Overview
The Talent & Workforce Strategy Partner serves as the enterprise level talent strategist for one or more large, complex Lines of Business within BrightSpring’s diverse $14B portfolio.

The Partner owns measurable workforce outcomes, leads enterprise-wide talent programs, and ensures the assigned LOB is competitively positioned in national labor markets.
Operating as the strategic advisor to executive leadership, the Partner blends market intelligence, workforce analytics, organizational design, and talent systems optimization to drive sustainable results.
