Contingent Workforce Operations & Systems Analyst

About the team

Zillow's Contingent Workforce (CW) team enables the company to scale talent in a flexible, compliant, and efficient way. We partner closely with the Employee Service Center (ESC), Product, Talent Acquisition, Procurement, and business leaders to deliver a seamless experience for hiring managers and contingent workers.



Our team sits at the intersection of people, process, and systems, ensuring that the workflows and tools that power the contingent workforce program operate smoothly and evolve with the needs of the business.

About the role

As a Contingent Workforce Operations & Systems Analyst, you will support the day to day execution and continuous improvement of Zillow's Contingent Workforce Program as it pertains to operations and systems.

This role is the operational engine behind the CW Program: ensuring that workflows, escalations, documentation, and system configurations are managed effectively so the business can run smoothly. You will translate program needs into clear, actionable updates across our Vendor Management System (VMS), Beeline, and Workday (HRIS), ensuring workflows are scalable, consistent, and operating effectively across regions.

You'll play a key role in connecting program needs with system execution, helping improve how work gets done rather than executing individual transactions, while partnering closely with Tapfin (our Managed Service Provider) and cross-functional teams to deliver a high quality, compliant experience.

You Will 

• Support and improve contingent workforce workflows, identifying gaps and driving updates that enhance how processes operate across Beeline and Workday.
• Act as a Tier 2/3 escalation point for complex operational and system related issues, partnering with MSP, ESC, and Talent Tech to identify root causes and drive resolution through workflow adjustments, system updates, or cross-functional coordination.
• Operate within and help optimize our VMS (Beeline), ensuring workflows are functioning as intended and adapting to evolving business needs.
• Translate business requirements into clear inputs for system and workflow updates across Beeline and Workday, partnering with Product and other technical teams to implement changes.
• Monitor workflow performance and data integrity across the Beeline to Workday integration, proactively identifying issues and supporting improvements to maintain accuracy and consistency.
• Identify opportunities to streamline processes, reduce friction, and improve efficiency across the contingent worker lifecycle (onboarding, extensions, conversions, and offboarding).
• Support execution of operational initiatives such as vendor workflow updates, lifecycle process improvements, and compliance related changes.
• Assist with intake, prioritization, and tracking of operational work using tools such as Jira, ensuring visibility and timely follow-through.
• Maintain clear, audit ready process documentation and support communication to enable consistent execution across teams and regions.
• Partner with Contingent Workforce leadership, MSP, ESC, People Product, and cross-functional teams to ensure alignment between business needs, systems, and operational processes.
