Experience

1. Director, Talent Acquisition

   Omaha Public Power District

   Jan 2018 — Present · Omaha, NE, US

   OPPD has some lofty transformational goals for itself and I\'m stoked to be able to help out. The premium placed on strategy and discipline is awesome, support for thoughtful change is abundant, and I geek out when I think about the industry I\'m able to serve nowadays. Call it the trifecta!As for what I do? I\'m responsible for the architecture, engineering, operation, and iteration of the Talent Acquisition function at the District and integrating into our Total Talent Management philosophy alongside my peers and our team. From identification, to engagement, to assessment, and acquisition the program has been thoughtfully designed using a mix of best in class methodologies and tools. Not to mentioned resourced with a bevvy of critical thinkers who have a deep understanding of what drives top performing companies. In totality, it\'s a radical new way of thinking about Talent Acquisition through the lens of a Total Talent Management philosophy and I\'m excited about the prospects of this journey.#TheHiringMachine#AlloftheCandidates
