We're delighted to welcome global workforce leader Jonathan "JR" Reyes to his new role as VP of North America.

Previously the Global Head of Work Movement and Recruitment Operations at Uber, JR has significant experience. He held senior recruitment roles with Commonwealth Bank and IBM. Our first major hire in the US, JR brings Reejig's mission to US customers.

With 20 years of experience growing teams in the US, ANZ, UK, and Latin America, JR is the perfect person. He teaches top US companies about Reejig's approach to redesigning work.

Bringing a people-first focus that prioritizes the workforce has been JR's driving motivation. Having watched other functions like finance and marketing go through a technology revolution, he's excited. He leads workforce strategy through the same journey with Reejig.

With continued US expansion and growing momentum, now was the right time. An exceptional leader on the ground in Silicon Valley. It's the first step in our plans to build a best-in-class local team. We're shifting how organizations attract and retain people across the US.

Many organizations struggle to attract and retain the right people. The market is fiercely competitive. JR's first point: leadership teams now understand the value of hiring and retaining people. This realization drives increased investment in technology. Technology that assesses capabilities and potential, not personal attributes. It moves organizations toward capability-based hiring. A shift JR leads in the US.

AI capability is compounding. Work visibility is not.

JR is our resident work futurist. He sees it as a verb, not a title. A true champion of the Work Operating System, JR uses data and AI-driven insights. He shapes the future of work. Not just as a way of gazing into what's next.

Every enterprise is deploying AI. Almost none can see the work they're deploying it into.

"I am so pleased to welcome JR to the Reejig team. He will play a key role in bringing Reejig's mission to our US customers. Over the past year, we've been pulled to the US. We've grown exponentially. It makes sense to have an exceptional leader on the ground. We have big plans to grow our team in the US. I look forward to working with JR to deliver amazing results for our new and emerging clients."
