Location: Remote (U.S.)
Contract Type: Independent Contractor (1099)
Project Duration: Approximately 8–12 weeks
Estimated Commitment: 15–25 hours per week (flexible)
Tellworks Logistics is a rapidly growing third-party logistics (3PL) company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, with distribution centers across the United States. As our organization continues to grow, we're investing in scalable HR technology that supports employee development, leadership growth, and long-term organizational success.
We have recently purchased several ADP Workforce Now Talent Management modules and have already completed much of the strategic planning internally. Our performance management philosophy, competency models, development plans, and succession planning framework have been designed—we're now looking for an experienced ADP Workforce Now consultant to configure and implement these solutions within the system.
This is a project-based consulting engagement and is not intended to become a permanent employment opportunity.
We're seeking an experienced ADP Workforce Now Implementation Consultant to lead the configuration, implementation, testing, and launch of multiple Talent Management modules, including:
- Performance Management
- Learning Management System (LMS)
- Succession Planning
- Career Development
- Additional Talent Management modules, as applicable
The successful consultant will translate our existing HR strategies into fully configured, scalable ADP Workforce Now solutions while providing recommendations based on ADP best practices and implementation experience.
The selected consultant will be responsible for delivering:
- Discovery sessions to review our existing documentation, workflows, and business requirements.
- Configuration of ADP Workforce Now Performance Management.
- Configuration of Learning Management System (LMS), including learning paths and development plans.
- Configuration of Succession Planning and Career Development modules.
- Development of performance review templates, competencies, goal-setting processes, and approval workflows.
- Recommendations for system optimization and ADP best practices.
- Testing and validation of all module configurations prior to launch.
- Administrator training and knowledge transfer sessions.
- Final production deployment.
- Optional post-launch support for agreed-upon period.
We're looking for a consultant who has successfully implemented these solutions—not someone whose experience is limited to day-to-day system administration.
Qualified candidates should have:
- Extensive hands-on experience implementing and configuring ADP Workforce Now.
- Demonstrated expertise with Performance Management, Learning Management, Succession Planning, and Career Development modules.
- Strong understanding of HR best practices, employee development, talent management, and organizational design.
- Experience translating business requirements into ADP Workforce Now configurations.
- Excellent communication, project management, and stakeholder facilitation skills.
- Ability to independently manage project deliverables while collaborating with designated Tellworks stakeholders throughout the engagement.
The ideal consultant has led multiple ADP Workforce Now Talent Management implementations and understands both the technical capabilities of ADP and the strategic HR processes behind them.
We're looking for someone who can confidently recommend best practices, identify opportunities for improvement, and build a scalable solution that aligns with our business objectives.
Experience working with growing, multi-site organizations is highly preferred.
This is an independent contractor (1099) consulting engagement.
The selected consultant will:
- Operate as an independent contractor.
- Determine the methods and approach used to complete the project while meeting agreed-upon milestones.
- Provide their own equipment, software, and workspace.
- Be responsible for their own taxes, insurance, and business expenses.
- Work remotely with scheduled project meetings as needed.
This engagement is focused solely on the successful implementation of ADP Workforce Now Talent Management modules and is not intended to transition into regular employment.
Please include:
- Resume or consulting profile.
- Summary of your ADP Workforce Now implementation experience.
- Which Talent Management modules you have personally configured.
- Examples of similar implementation projects.
- Estimated project approach and timeline.
- Preferred pricing structure (fixed-fee, milestone-based, or hourly).
- Two or more professional references from similar ADP Workforce Now implementation projects.
We look forward to partnering with an experienced ADP Workforce Now consultant who can help us successfully bring our Talent Management strategy to life.
