This position is with Manifest Global, which also includes trailblazer brands such as Cialfo, Explore, BridgeU, FlowAI, Kaaiser and Edugo.
What This Role Is
Talent Operations touches the entire distance between the day someone accepts an offer and the day they eventually leave, onboarding, payroll, policy, workplace, travel, global mobility, the data and systems that hold all of it together.
