About
Christine Winchester | Talent Strategy & Workforce Transformation Leader Washington, D.C. Metro Area
I solve complex hiring and workforce challenges at scale—whether it's building high-impact hiring strategies, streamlining processes, or influencing policy to remove barriers to talent acquisition. With 20+ years of experience in government, national security, and tech, I’ve led initiatives that reduced time-to-hire from months to 30 days, secured $8.5M+ in funding for enterprise-wide hiring efforts, and helped reshape federal hiring policy under Executive Order 14110 to expand AI and technology talent across agencies.
People call me when hiring feels impossible (whether in the public or private sector)—I thrive in high-stakes, high-impact environments where talent strategy must evolve to meet mission-critical needs. Whether optimizing hiring operations, scaling teams, or designing innovative recruiting frameworks, my approach is always data-driven, people-focused, and mission-aligned.
