Global People Operations Jobs (NOW HIRING)

We are seeking a transformational executive to serve as VP, Global People Enablement (Consultant) to define and architect the future state of our global People infrastructure, operating model, and technology ecosystem.

The ideal candidate brings deep Workday expertise, a world-class People Operations background, and a track record of leading enterprise HR transformations across complex, global organizations.

This is a high-impact role focused on building durable systems, capabilities, and governance that will enable the People function - and the business - to scale effectively.

• Develop and articulate a multi-year vision for People Enablement, integrating operations, rewards, and technology into a unified global framework.

• Collaborate with the Sr. Director and broader leadership team to further modernize compensation and benefits operations infrastructure, strengthening governance, compliance, and global consistency while preserving the integrity of existing programs.
• Ensure global pay programs, benefits administration, equity processes, and compliance frameworks remain operationally sound, scalable, and aligned with business growth objectives.
• Champion the seamless integration and optimization of rewards systems within Workday and related technology platforms, enhancing efficiency and data integrity across Total Rewards.

• Serve as executive owner of Workday, our system of record.
• Develop a long-term Workday roadmap, including module optimization, integrations, reporting, and governance.
• Oversee configuration strategy, release management, data integrity, and system architecture.
• Ensure effective integration between Workday and adjacent platforms (ATS, payroll, equity, case management, analytics tools).
• Drive automation and AI-forward solutions where appropriate.

• Lead enterprise-wide change initiatives related to process redesign and system modernization.
• Build and mentor high-performing teams across operations, rewards infrastructure, and People tech.
• Partner closely with Finance, IT, Legal, and executive stakeholders to align transformation priorities with business strategy.
• Establish governance frameworks for People data, compliance, and risk management.
