This role will drive cross-functional collaboration, oversee data and systems readiness, and provide subject matter expertise across all HR domains, with a strong focus on Workday, payroll, and global benefits.

Lead end-to-end HR execution for M&A transactions, ensuring alignment with overall deal objectives and timelines.

Collaborate with Global HR, HRIS, Legal, Payroll, and Compensation & Benefits teams to execute integration and separation activities, including employment transfers, job mapping, Workday setup, payroll and benefits transitions, and retention planning.
Liaise with Seller/Buyer HR and internal teams to ensure timely sharing of employee data, pay and benefits details, and employment policies to support smooth execution of integration or separation plans.
Coordinate with IT, Finance, and other functions to manage cross-functional interdependencies during integration and separation.
Assess process and system impacts across payroll, timekeeping, compensation, and benefits; define and implement transition plans.
Develop and deliver change management and communications to ensure a smooth and positive employee experience.
Maintain strong internal networks across regions and functions to support integration or disentanglement requirements.
Apply strong analytical skills and attention to detail to identify issues, assess impacts, and propose workable solutions.
During periods of low M&A activity, lead or support high-impact HR initiatives in compensation, benefits, and HR operations.
