Qualifications

• Minimum of 15 years of related People Partner / HR Business Partner experience with a bachelor's degree; or 15 years with a master's degree; or a PhD with 12 years of experience.
• Significant experience directly managing people — including experience building, coaching, and managing a team of People Partners or HR Business Partners.
• Demonstrated track record operating as a strategic partner and trusted advisor to C-suite / CxO-level executives and their leadership teams.
• Experience supporting a global sales, go-to-market, or revenue-generating organization strongly preferred, given the distinct workforce dynamics of a quota-carrying population.

• Manage, coach, and develop a team of People Partners supporting the Global Worldwide Field organization — owning the team's growth, performance, capacity, and career pathing.
• Maintain enterprise-level business fluency: understand pipeline dynamics, quota structures, GTM strategy, and competitive positioning well enough to challenge leaders and decisions.
• Connect hiring, performance, and org design decisions directly to revenue, retention, and customer-impact outcomes — not just regional or functional metrics.
• Attend and actively contribute to QBRs, operating reviews while playing a key role in quarterly attainment and performance review sessions with senior leadership.
• Advise the CRO on the workforce implications of major go-to-market or company-level strategic decisions.
• Own workforce strategy for the Global Field Organization at a 6-12 month+ horizon, incorporating scenario modeling (territory changes, segment shifts, AI/automation impact on sales roles, etc.).
• Own enterprise talent strategy for the Global Field organization — advising CRO-level leadership on pipeline strength, succession gaps, and talent investment priorities.
• Design and run executive-level talent review and succession-planning processes for leadership, driving genuine performance differentiation rather than compliance-only calibration.
