Critical and Systems Thinking

Critical and systems thinking are foundational to this role. You are expected to:
- Frame ambiguous business questions as testable problems, challenge assumptions, and test the quality and source of data before drawing conclusions.
- See HR, payroll, finance and business systems as one connected ecosystem, and design data models, governance and automation that hold up across it.
- Find root causes and patterns rather than treating symptoms, and anticipate the downstream effect of system, process and policy changes.
- Balance speed, accuracy, risk and confidentiality when deciding what to build, automate or retire, and explain the trade-offs clearly to executives.

Qualifications

Required

- Minimum of 8 years of related experience with a Bachelor's degree, or 6 years and a Master's degree, or equivalent experience.
- Experience across multiple HR functions (for example, HR Generalist, Center of Excellence, HR Operations).

- Proven experience building analytical solutions from scratch across the HR portfolio.
- Ability to translate business problems into data models and insight, with demonstrated critical and systems thinking.
- Experience working with sensitive and confidential data with high integrity.
- Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively with data to executive stakeholders.

Preferred

- Hands-on experience with Oracle Cloud HCM, including Workforce Compensation and reporting tools such as OTBI and BI Publisher; exposure to other HR systems (for example, Workday) is a plus.
- Experience in manufacturing, technology or operations-driven industries.
- Working knowledge of data structures and system integrations, and experience partnering with IT and data engineering teams.
- Experience leading analytics transformation and applying automation or AI to HR processes.
- Experience in a public-company SOX environment, workforce planning or position control with Finance, payroll systems (ADP, Unit4), multi-country privacy regimes (such as PDPA and CCPA), export-control data handling, or Python or R.

- High impact on enterprise decisions. Your insight reaches the CHRO, the CFO and senior leaders.
- A central role in modernizing HR through data, analytics and AI, including a Global HR AI/automation roadmap you shape.
