We’re looking for a Senior Organizational Effectiveness Manager to join our team and help shape our company’s talent and organizational strategy. In this role, you'll blend analytical thinking with a deep understanding of people dynamics to guide key initiatives like workforce planning, succession management, talent assessment, and org design. You’ll assess our company’s structure, culture, and performance to uncover opportunities for improvement and drive meaningful change. By analyzing organizational functions, capabilities, reporting structures, and design elements—such as span of control and specialization—you’ll help ensure we’re operating as efficiently and effectively as possible. You’ll also work closely with People Business Partners (PBPs) and the People Programs team to create targeted action plans for critical roles and talent segments, addressing risks and gaps proactively.
