    • Partner with HR and enterprise leaders to quantify workforce value, productivity, investment effectiveness and links to customer, operational and financial performance.
    • Build organizational data literacy and drive adoption of workforce intelligence, new tools and evidence-based ways of working across the enterprise.
    • Build and lead a world-class Workforce Intelligence team, developing talent and capabilities across workforce planning, data governance, advanced analytics and decision science.
