Full Job Description
What you'll do
  • Own Talent strategy end to end: Translate Talent priorities into structured projects with clear owners, milestones, and outcomes, and step into any ambiguous, high-priority people problem across the portfolio.
  • Drive efficient growth: Lead headcount planning and org design work - spans of control, layer analysis, role architecture - and model workforce scenarios across FTE vs. AI workforce, location, and in-house vs. outsource.
  • Rebuild how we hire: Redesign and operationalize a recruiting model that produces better hires, faster, and at lower cost across every company in the portfolio.
  • Architect how we perform: Build goal-setting and performance programs that genuinely differentiate talent, using data to surface high performers and flight risks and systems that act on those signals.
  • Back the business with numbers: Serve as the analytical and operational backbone for board- and exec-level people reporting, and drive ROI analysis on talent programs, hiring spend, comp, and tools.


What we're looking for
  • You bring 5-8 years of experience, with a Tier 1 consulting background and meaningful time inside a high-growth operating company.
  • You take problems from ambiguous brief to shipped outcome, with a track record you can point to.
  • You are comfortable with data and can pull, model, and present workforce analytics without a team doing it for you.
  • You create structure where there isn't any, with strong project management instincts.
  • You operate with low ego and high output - you're here to execute, not to advise.
