For us, Employee Relations is not just about resolving concerns - it’s about much more. We believe in making sure everyone has a voice and feels valued and heard. We believe in having difficult conversations and debating with respect and care. We help our employees embrace and understand other perspectives, even when they disagree. We believe in acknowledging when experiences are not perfect and finding ways to learn from those experiences and restore trust. We are facilitators, coaches, culture-stewards, innovators, and problem-solvers who wake up every day knowing we make a difference for our employees.

- Evaluate, and define how Employee Relations will use AI and other technologies to drive scale, consistency, and impact, with right responsible data use
- Partner with senior business leaders and HRBPs to develop innovative ways to diagnose, share, and take action on insights related to Employee Relations cases, broader leadership issues, or organizational health.
