Guidehouse has appointed Jamila Taylor as chief human resources officer to focus on human capital strategy, talent acquisition, performance management, leadership and cultural development, organizational design, and learning and development.
Taylor will report to Chief Operating Officer Charles Beard.
“As we continue to experience unprecedented change and fast-paced growth, the HR team is on the forefront of this transformation, focused not only on basic HR capabilities that support the business strategy but forward-thinking capabilities that enable the business,” Taylor said.
Taylor has over 25 years of experience in privately and publicly traded companies. She joined Guidehouse in early 2019 to build the HR operation functions. Later that year, she was named partner and lead of the shared services function.
“At Guidehouse, our people have always been our greatest asset, and Jamila has helped us define our people and talent strategy, one which inspires our employees to achieve their best every day,” Beard said.
Taylor “will be instrumental in creating programs that help us support and retain our talented employees in consulting, digital services, and managed services, while also ensuring we can continue to attract skilled and diverse talent around the globe to help us fulfill our vision for the future,” he added.
Taylor also serves on Guidehouse’s ISO Audit Committee, Inclusion and Diversity Council, and on the Compensation Committee.
