Product Director, Workforce Transitions

The Product Director, Workforce Transitions & Employee Experience is accountable for the strategy, performance, and evolution of a portfolio of products that shape critical employee moments across workforce transitions, employee experience, and core employee lifecycle transactions. This includes capabilities supporting onboarding, internal movement, job changes, employee relations, labor relations, exit management, and the digital front door, ensuring employees, managers, and HR teams can access connected, intuitive experiences across the moments that matter most. As the product line leader, this role defines the vision, sets priorities, and drives value realization across the domain, ensuring products and experiences are aligned to enterprise HR priorities, user needs, compliance requirements, and business outcomes. 

Operating in a player-coach model, the Director leads and develops Product Managers and analysts while also serving as the senior product leader for these capabilities. This role partners closely with HR, Global Services, Experience Design, Data, and Digital teams, and works in especially close partnership with the other product line leaders to connect journeys, orchestrate dependencies, and enable seamless experiences across pillars. Of all product domains, this role is among the most interconnected across the HR digital portfolio, requiring strong alignment across product leaders to ensure experiences, workflows, data, and handoffs come together in a coherent end-to-end employee journey. The Director ensures the domain is designed and managed as part of an integrated HR digital ecosystem, with clear handoffs, shared data foundations, and seamless experiences across the broader portfolio.
