    Talent Transformation Leader

    2019 – 2023

    I established and led the Talent Enablement team, a focused group dedicated to harnessing technology for HR challenges. The team, made up of up to three HR Business Analysts and an intern, was built on the three pillars of digital transformation, analytics, and HR performance improvement.

    I had the privilege of becoming the first recruiter across the EY network to complete the EY Tech MBA with Hult International Business School. This experience played a key role in honing my technical knowledge, which became instrumental in our digital transformation journey.

    My key responsibility was to guide the design and implementation of our HR digital transformation strategy. This included the development of an Azure-based app to centralize local data that were not included in SuccessFactors, which proved beneficial in enhancing data quality, security, and SuccessFactors usability for HR teams and employees.

    Through our collective efforts, we improved operational efficiency and realized significant cost savings. Process automation alone accounted for the equivalent workload of over 5 full-time employees each year.

    Throughout this journey, my leadership style has been defined by communication and coaching, nurturing a sense of psychological safety within the team. This approach, combined with the dynamic work we do, has not only led to professional growth for myself and my team, but also made a meaningful impact on EY Luxembourg’s HR landscape.

    Deputy Director of Human Resources

    2022 – 2023

    As the Deputy Director of HR at EY Luxembourg, my responsibilities extend beyond simply managing routine operations. Serving as the right-hand person to the HR Director, my role involves actively supporting the director in various strategic initiatives and in making crucial decisions that impact the entire organization.

    Leadership requests of an ad-hoc nature frequently come my way. These range from dealing with specific organizational challenges, brainstorming innovative HR solutions, to taking the lead on critical HR projects. Every day is different and provides an opportunity to broaden my understanding and influence across the many facets of HR.

    A key part of my role lies in mentoring and coaching. Nurturing the professional growth of our HR team leaders and their team members is both a privilege and a responsibility I deeply enjoy. I constantly strive to pass on my knowledge and experience, inspiring them to enhance their leadership skills and their overall performance.

    But being a deputy director isn’t just about strategic projects and people development; it’s also about being the problem-solver in chief. I am frequently called upon to troubleshoot issues across the HR spectrum, acting as a reliable pillar of support to our HR Director. Whether it’s resolving complex challenges or simplifying processes to improve efficiency, my goal remains the same: to ensure the smooth running of our HR operations and contribute to the success of our organization.
