Richard Miller

I manage the global talent acquisition function and work closely with HR to create and implement an efficient talent acquisition strategy including Employer Brand efforts to improve recruitment and business performance. I am responsible for global (North America, EMEAI, APAC) sourcing, recruiting, hiring and retaining talented candidates. I plan procedures for improving the candidate experience and have implemented a DE&I strategy. I also support the business with talent management (workforce planning, succession planning, compensation management) and HR projects.
