• Maintain a centralized, real-time view of resource management metrics (e.g., utilization and capacity), skills, and demand across the organization to inform decision-making.
• Implement systems and tools to support efficient resource planning, forecasting, and reporting.
• Establish fair and transparent processes for resourcing requests, prioritization, and conflict resolution.
• Champion PMG's values and talent philosophy, ensuring people have continuous access to high-quality opportunities that support long-term career development
