We're delighted to welcome global talent leader Jonathan "JR" Reyes to his new role as VP of North America.
Previously the Global Head of Talent Mobility and Talent Acquisition Operations at Uber, JR has significant experience. He held senior talent acquisition 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 talent-first focus that prioritizes people 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 the way organizations attract and retain talent 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 talent. This realization drives increased investment in technology. Technology that assesses skills and potential, not personal attributes. It moves organizations toward skills-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 to shape the future of work. Not just as a way of gazing into what's next.
