About the Role

We are seeking an exceptional Human Resources leader to drive the development and implementation of HR strategies impacting multiple PXT organizations. This role partners with senior executive leaders across Senior Talent and Transformation (STT) — including Executive Compensation, Executive Talent Management, Recruiting, Product, Engineering, Science, and more.

This HR Leader will be responsible for the development and execution of HR strategies and initiatives, influencing and collaborating with HR professionals at all levels.

Why This Role

You will help business leaders look around corners with data-driven recommendations that improve performance, capability, and the employee experience.

This role is accountable for driving global initiatives and projects including workforce planning, organizational design, location strategy, long-range operating plans, employee relations, and fostering an AI-enabled culture. This is a great opportunity to be a true owner in one of the most important areas of tech today.

The role demands someone equally comfortable analyzing workforce metrics as they are ideating how AI adoption can drive the business forward or advising senior leaders on sensitive topics. You'll act as strategist, coach, and innovation partner — all in service of building the teams that will define the future of entertainment. If you're energized by the prospect of building high-performing teams in a dynamic, global environment, and can commit to occasional travel (10–15%), we want to hear your story.

Key job responsibilities

• Partner with cross-functional HR teams to enable managers, address employee relations matters, and drive results
• Lead or contribute to cross-team and cross-organizational HR projects
• Own and lead strategic projects at multiple levels of the organization

A day in the life

• Start your morning collaborating with executive leaders on strategic workforce planning
• Partner with recruitment to design innovative hiring strategies for critical roles
• Attend a product review to deepen understanding of the longer-term vision and the talent levers needed to achieve it
• Coach leaders through organizational changes and growth opportunities
• Analyze attrition and engagement data to develop targeted retention initiatives
• Lead discussion sessions on how AI tools can drive business impact across product and design teams
