What’s the brief? This is a Talent and Organisational Development role with a clear mandate: design, embed and continuously improve a technically robust talent management ecosystem across a large support centre environment.
You’ll own and deliver the bi-annual talent cycle - identifying critical roles, mapping successors, assessing readiness and building structured pathways to uplift capability across the organisation. This is a true mix of culture focused work and disciplined, data-informed talent architecture.
The role blends facilitation of structured talent forums, system enablement, succession depth and workforce insight. You’ll also lead a small team of coordinators, ensuring process integrity, rhythm and follow-through.
Is this your perfect match? This role suits a technically strong talent practitioner who understands how to build and run talent systems.
You’re confident facilitating calibration forums with senior leaders, translating workforce data into practical talent actions, and holding leaders accountable to succession and readiness planning. You’re comfortable operating without layers of BP infrastructure, and you know how to convert ambiguity into structured frameworks, governance and measurable uplift.
If you enjoy owning the mechanics of talent - cycles, pipelines, readiness metrics, system adoption - while still influencing at senior level, this will feel like home.
