• Use data and insights to inform decisions, improve outcomes, and drive accountability
• Identify root causes of organizational challenges and implement practical, sustainable solutions
• Partner cross-functionally with HR, operations, finance, and IT to execute key priorities

What Success Looks Like

• A fully optimized and user-friendly ADP platform supporting better workflows, reporting, and decision-making

• Proven success implementing or optimizing HCM systems (ADP strongly preferred)
• Strong business acumen with ability to connect people strategy to outcomes
• Experience driving organizational change, process improvement, and scaling functions
• Skilled at influencing senior leaders and driving results across teams
• Strong problem-solving skills with a focus on root cause analysis
