Job Description

The High-volume TA Internalization Project Manager will serve as the dedicated project lead responsible for planning, coordinating, and executing all workstreams associated with the RPO vendor optimization project. Experience managing transitions or TA restructuring efforts and will be comfortable navigating the organizational, contractual, operational, and people complexities that come with unwinding a deeply embedded vendor relationship while standing up a net-new internal function without disruption to hiring outcomes.

• Identify and document all systems, tools, platforms, and data the RPO vendor currently accesses or manages on client's behalf, and develop a plan for access transition, data retrieval, and continuity
• Collaborate with Legal, Procurement, and HR leadership to understand contractual terms governing the RPO relationship and ensure the separation timeline is aligned with contractual obligations and notice requirements
• Manage vendor relationship dynamics throughout the process with professionalism and in alignment with contractual and ethical obligations

High-volume TA Internalization

• Collaborate with the Customer Facing Talent Acquisition leader to define the operating model for the internal high-volume recruiting function, including team structure, roles, responsibilities, workflows, and performance standards
• Develop a phased internalization roadmap that sequences the transfer of recruiting responsibilities from the RPO to internal teams in a way that protects hiring continuity throughout the transition
• Identify gaps in internal capability, people, process, and technology, required to support high-volume recruiting at scale and work with leadership to develop plans to close those gaps
• Support the definition of internal recruiter capacity models, sourcing strategies, and operational workflows specific to high-volume role types
• Identify interdependencies between the RPO separation and the broader AI technology implementation program and surface them to both program leads to ensure coordination
• Support the development of change management and communication plans for internal stakeholders, HR Business Partners, and Hiring Managers impacted by the transition

Workstream & Stakeholder Management

• Build and maintain a master project plan covering all RPO internalization workstreams, with clear milestones, owners, dependencies, and status tracking
• Lead regular project meetings with the Customer Facing Talent Acquisition leader and Customer Support Talent Acquisition leader, providing structured updates on progress, decisions needed, and risks
• Coordinate across HR, Legal, Procurement, IT, Finance, and Operations stakeholders as required to execute the separation and internalization workstreams
• Maintain a decisions log, issues log, and risk register throughout the program lifecycle
