- Delivery oversight: Lead or support delivery of analytics and data initiatives (e.g., new dashboards, data pipelines, survey/listening analytics, AI/GenAI pilots), ensuring milestones, risks, and cross-team handoffs are actively managed.
- Stakeholder management: Act as a liaison across HR product owners, HR operations, data engineering, data science, risk/compliance, and technology teams; ensure crisp communication and closure on action items.
- Executive communications: Prepare briefing materials, updates, and narratives for senior leadership; synthesize data into insights, trade-offs, and recommendations to support decisions.
- Process improvement: Identify bottlenecks in intake, prioritization, data access, and delivery processes; implement lightweight operating improvements to increase throughput and predictability.
- Governance, privacy, and controls: Ensure adherence to data governance, employee data privacy expectations, model risk / AI governance (as applicable), and technology risk management requirements.
- Change management & adoption: Support enablement plans (training, comms, stakeholder readiness) to drive adoption of new analytics products and AI-enabled workflows.
- Team culture: Contribute to an inclusive, high-performing culture through communications, recognition, and team engagement.
