Workforce mobility, tax, and immigration solutions firm Vialto Partners has appointed Lisa M Buckingham as its new chief human resources officer (CHRO).
HR executive Buckingham will oversee all aspects of Vialto’s global people strategy and report directly to Neil Masterson, chief executive officer. She will oversee culture and talent transformation across its global footprint, using her expertise in building high-performing, inclusive cultures across complex, mission-driven organisations.
She most recently served as CHRO for the US Soccer Federation, where she led the relocation of the organisation’s headquarters, established a future-focused HR strategy, and championed employee experience and organisational agility. Prior to that, she served as president of Ellig Group, a leadership advisory and executive search firm focused on advancing inclusive leadership.
Buckingham also served as chief people, place, and brand officer at Lincoln Financial, which has more than 12,000 employees globally. She led human capital strategy, brand, communications, corporate social responsibility and enterprise real estate.
A fellow and board member of the National Academy of Human Resources, Buckingham also chairs the compensation committee for the Philadelphia Eagles Charitable Foundation and 4C Digital Health.
Buckingham said: “Vialto’s purpose, helping people thrive in a global, mobile world, is deeply aligned with my passion for talent, opportunity, and global citizenship. I am honored to join this ambitious and values-driven organisation and look forward to collaborating with our teams worldwide to shape the future of work, and to be part of the solution that helps other global organisations move talent seamlessly across borders.”
Masterson added: “Lisa is an outstanding addition to our team and will help build upon our already strong global culture. Lisa has a successful track record of building and retaining talent and supporting inclusive workplaces, all of which will be valued skills to support our employees to ensure they continue to have the resources they need to provide best in class solutions for our clients.”
