Summary:

Meta is seeking an HR Director to lead HR business partnership for the Insights organization under Alex Schultz - the analytics, data science, data engineering, and user research teams that shape how Meta understands its products and improves itself. The organization is building AI-first, redefining what insights work looks like as the tooling changes underneath it, and doing so after a period of significant structural change. This role operates as a strategic thought partner to VP and Director-level leaders while leading and developing a team of senior HR Business Partners, setting both the people agenda for a large, highly matrixed, global organization and the priorities, coverage, and bench strength of the HR team supporting it.
