Job Description:

What we’re all about.

We find, when we come together in the pursuit of excellence, great things happen. And that’s how we do things at Quantexa – together. Our business is data, but our culture is collective. We’re about growth – but not just the bottom line. We create a culture where people feel empowered to do their best work. We might work across continents and time zones, but that doesn’t stop us from collaborating. We’re connected. We celebrate our successes together, and we unite to tackle the challenges. Nearly half of our colleagues come from an ethnic or religious minority background. We speak over 20 languages across our 47 nationalities, creating a sense of belonging for all.

At Q, we’re looking for people who share that vision. People like you.

The opportunity.

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior People Business Partner to join Quantexa’s dynamic People Business Partnering team. You will take ownership of the people strategy for our Go-To-Market (GTM) function, overseeing all aspects of the people agenda while working in close collaboration with another People Business Partner, to ensure alignment with Quantexa’s broader business objectives across our three regions: EMEA, APAC, and NA.

This is an exciting opportunity for a senior HR professional to thrive in a fast-paced, people-centric culture, where you will have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the future of Quantexa’s GTM function. This will include key sub-functions such as Sales, Alliances, Enablement, Marketing, Technology Account Partners, Solution Engineering and Customer Advocacy. If you are passionate about driving impactful change and creating a meaningful difference for both our colleagues and the organisation, this role provides a unique opportunity to make a tangible, long-term impact on Quantexa’s success.

What you’ll be doing.

• Lead the GTM function’s people strategy as the Senior People Business Partner, providing strategic direction and serving as the key point of contact for people-related matters across multiple GTM sub-functions.
• Set the standard for excellence, mentoring and developing another People Business Partner while driving best-in-class business partnering across the function.
• Manage complex employee relations cases independently, leveraging extensive ER expertise to provide coaching and guidance to leaders and other People Business Partners on best practices.
• Partner closely with Commercial functions, bringing a deep understanding of their unique challenges and delivering people-focused solutions that drive business success.
• Lead critical people initiatives, including review cycles, compensation and sales incentive plans, performance management, and engagement strategies, ensuring alignment with business goals.
• Collaborate with the wider People team on high-impact strategic projects, delivering tailored solutions that enable talent to thrive.
• Champion a balanced, people-centric approach, implementing innovative and pragmatic solutions that align business priorities with employee experience.
• Leverage data-driven insights to support Talent, Employee Experience, L&D, and People Operations teams, ensuring the successful execution of the people agenda.
• Take a proactive approach to employee relations, analysing trends, recommending solutions, and coaching managers to address issues before they escalate.

At this stage in your career, you have built extensive operational and strategic leadership experience, successfully partnering with executive teams to drive business impact. We are looking for a seasoned, forward-thinking professional who can challenge the status quo, think beyond the traditional HR remit, and deliver innovative, high-value people solutions that contribute to Quantexa’s continued growth and success.
