BUSINESS PERFORMANCE MANAGER, SITE ENGAGEMENT & CULTURE

What you will do will

Let’s do this. Let’s change the world. In this vital role you will lead and execute strategies that strengthen employee engagement, culture, and the overall employee experience at the Amgen North Carolina (ANC) site.

Working closely with Human Resources, Corporate Affairs, site leadership, and cross-functional partners, you will translate employee insights and business priorities into meaningful initiatives that build connection, inclusion, accountability, and high performance.

• Establish tools, dashboards, metrics, and standardized processes for engagement, onboarding, and workforce initiatives, providing leadership with clear insights, risks, and actionable recommendations.
• Identify opportunities to simplify processes, improve organizational effectiveness, and strengthen employee experience across the site.
