About the role
The Talent Partner at Driscoll's is a senior, strategic role focused on enterprise talent development, leadership readiness, and succession strength across Driscoll's of the Americas (DOTA). This role partners closely with DOTA business leaders, HR Business Advisors (HRBA), HR Business Partners (HRBPs), and Global Talent Centers of Expertise (CoEs) to design and enable a forward-looking, data-driven talent strategy that supports business performance, leadership continuity, and long-term organizational capability. The DOTA business unit spans four countries: United States, Canada, Mexico, and Peru, with approximately 4,000 employees operating in a complex, multinational environment. This role is designed for talent practitioners with deep experience shaping talent systems in large, global or matrixed organizations, rather than those primarily focused on recruiting or broad HR administration. The Talent Partner operates as both a thought partner and architect, translating business strategy into enterprise-level talent priorities, while ensuring development, succession, and mobility practices are scalable, culturally grounded, and aligned across geographies. This position is based in Watsonville, California, with domestic and international travel up to ~30%. Role Impact & Scope The Talent Partner leads the DOTA talent agenda, using internal and external insights to identify capability gaps, leadership risks, and development opportunities tied to mid- and long-term business strategy. The role contributes to an agile, high-performance culture by shaping how talent is identified, developed, reviewed, and moved across the organization-particularly at leadership and critical-role levels. In addition, this position serves as an enterprise owner of a global talent initiative or framework within the Global Talent CoE, bringing deep subject-matter expertise and ensuring consistency, quality, and measurable impact across regions.
