About the Role
We are seeking a Senior Human Resources Business Partner (HRBP) who thrives in fast-moving, agile environments and enjoys working as part of a lean team. This role is best suited for someone who is energized by solving complex challenges, thinks quickly on their feet, and brings proactive, solutions-oriented thinking to people and business needs, without leaning too heavily on leadership for direction.
The Senior HRBP will act as a trusted advisor to designated business units, balancing day-to-day HR responsibilities with longer-term strategic initiatives. This person will play a key role in shaping culture, managing employee relations with confidence, and aligning people strategy with business goals.
This isn’t a traditional HRBP role. You’ll be empowered to own your business areas end-to-end, trusted to make decisions, and expected to bring forward bold ideas. If you’re looking for a place where you can flex both your strategic HR mindset and your hands-on execution skills while working in a lean, agile environment that values adaptability and impact, this role is for you.
What you’ll be doing:
- Be a strategic partner: Collaborate with business leaders to align people initiatives with organizational objectives and long-term strategy.
- Navigate employee relations independently: Handle sensitive and complex issues (investigations, performance challenges, conflict resolution) with confidence, discretion, and minimal reliance on leadership.
- Provide day-to-day HR guidance across performance management, compensation, workforce planning, and employee development.
- Partner with leaders to ensure strong pipelines for key roles, identify successors, and support career growth across teams.
- Build manager capability through feedback, coaching, and practical HR solutions.
- Support organizational shifts—restructures, new initiatives, process improvements—helping leaders and employees adapt successfully.
- Use HR metrics and analytics to identify trends, diagnose issues, and recommend evidence-based solutions.
- Promote diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging while fostering a culture that reflects our values.
- Work closely with HR Ops, TA, Comp, and Enablement to design and execute people programs that meet business needs.
What you’ll bring:
- 7+ years of progressive HRBP or equivalent HR experience with a proven record of managing both employee relations and strategic HR initiatives.
- Strong track record in navigating complex employee relations matters independently (investigations, conflict resolution, performance management).
- Experience thriving in a lean team within an agile organization, with the flexibility to wear multiple hats when needed.
- Demonstrated ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution in a fast-paced environment.
- Strong business acumen and ability to link HR strategy to business results.
- Proven experience coaching and influencing leaders at all levels.
- Exceptional problem-solving skills, sound judgment, and the confidence to make decisions.
- Comfort with ambiguity and shifting priorities; able to adapt quickly without losing momentum.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and credibility across the organization.
- Proficiency in HRIS systems and HR analytics; data-driven approach to decision-making.
