About the Role:

This isnt a traditional compliance-first HR role its a seat at the table for someone who can move fluidly between people data business strategy and the day-to-day realities of the teams they serve. Youll do more with data work predictively rather than just proactively and assess risk with an HR-first business-second mindset rather than defaulting to traditional compliance-focused risk assessments. Youll also treat AI as a core tool of the role using it to work faster and smarter yourself and partnering with business leaders to rethink how work gets done on their teams.
