    • Embed PwC Professional behaviours into everyday rituals—e.g., start‐of‐meeting reflections, “Wins & Learns” huddles, peer shout‐outs—so Inspire, Empower, Evolve, Champion, Build and Deliver become habit.
    • Deploy micro‐learning nudges (videos, quizzes, chatbots) that reinforce desired behaviours in the flow of work.

    • Integrate social, experiential and stretch‐assignment learning into onboarding, academies and leadership programmes.
    • Partner with Inclusion & Well‐being teams to tailor initiatives across cultures, generations and working styles; track adoption and behavioural shift.

  • Skills Data & Insights
    • Build dashboards that surface real‐time skills supply vs. demand, identifying gaps, future‐critical capabilities and reskilling ROI.
    • Translate analytics into evidence‐based recommendations for investment, vendor selection and programme optimization.
    • Report regularly to the People Leadership Team, highlighting risk areas and success stories.

  • Stakeholder Engagement & Change
    • Influence senior partners to shift from role‐based to skills‐based talent decisions; provide change narratives and toolkits. Equip managers with conversation guides to discuss skills growth and agile career moves.
    • Facilitate communities of practice that share success stories, peer coaching and emerging‐skills alerts.


Qualifications & Experience
  • 10+ years in Talent, Performance Management or HC Business Partnering roles within complex, matrixed organisations (professional services preferred).
  • Proven track record designing and implementing skills frameworks & culture initiatives at scale.
  • Strong grasp of HC analytics, dashboarding and data visualisation (e.g., Power BI, Tableau).
  • Fluency with HRIS / performance platforms; Experience with SkyHive is a plus.
  • Excellent facilitation, coaching and influencing skills; comfortable engaging senior leadership.
  • Bachelor’s degree in HR, Business, Organisational Psychology or related field; professional HR certification (CIPD, SHRM) desirable.

Personal Attributes
  • Systems thinker able to connect strategy, data and human‐centred design.
  • Continuous learner who experiments with emerging talent technologies and methodologies.
