About the Role

We are seeking a strategic and hands-on HR Business Partner to support primarily corporate functions within a dynamic, growth-oriented organization. This position plays a critical role in guiding leaders through complex employee relations matters, driving performance management strategies, and aligning people initiatives with business goals.

Reporting to a senior HR leader, this role also includes people management responsibilities, overseeing a small team of 2–3 employees, including specialists focused on leave administration, accommodations, and employee services. The ideal candidate brings prior experience supporting corporate teams in a business partner capacity, and is confident managing employee relations at various levels of complexity.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as a trusted advisor to corporate leadership teams, offering strategic and tactical support on employee relations, organizational structure, and performance development.
• Lead and resolve complex employee relations issues including investigations, coaching, corrective action, and disciplinary procedures.
• Coach and support managers in handling performance improvement plans and sensitive personnel matters with fairness, compliance, and business alignment.
• Manage and mentor a small team of HR professionals, ensuring effective execution in areas such as leaves of absence, accommodations, and employee engagement.
• Collaborate with internal subject matter experts and third-party vendors (e.g., TILT) to ensure consistent, compliant, and employee-centered administration of medical leaves and reasonable accommodations.
• Ensure HR strategies and practices align with the needs of the corporate business units, providing proactive support that reflects business goals and culture.
• Partner with the Learning & Development and Talent teams on initiatives including performance reviews, workforce planning, and employee growth programs.
• Drive consistency in policy application and HR compliance, particularly in accordance with California employment law and corporate workplace regulations.
• Identify process improvements, use HR data and insights to inform decision-making, and serve as a champion for organizational effectiveness and culture.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field (or equivalent professional experience).
• Minimum 5 years of progressive HR experience, with a strong focus on employee relations, performance management, and organizational development.
• Demonstrated success in an HRBP capacity, preferably with direct experience supporting corporate employee groups.
• Proven people management experience, with the ability to lead, develop, and mentor HR team members.
• Solid understanding of leave of absence processes, reasonable accommodations, and associated compliance requirements; familiarity with third-party leave management solutions (e.g., TILT) is a plus.
• Strong knowledge of California labor laws and HR compliance standards.
• Excellent communication, coaching, and conflict-resolution skills with the ability to influence across all levels.
• Technically proficient with HRIS systems, Microsoft Office Suite, and comfortable using data to drive decision-making.
• Ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion and sound judgment.
• Valid driver’s license and automobile insurance for occasional travel needs.
• Hybrid position: 3 days in-office (Mon–Wed), with flexibility for remote work on other days.
• Occasional travel to other locations may be required.
• Typical office physical demands (e.g., sitting, computer use, lifting up to 15 lbs).
