Training Lead

People planning processes and connected digital tools are critical to successful, efficient and compliant operations of this Swedish client. They secure that co-workers are available at the right time at the right place to support our operational needs; that schedules are created, made available and kept updated based on co-workers availability; that time cards are created, reviewed and are base for correct salary payment.

Today they see development needs related to people planning in several areas:
They want to improve flexibility in schedules to increase co-worker retention.

The omni channel landscape creates new demands in the meetings with the customer - they want to update processes and tools to enable co-worker schedules across an omnichannel environment.

Systems need replacement or upgrade to not risk business continuity - they must replace digital solutions prior to end-of-life dates.

High complexity due to local labor laws and social partner needs - they want to standardize their people planning processes and tool across markets while securing sufficient degree of localization to fit the market needs.

The transformation program "People Planning Acceleration" is started to resolve these business needs.
