• Establish workforce data standards and improve data quality across systems and processes.

• Create executive dashboards and recurring reporting that turn workforce data into clear business insights.

• Partner with Finance on headcount, organizational and people-cost reporting.

• Provide governance and oversight for global payroll controls, providers, issue resolution and compliance.

• Lead and develop a team spanning Rewards and People Operations.
