Responsibilities Team Leadership & Management Lead and develop a small team responsible for work mapping, process redesign, and new ways of working across the People organization. Set clear goals, operating rhythms, and standards for the team, including diagnostics, pilots, and scaled rollouts. Coach and performance-manage team members, creating opportunities for growth, stretch assignments, and cross-functional exposure. People Transformation & Operating Effectiveness Lead initiatives that re-balance and realign work across the People organization, identifying what should be standardized, centralized, or redesigned to improve scale, clarity, and experience. Partner with COEs, People Partners, and Shared Services to determine where work should live over time and guide transitions, ensuring continuity, quality, and readiness. Support the evolution of the People operating model, focusing on how work actually gets done-not just how the org chart is drawn. Continuous Improvement, Standardization & Process Design Own end-to-end process redesign for priority People journeys (e.g., onboarding, job changes, performance, rewards) especially where work crosses teams, systems, or regions. Establish common standards for process design, documentation, and handoffs to reduce variability and enable smoother execution.

Identify friction points, inefficiencies, and avoidable demand, and lead simplification efforts with measurable impact on experience and throughput.

Coach and influence leaders and teams through periods of transition, helping them navigate trade-offs, clarify roles, and embed new ways of working. Qualifications Required Qualifications 10+ years of experience in People Operations, HR transformation, operational excellence, or related fields within complex, scaling organizations. Demonstrated experience leading process redesign, work transitions, shared-services enablement, or HR operating model changes. Strong working knowledge of People technology ecosystems, including Workday and ServiceNow, and familiarity with ATS platforms (e.g., iCIMS) and how workflows, data, and integrations support People processes. Familiarity with AI and automation concepts (e.g., workflow automation, knowledge management, agent assist, analytics) and their application within service delivery or operational environments. Proven systems thinker who can connect strategy, operations, experience, and technology into coherent, actionable roadmaps. Experience partnering closely with IT and digital teams to define requirements, evaluate solution options, and prioritize work across platforms. Excellent communication, facilitation, and storytelling skills, with the ability to synthesize complex operational and technical inputs and guide cross-functional decision-making. Proven ability to set direction, delegate effectively, and manage capacity across a team during periods of high change. Track record of building inclusive, high-trust team cultures that balance performance, growth, and well-being. Bachelor's degree required; advanced degree or equivalent experience preferred.
