The Director, Talent Planning serves as the Talent Product Lead for Danaher’s enterprise talent planning portfolio. This role owns the end-to-end lifecycle of talent planning products—including succession planning, critical role management, success profiles, talent pipelines, and enterprise talent reviews—ensuring they are globally consistent, scalable, data-informed, and business-relevant.

This role is not HRIS or IT focused. Instead, it requires a deep talent management expert who applies a product management mindset to talent planning—grounded in voice-of-customer insight, disciplined design, iterative testing, and measurable business outcomes. This role plays a critical part in standing up a new Talent Product Management capability, modernizing how talent planning solutions are designed, deployed, and continuously improved across the enterprise.

This position reports to the Global Head of Talent Planning. This position is fully remote and open globally, with practical preference for candidates based in North America or Europe to support collaboration across time zones.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to:

+ Partner closely with business and HR colleagues to understand business requirements and translate into strategies and plans for best-in-class, consistent and standard talent products that can scale and drive measurable impact enterprise-wide.

+ Drive the harmonization and rationalization of disparate talent planning products across Danaher.

+ Develop and maintain tools and frameworks for identifying critical roles, building success profiles, and conducting talent reviews.

+ Review and design processes, tools and standard work for succession planning and managing critical talent across talent pipelines.

+ Partner with HR Business Partners and Talent leaders to embed talent planning into broader talent architecture.

The essential requirements of the job include:

+ 10+ years of experience in Talent Management, Talent Planning, Organizational Development, or related HR leadership roles, ideally in a global enterprise environment.

+ Demonstrated expertise in designing and implementing talent planning and succession solutions with measurable business impact.

+ Strong understanding of talent assessment, potential evaluation, and pipeline management practices.

+ Ability to synthesize complex data and perspectives into practical, leader-ready solutions.

+ Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Psychology, or related field (Master’s degree preferred).

Travel, Motor Vehicle Record & Physical/Environment Requirements:

+ Ability to travel – domestic and occasional international travel is required (up to 25%)

It would be a plus if you also possess previous experience in:

+ Experience applying a product management mindset (user research, iteration, testing, adoption metrics) to HR or Talent solutions.

+ Strong program and change management capabilities.

+ Ability to translate business needs into practical and customer-centric solutions that scale enterprise-wide.
