- Work with the Head of People Technology, Data, and Innovation to build storytelling frameworks and executive briefings that distill complex datasets into intuitive, human-centered narratives.

- Proficiency interpreting dashboards, KPIs, and workforce analytics to extract meaningful insights.

- Exceptional communication skills, both visual and written, with experience producing executive-ready presentations.
