• Lead workforce audits, data validation, and lifecycle controls. Reconcile worker, manager, supplier, cost center, assignment, end-date, access, and status data; evaluate discrepancies and control gaps; coordinate remediation; maintain evidence; and recommend preventive actions for compliance, access, financial, and business-continuity risks.
• Lead assigned external workforce classification and workforce optimization initiatives, including staff-augmentation versus outsourced-service reviews and SOW-to-contingent-worker conversions. Assess opportunities, coordinate approvals, and dependencies, manage milestones and supplier actions, address implementation risks, and maintain governance documentation and stakeholder updates.
• Function as a program partner to the MSP, suppliers, Procurement/IPSS, Workforce Planning, HR Technology, Accounting & Finance, Legal, HR business partners, Security/Asset teams, and business leaders. Influence adoption of approved processes, facilitate cross-functional decisions, lead operational escalations, and provide subject-matter guidance on external workforce practices.
• Lead process improvement, automation, and technology-enablement initiatives for external workforce operations. Map current state, quantify gaps, identify root causes, design scalable future-state workflows and controls, build or partner on approved solutions, lead testing and adoption, and measure sustained improvements in cycle time, accuracy, risk, rework, and stakeholder effort.
• Develop and maintain SOPs, operational and executive reporting, dashboards, metrics, and program insights. Analyze workforce, supplier, audit, service-level, volume, aging, exception, spend, and data-quality trends; assess business impact; and present risks, root causes, options, and recommendations to program leaders and stakeholders.
