You’ll be the strategic driving force of our staffing and forecasting efforts across all roles at Fluxon and you will partner closely with executives, leadership, finance, and talent teams.

We’re looking for someone who thrives in a highly ambiguous environment with an ability to lead, organize, and drive a highly cross-functional team while driving operational efficiencies. This role will report into our Program Management team.

Key responsibilities

• Build and maintain scalable workforce models and processes that inform staffing timelines, team capacity, and workforce planning.
• Develop tools, dashboards, and reports to provide visibility into headcounts, staffing trends, capacity, and hiring trends.
• Lead a cross functional team to drive alignment on business, hiring, and staffing priorities and ensure clear communication between all stakeholders.
• Partner with Finance and leadership to manage Fluxon’s staffing forecast to anticipate future staffing needs, capacity planning, and aligning with budgets.
• Drive continuous improvement and provide data-driven recommendations to finance, talent, department leads, and executives to the overall staffing process.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience managing complex program management, workforce planning, staffing, resource allocation or similar People/HR domains in a fast-paced consultancy, agency, or enterprise environment.
• Experience operating at both strategic and hands-on levels, building staffing processes, tools, and workflows from the ground up.
• Strong analytical and modeling skills with experience in capacity planning, forecasting, and identifying staffing trends.
• Excellent written and verbal communication and influencing skills, including experience aligning with senior leadership / executives across technical and non-technical functions.
• Experience defining or managing operational KPIs such as utilization, capacity, or hiring velocity.
• Excellent track record of making data-informed recommendations in environments with ambiguity and shifting priorities.
• Strong skills in risk management, conflict resolution, and making trade-off decisions in high-pressure settings.
• Experience in a high-growth or startup environment is preferred.
• Familiarity with workforce planning or staffing tools (e.g., Anaplan, Float, Workday Adaptive Planning, People.ai or similar).
