Job Summary

We are seeking an experienced HR Business Partner who will serve as a strategic advisor to the Design team, an established, highly knowledgeable, and fact‑driven organization. As the team continues to develop its HR partnership model, this role requires an experienced, high‑performing HRBP who can quickly build trust, establish credibility, and provide thoughtful, data‑informed guidance. The HRBP will also provide direct, practical coaching; help leaders navigate difficult employee situations; and ensure that the right talent is identified, developed, and positioned for future growth.

This is a high‑impact HRBP position within a dynamic, results‑driven business unit, requiring a confident and resilient partner who can operate effectively with a high degree of autonomy. The client groups support and maintain strong, independent operating norms and may not always default to established HR frameworks; the successful candidate will be adept at navigating divergent viewpoints and reinforcing best practices through clear, business‑relevant communication. This role requires the ability to uphold policy and process with consistency, while cultivating durable, trust‑based relationships through sustained engagement and a thorough understanding of the business. Candidates should be comfortable earning credibility over time through demonstrated reliability and hands‑on partnership, rather than through process alone.

Key areas of focus include:

• Employee Relations & Trust‑Building: Navigating challenging scenarios, unfavorable job site dynamics, and a historically under‑supported employee population, while establishing credibility through authentic engagement. Establishing credibility with a team while educating leaders and employees on how HR can support their success.
• People‑Manager Development: Strengthening leadership capabilities through practical coaching, clear expectations, and guidance on managing performance, accountability, and employee development.
• Attrition & Retention: Identifying factors contributing to employee departures and developing practical strategies to strengthen engagement, retention, and the overall employee experience.
• Policy & Process Enforcement: Reinforcing established HR processes while remaining adaptable to the evolving needs of the Design organization.
