  • Lead the planning and execution of HR strategic programs, including governance, project planning, change management, milestone tracking, and outcome measurement.
  • Drive cross-functional process improvement initiatives that simplify operations, strengthen controls, and identify opportunities for automation, system enhancements, and AI-enabled ways of working.
  • Lead global HR system enhancement programs that improve employee and manager experiences while supporting scalable business growth.
  • Manage HR integration activities for mergers and acquisitions, coordinating across HR workstream leaders, HR business partners, and key stakeholders throughout the integration lifecycle.
  • Oversee critical integration milestones, including pre-close planning, Day 1 readiness, HR systems, policies, processes, and post-close stabilization activities.
  • Partner with HR and M&A leadership teams to identify risks, dependencies, and integration priorities while driving successful execution of strategic objectives.
  • Prepare and deliver concise, executive-ready communications that provide visibility into program progress, risks, decisions, milestones, and business outcomes.


PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
  • Experience leading global HR programs, strategic initiatives, transformation efforts, and organizational change management.
  • Background in HR Centers of Excellence (COE), HR Business Partner (HRBP), HR Shared Services, or enterprise HR operations environments.
  • Experience supporting HR mergers and acquisitions integration activities, including pre-close planning, Day 1 readiness, post-close execution, and stabilization.
  • Strong business acumen with the ability to quickly understand new business models, organizational structures, and HR environments.
  • Experience leading large-scale global projects and driving stakeholder adoption through effective change management practices.
  • Demonstrated ability to build relationships, collaborate across functions, and influence stakeholders in a global matrixed organization.
  • Proven project management expertise, including the ability to prioritize effectively, structure complex challenges, and drive disciplined execution.
  • Experience working within multicultural, cross-functional, and globally distributed teams.
  • Experience facilitating process improvement workshops and translating recommendations into sustainable business outcomes.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications and AI-enabled tools to develop executive communications, project updates, and decision-support materials.
