Job description

What You'll Do

Employee Relations & Experience

• Be the go-to HR partner for employees across your business groups - accessible, trusted, and genuinely invested in their experience.
• Manage employee relations matters with fairness and sound judgment: workplace concerns, conflict resolution, and investigations where required.
• Conduct stay interviews and listening sessions; surface themes and insights to HR leadership with a clear point of view on what needs to move.

Manager Partnership & Organisational Health

• Serve as the primary HR contact for managers - advising on people decisions, policy interpretation, team dynamics, and employee situations.
• Equip managers with the tools, frameworks, and confidence to lead their teams effectively.
• Monitor the health of your business groups - engagement signals, retention patterns, performance trends - and bring recommendations to leadership before issues escalated.
• Support organisational change: communication, manager readiness, and employee adoption.

Talent Management & Development

• Own the talent management agenda for your business groups - from identifying capability gaps today to building the pipeline the business needs tomorrow
• Design and maintain competency frameworks that define what great looks like at every level; keep them connected to hiring and real career conversations, not just documentation
• Build and run structured talent reviews: assess performance and potential, identify high-potential employees, surface flight risks, and translate outcomes into concrete development and succession plans
• Own succession planning for critical roles within your business groups - proactively identifying and developing internal candidates so the business is never caught unprepared
• Conduct ongoing learning needs assessments across your population; translate findings into targeted development interventions - whether that's a formal program, a stretch assignment, a mentoring relationship, or an external resource
• Partner with HR leadership and external vendors to design, source, and deliver learning programs that build capability at scale
• Track the impact of development investments - participation, application, and outcomes - and use that data to improve what's working and cut what isn't
• Support internal mobility by helping employees understand career pathways and actively connecting talent to opportunities across the business
• Build a culture of continuous feedback and development within your business groups - making growth a lived experience, not an annual event

Performance & Feedback Culture

• Support the annual and mid-year performance process - ensuring meaningful participation, consistent execution, and clear outcomes.
• Coach managers and employees through goal-setting, feedback, and development conversations.
• Identify trends emerging from performance cycles and share insights with HR leadership.

What You Bring

• 6–9 years of progressive HR experience in a People Partner, HRBP, or Employee Relations role.
• Strong employee relations instincts - you know how to hold a difficult conversation and reach a fair outcome.
• Track record of building trusted relationships with managers and employees at all levels.
• Experience supporting talent development, career frameworks, and performance processes.
• Comfortable working in a lean team where you own your domain end-to-end.
• Experience in a B2B SaaS or tech company.
• You're energised by the complexity of people and organisations - no two situations are the same and that's what keeps you engaged.
• You give advice that leaders actually take because it's grounded, practical, and delivered with confidence.
• You believe great HR partnership makes the business better, not just more compliant.
