Establish and uphold global standards for employee well-being, safety, and duty of care while leading change management efforts to support growth and expansion.
Lead enterprise change management and transformation initiatives associated with organizational growth, scaling, and evolving operating models.
Provide regular insights and reporting to the CEO and Board regarding organizational health, leadership capability, succession readiness, culture, and workforce risk.
