Talent Enablement Partner

The Talent Enablement (TE) Partner helps Fortive Operating Companies (OpCos) solve business and leadership challenges by translating them into practical talent actions that improve performance. This role serves as a dedicated partner to assignedOpCosand corporate functions — helping leaders focus on the few development and capability shifts that matter most, activating the right solutions, and staying accountable until those changes take hold.

Reporting to the VP Talent Enablement, the TE Partner works closely withOpCoHR Vice Presidents, HR business partners, peopleto listen, diagnose, confirm, recommend, co-create, and sustain solutions over time. This is not a traditional program-building role. TE Partners use enterprise tools and content first, shape practical solutions for theOpCocontext, and only build something new when nothing else will work. The role requires someone who can learn a new business quickly, build credibility without a lot of infrastructure, operate comfortably in ambiguity, and stay with the work long enough to see behavior and business outcomes improve.
