Performance & Talent Development Specialist
WFA Digital Insight
Trafilea’s Performance & Talent Development Specialist sits at the crossroads of data‑driven insight and people‑first growth. Unlike a typical HR role, the position is embedded in a tech‑led eCommerce group that builds its own consumer brands, meaning the specialist directly influences the teams that power the AI Growth Engine. Responsibilities span the entire talent lifecycle—from performance reviews and calibration to individual development plans and succession mapping—while leveraging advanced Excel and Google Sheets dashboards. The role also calls for a comfort with AI‑enabled tools to automate reporting, a rare blend of analytical rigor and hands‑on coaching. Candidates should be ready to partner with global leaders, translate metrics into actionable guidance, and help shape a high‑performing, remote‑first culture.
