Our Approach to Talent and Culture
Our people strategy is structured across four core
verticals: talent management, people analytics, total
rewards, and HR engagement. Together, these areas
support a cohesive framework that promotes continuous
learning, inclusive leadership, and career growth.
We prioritize hiring individuals who align with our
culture and long-term vision, and we invest in their
development from day one. Through targeted
onboarding, professional development programs, and
leadership training, we help employees reach their full
potential while building a deep bench of talent across
the organization.
Our People and Talent Function is led by the Chief
Human Resources O昀케cer, who reports directly to the
CEO. The Head of Talent oversees our global talent
management programs, including talent acquisition,
learning and development initiatives, career pathing
programs, as well as e昀昀orts to sustain a culture of
inclusion. The Human Resources team is responsible
for both our people strategy and functional execution,
and includes specialists across talent acquisition,
people analytics, talent management, employee
engagement, compensation, bene昀椀ts, and wellness.
