They seek to synthesize quantitative and qualitative information sources to generate new scientific insights with systematic precision.

• Draft project plans and communication decks to align stakeholders, set expectations, and communicate progress and delivery.
• Define set of metrics and KPIs to measure success of HRBP and Recruiting efforts, and partner with Talent Analytics to automate and improve reporting on key HR efforts.
