Summary:

Reporting to the EVP, Human Resources, the Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) will work closely with HR and business leadership to help mold and execute the company’s DEI strategy, ensuring Seagen offers a powerful, inclusive experience for all its employees and delivers the diverse talent and capabilities needed to achieve our business strategy. Seagen has a strong, collaborative culture, but we want to build an even more inclusive organization where everyone has a sense of belonging and can do their very best work.

We are looking for a strong, collaborative leader with practical business experience driving positive organizational change in a variety of areas, including diversity, equity and inclusion. Ideally, this change would be delivered within a fast-growing company with a highly educated, highly skilled workforce similar to biotechnology and life sciences.

This position will partner with business and HR leaders across the company to execute a wide range of key DEI priorities, including:

  • Build, refine and execute DEI strategies and work plans to enhance the employee experience for all employees and bring about real change within our organization, particularly for our diverse employees
  • Lead and facilitate company engagement with employee resource networks, including current networks for women, black and LBGQTIA employees. Work closely within these networks to ensure we are offering an inclusive experience where all our people have a sense of belonging and can be themselves
  • Collaborate with Talent Acquisition to drive change in our recruiting and selection processes to improve placement of diverse candidates, particularly within leadership and among underrepresented minorities. This leader will also network internally with current diverse employees to tap networks, increase the number of referrals and to identify exceptional talent to recruit
  • Collaborate with Talent Development to develop and execute DEI training and awareness strategies for colleagues across the company, as well as training for people managers and team leaders. Also, build career development and other strategies to develop diverse employees and prepare them for more senior roles across the company
  • Work closely with Total Rewards to assess SGEN compensation, benefits and other reward programs through a DEI lens, and recommend changes as appropriate
  • Manage the annual Affirmative Action Plan process and follow up on any gaps or areas of underrepresentation. Also manage any OFCCP interactions or audits
  • Provide outreach to external professional and other minority organizations in Seattle and nationally to attract diverse talent to the company. Represent the company on DEI matters externally and identify best practices that can be incorporated into our HR and business processes internally.

The Head of DEI will serve as the organization's go-to leader for everything related to diversity, equity and inclusion. Within HR, you will sit on the HRLT and work closely with HR Business Partners, Total Rewards, HR Operations, Talent Acquisition and HR Reporting and Analytics to ensure that DEI initiatives integrate with other talent initiatives.

In this highly visible role, we are looking for a business leader who has the ability and initiative to diagnose complex business and people issues and influence solutions. You must be self-driven and have the confidence to engage effectively and influence senior leaders and HR partners. You will need strong business acumen, systems thinking, excellent communications and influencing skills, as well as the ability to dive deep, get in the details and thrive in a fast paced, rigorous environment.

  • BA/BS, with a strong preference for an MBA, PhD or other relevant graduate degree
  • A minimum of 10-15 years of progressive work experience as an HR or Business Leader in high-growth, high-quality companies, including a preference for at least 2-3 years of experience leading DEI initiatives
