Be a core contributor to a modern Jobs & Skills architecture—supporting consistent, well-documented job and skills taxonomy decisions that scale across the enterprise. You’ll help drive job code and job description updates, strengthen controls and auditability, and support operational processes that enable talent mobility, workforce planning, and career growth. Working across HR and the business, you’ll help manage downstream impacts to systems, reporting, and processes to ensure changes are implemented cleanly and consistently.
As an Associate within the Workforce Architecture team in Human Resources’ Talent & Employee Experience organization, you will support delivery of the Jobs & Skills transformation agenda.

Partnering closely with Delivery, Product, Data & Analytics, HR, and business teams, you will help translate Jobs & Skills capabilities into practical employee, manager, HR, and business experiences at enterprise scale.
