Job Summary The Principal, Talent Strategy & Solutions translates business strategy into the workforce and Talent capabilities Comcast needs to compete and win. Operating as a senior individual contributor and strategic advisor, this role partners upstream with business and Talent leaders to understand changing strategies, customer needs, workforce requirements, technology opportunities, and market conditions; define the business and workforce problem to be solved; and determine where Talent can create differentiated value.

The Principal leads complex discovery and solution-framing efforts, develops stakeholder-aligned business cases, evaluates alternatives and tradeoffs, and mobilizes the appropriate Talent and enterprise capabilities to move from opportunity to measurable business outcome. The role exercises significant independent judgment and influences across organizational boundaries without requiring formal reporting authority. Job Description Key Accountabilities:

  • Translate business strategy into workforce and Talent requirements, identifying implications for skills, capabilities, capacity, experiences, ways of working, and Talent investment.
  • Lead customer discovery and strategic problem definition, uncovering needs, root causes, constraints, and desired outcomes and distinguishing the underlying business or workforce problem from the requested solution.
  • Frame integrated Talent solutions, translating complex business needs into solution hypotheses and requirements and determining the appropriate combination of Talent, process, experience, technology, AI/automation, governance, enablement, and insights capabilities.
  • Develop stakeholder-aligned business cases and value hypotheses, defining expected outcomes, investment requirements, productivity and capacity opportunities, assumptions, dependencies, risks, tradeoffs, and measures of success before recommendations advance.
  • Apply enterprise and economic judgment to workforce and Talent decisions, evaluating implications across external labor, customer, capital, employee engagement, and compliance dimensions and making material tradeoffs explicit.
  • Identify opportunities for innovation, AI, automation, and new operating models, applying disciplined judgment to determine where work should be automated, augmented, redesigned, simplified, or remain human.
  • Orchestrate solutions across Talent and enterprise boundaries, mobilizing the right expertise and partners while maintaining continuity of the business problem, requirements, decisions, and expected outcomes from discovery through execution.
  • Establish outcome and measurement expectations upfront, defining baselines and success criteria and partnering with Talent Insights, Business Operations & Performance to determine whether solutions deliver intended business, workforce, experience, productivity, and financial value.

Measures of Success:

  • Business and stakeholder confidence in Talent solutioning

  • Percentage of material investments supported by clearly defined problems, requirements, value hypotheses, and measures of success

  • Stakeholder alignment on business-case assumptions before investment

  • Quality and speed of movement from business need to decision-ready recommendation

  • Business-case value realized following implementation

  • Reduction in poorly defined, duplicative, or prematurely solutioned demand

  • Reuse of enterprise capabilities and existing solutions before creation of bespoke approaches

  • Measurable productivity, capacity, workforce, experience, or business outcomes resulting from Talent solutions

  • Effectiveness of cross-functional handoffs and enterprise partnerships

  • Evidence that implemented solutions addressed the original business problem
