While strong analytical skills are required, the primary focus of this position is Lawson system support, functional process management, and operational oversight. The analyst will perform item-level and location-level analysis, conduct utilization and purchasing reviews, support unit-of-measure standardization initiatives, and assist with inventory optimization efforts across the health system.
A critical responsibility of this role is supporting the Lawson Supply Chain month-end close process. The selected candidate must have prior experience supporting healthcare supply chain month-end close activities and be available to participate in the monthly close process on the morning of the 1st of each month. This work begins prior to 6:00 AM Arizona time and typically requires approximately two hours to complete, ensuring all inventory, purchasing, receiving, and supply chain transactions are accurately reconciled and closed.
The ideal candidate is highly detail-oriented, possesses deep Lawson Supply Chain functional expertise, understands the operational impacts of system configuration and data integrity, and can effectively communicate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders throughout the migration effort.

We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters.
