Job Description
About this Opportunity: As a Strategic Workforce Transformation & Planning Lead, working with the Senior Manager, you’ll drive the development of our enterprise-wide Strategic Workforce Planning (SWP) operating model, using data, insight and innovative thinking to influence strategic decisions and support the Group’s long-term direction. This is a critical and highly visible role that blends operating model design, strategic planning, data-led insight and cross-functional collaboration.

* Advise senior leaders: Provide clear recommendations and constructive challenge to ExCo‑1 stakeholders on build/buy/partner strategies and location planning.
* Build capability at scale: Develop training and coaching, increasing confidence in SWP tooling, data standards and methodologies across the Group.
* Design & embed the framework: Roll out governance, standards and cadences (risk, data quality, change control) so workforce plans are reliable and decision‑ready.
