Tawanda Arroyo
@tawandaarroyo
I build workforce planning and talent programs that strengthen hiring pipelines across large public-sector organizations.
What I'm looking for
I've led workforce planning, talent acquisition, and early-career programs across federal and local government organizations, supporting workforces of up to 65,000 employees.
At U.S. Customs and Border Protection, I directed enterprise recruitment and workforce initiatives, leading programs that supported more than 600 annual hires, including Veteran Employment, Pathways, SkillBridge, Disability Employment, and Schedule A.
At the Department of Transportation and EPA, I built scalable early-career and military-transition talent pipelines, advised executive leaders on workforce strategy, and developed Power BI dashboards that reduced reporting time by 50%.
I'm focused on translating workforce data, hiring needs, and operational priorities into practical talent strategies that improve candidate experience, compliance, and long-term organizational readiness.
