HR Data Quality & AI Readiness Project Manager
About The Position
At GE Vernova, we are accelerating the energy transition by helping the world electrify and decarbonize. As our business evolves, we are reimagining how HR works — building the data foundation that lets us run on insight, automation, and AI at scale. We are seeking an HR Data Quality & AI Readiness Project Manager to lead the work that makes that foundation real. AI is only as good as the data beneath it. Before HR can move fast with agents and advanced analytics, our HR data has to be reliable, well understood, and structured for the decisions and tools that depend on it. This role owns that work. This is hands-on, foundational work. The person in this role partners with every HR Center of Expertise (COE) to find and fix the data quality issues that block trusted reporting and AI readiness, and connects the dots between how data is configured and how it is used downstream. It is the right role for someone who is energized by getting data right — not by writing policy about it.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree required; advanced degree in Human Resources, Business, Law, Organizational Development, Industrial Relations, Technology, or a related field preferred - or equivalent knowledge or experience.
- Significant years of experience in HR transformation, employee relations, governance, compliance, organizational effectiveness, change management, or enterprise program management.
- Strong understanding of AI governance, responsible technology use, privacy, or data-related risk considerations.
Nice To Haves
- Experience working in matrixed organizations with multiple stakeholders and complex decision-making structures.
- Proven ability to manage cross-functional projects and influence without direct authority.
- Strong communication, facilitation, and executive presentation skills.
- Demonstrated ability to navigate sensitive topics with professionalism, sound judgment, and discretion.
- Analytical, structured, and highly organized approach to problem-solving and execution.
- Background partnering with HR, Legal, Privacy, Employee Relations, or Technology teams.
- Familiarity with works councils, labor relations, or employee consultation processes.
- Exposure to AI governance, digital ethics, responsible AI frameworks, or AI-enabled HR tools.
- Experience supporting policy development, operating model design, or enterprise change initiatives.
- Hands-on Workday reporting, security, or configuration experience in an HR setting.
- Experience defining data standards, data dictionaries, or data quality frameworks.
- Exposure to AI or agentic solutions and an understanding of how data quality enables them.
- Experience partnering across HR COEs or functional teams on shared data.
Responsibilities
- Partner with each HR COE to identify, prioritize, and resolve the data quality issues that undermine trusted reporting and block AI readiness.
- Own the connection between business process configuration and reporting outcomes — ensuring that how data is captured in Workday produces the right reporting and analytics result.
- Work with the team that configures Workday business processes, exceptions, and rules to define and protect the standards that keep HR data clean at the point of entry.
- Establish clear, documented definitions and entry standards for HR data fields, so that practitioners know what to enter, how, and why — reducing avoidable error at the source.
- Surface ambiguous or redundant data structures (for example, multiple fields serving similar purposes) and drive decisions that simplify and standardize how HR data is defined and used.
- Anticipate emerging data needs as the business evolves and partner to design the right structures to support them.
- Validate downstream HR data feeds to confirm the right fields, for the right purpose, reach the right audience.
- Define the data dependencies of planned HR agents and analytics, in partnership with the agentic roadmap, so readiness is measured against what each solution actually needs.
- Build and maintain a per-COE data readiness view that makes the state of the foundation visible and ties data quality work directly to the agentic roadmap and go/no-go decisions.
- Partner with the HR Technology and DT teams on whether and how HR data can support specific Workday and non-Workday agent solutions, advising where the foundation is and is not yet ready.
- Report readiness, dependencies, and risks to the roadmap owner so sequencing decisions are grounded in the real state of the data.
