• Lead the execution of complex HR processes across large or highly matrixed business units and functions, translating HRBP direction into clear, actionable plans.
• Enable key HR sessions such as talent review, performance and development, and organization design reviews by preparing insight-driven pre-reads, contributing to discussions, and asking targeted questions that strengthen decision quality.
