  • Facilitate and deliver training, ensuring smooth integration with broader HR systems.
  • Support the rollout of new processes, tools, and operating models across multiple countries.
Stakeholder Engagement and Vendor Management
  • Work closely with TA teams, HR Business Partners, and external partners across jurisdictions to support effective project delivery including managing ad-hoc niche / confidential recruitment when needed.
  • Monitoring agency usage and assisting in managing relationships with third-party vendors including assessing service delivery and ensuring compliance with SLAs and governance requirements.
