POSITION SUMMARY

The Talent Management Partner Lead is a senior practitioner and people leader within TTM Technologies' Global Talent Management COE, anchored within the third arm of the TM COE dedicated to succession readiness, critical talent pool health, and organizational effectiveness.

This role works in close, day-to-day partnership with HR Business Partners (HRBPs) supporting critical and key talent — moving beyond advisory to direct execution. The Talent Management Partner Lead drives talent review cycles, succession planning, specific development programs, and targeted readiness and retention strategies from design through delivery, ensuring interventions are implemented, tracked, and producing measurable outcomes. Working alongside HRBPs, this role owns the identification, assessment, and development of critical talent within assigned client groups — translating talent data into clear, actionable insights and ensuring those insights result in real movement: successors' readiness, stronger talent pipelines, and enhanced retention of critical talent.

As a people leader, the Talent Management Partner Lead will build, develop, and manage a growing team of Talent Management Partners — setting the standard for quality talent work, coaching team members to operate with both strategic depth and executional rigor, and scaling the team's impact across the organization.

This individual operates with a high degree of autonomy while contributing to the broader goals of the Global Talent Management COE and the HR function.
