Job Description

Join our team as a Senior Manager of Enterprise Performance & Talent. In this role, you will lead the planning, delivery, and continuous improvement of enterprise talent programs, starting with promotions. You will own the program from planning through execution and retrospective, translating policy into practical workflows, coordinating partners, managing dependencies, and ensuring people have the information and tools they need to act. You will also help shape how traditional talent programs evolve into an always-on performance process supported by AI and agents.

  • Demonstrated experience designing, delivering, or significantly improving talent-management programs in a complex organization
  • The ability to lead through influence and balance strategic thinking with detailed execution
  • A product and systems mindset, with the ability to understand user needs and connect processes, data, technology, and communications
  • Practical fluency with AI tools and a willingness to experiment, evaluate results, and improve how work gets done
  • Strong program leadership: the ability to turn ambiguity into a workable plan, manage dependencies, and follow through across multiple partners
  • Clear written communication and facilitation skills, including the ability to explain complex issues and recommend a path forward
  • Experience with promotions, performance management, talent reviews, or closely related enterprise people processes
