  • Data Reporting : Track and report on key organizational metrics (e.g., new hire, attrition, and engagement data) and respond to internal data requests.
  • Survey Leadership : Lead the end-to-end project management of our annual Staff Engagement Survey and Development Needs Survey, from design and launch through data processing, analysis, and presenting key insights for organizational reflection.
  • 3. Excellence in Core People Cycles, Systems, and Funds

    Drive execution excellence for critical, organization-wide annual cycles, administrative processes, and strategic staff funds.

  • Performance Management : Plan and coordinate the annual staff member performance review cycle timelines, draft global communications, and ensure all relevant resources for goal-setting, feedback, and development planning are current and accessible.

  • Staff Funds Administration : Lead the operational management of key staff funding mechanisms, including the Staff Connection Fund and the Individual Development Fund (for external professional development).
  • Budget Management : Serve as the budget manager for the People Circle, tracking expenses, managing vendor payments, and ensuring resourceful stewardship of funds allocated for learning and well-being initiatives.

  • Strong Project Management Acumen : Proven experience managing complex projects end-to-end, ideally in a global or remote context, with a high degree of organizational skill and attention to detail.
  • Data and Systems Management : Demonstrated experience working in Excel / Google Sheets, including a comfort with data analysis and the ability to translate data into actionable insights.
  • Exceptional organizational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities : Effectively juggle competing demands, maintain attention to detail, and ensure timely execution across a high volume of concurrent projects.
  • Proactive problem-solving and sound judgment : Anticipate challenges, identify potential risks early, and take initiative to address issues or seek input when needed.
  • Strategic mindset with strong critical thinking : Approach operational tasks with a big-picture perspective, using critical thinking to drive smarter decisions and more effective execution.
  • Strong Communication & Stakeholder Relations : Exceptional skills in both written communication and building trusting relationships across a global staff. Serve as a knowledgeable, approachable first point of contact for staff questions.
  • Ability to thrive in a distributed leadership model : Effectively balance personal ownership and high-judgment decision-making with actively seeking and integrating input from stakeholders across the global team.
  • Ambiguity Management : Demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguity, manage competing priorities, and work effectively within a dynamic and evolving global environment.
  • Operational Judgment : Strong ability to exercise independent judgment, anticipate challenges, and make sound decisions that balance organizational principles with operational efficiency.
