Bringing together Group talent data and turning it into clear insight, focusing on the "so what" so leaders can make confident, data-led decisions about talent and succession.
Bringing new ideas to the table through external research and close relationships with our businesses, leading initiatives that improve what it feels like to work here.
Partnering with HR Business Partners and our business units to deliver our Group HR strategy, and managing key third-party relationships to ensure consistency and value.
