About Us: EvolutionIQ’s mission is to improve the lives of injured and disabled workers and enable them to return to the workforce, saving billions of dollars in avoidable costs and lost productivity to the US and global economies and make insurance more affordable for everyone. We are currently experiencing massive growth and to accomplish our goals, we are hiring world-class talent who want to help build and scale internally, and transform the insurance space. Our team is our #1 priority, and we have been named one of Inc.’s Best Workplaces 3 years in a row!

Our Team: The EvolutionIQ People Team fosters an inclusive and growth-oriented culture. Our core mission is to help everyone find their purpose at work and achieve business results by focusing on our most valuable asset — our People. We are dedicated to attracting and nurturing highly talented people and promoting a culture where innovation thrives. We champion a positive work environment where every team member feels a sense of belonging and is empowered to reach their utmost potential.

Your Impact: We’re hiring a Senior HR Business Partner on an interim basis with the potential to convert to a permanent role. As a Senior HR Business Partner, you will play a critical role in scaling a high-performance, values-driven culture during a period of rapid growth. Reporting directly to the VP of People, you’ll step in as a trusted advisor to leaders and employees across the organization. You’ll drive business outcomes through strategic HR partnership, expert execution of performance and talent initiatives, and hands-on support in coaching, learning, and employee development.

This is an ideal opportunity for a seasoned HR leader who thrives in dynamic environments, loves solving problems at both the systems and individual level, and is passionate about building org-wide programs that enable people to grow, lead, and deliver at their best. You’ll bring sharp judgment, deep HR acumen, and the ability to flex seamlessly between strategy and execution. We are looking for this person to work out of our NYC office in Manhattan (near Hudson Square) at least 3 days a week.

About You (Key Competencies):

• Strategic HR Leadership You’ve led as a true business partner in high-growth environments—advising senior leaders, shaping org design, leading through change, and translating business needs into impactful people strategies.
• Learning & Development Expertise You’ve designed and rolled out L&D initiatives that actually stick—from building foundational manager training to coaching leaders and enabling self-directed career growth at scale.
• Performance & Talent Management You bring experience managing performance cycles, calibrations, and coaching conversations. You know how to build high-accountability cultures where people are motivated to grow, and managers know how to lead.
• HR Business Partner Toolkit You bring sound judgment, situational fluency, and a bias toward action when navigating sensitive employee relations matters, resolving conflict, or supporting teams through org change.
• Builder's Mindset You don’t just operate in systems—you build them. Whether launching scalable onboarding, optimizing feedback loops, or rolling out engagement initiatives, you bring structure without red tape.
• Data-Driven Decision-Maker You’re fluent in HR metrics and use data to spot trends, guide decisions, and influence stakeholders with clarity and confidence.
• Trusted Cross-Functional Partner You collaborate fluidly across Legal, Finance, IT, and business units—balancing risk, compliance, and business priorities with empathy and executional rigor.
• Clear, Credible Communicator You’re a skilled communicator—clear, direct, and empathetic. You know how to coach leaders, navigate complexity, and build trust across all levels of the organization.
• High Ownership & Agility You’re proactive, scrappy, and outcome-oriented. You know how to triage competing priorities, adapt quickly, and execute without waiting for perfect conditions.
  
  

Experience & Skills Needed:

• 8+ years of progressive experience in People/HR roles, with at least 3+ years in a senior HRBP or equivalent strategic role, ideally in fast-paced, scaling tech or startup environments.
• Deep expertise in learning & development, including designing and rolling out manager training, career development frameworks, and scalable org-wide learning programs.
• Strong background in performance management, including managing review cycles, performance coaching, and developing high-performance, high-accountability cultures.
• Proven ability to advise senior leaders and influence organizational decisions related to org design, change management, and talent planning.
• Fluent in employee relations, with strong judgment in handling sensitive issues, conflict resolution, and legal compliance across multi-state environments.
• Solid working knowledge of U.S. employment law and compliance frameworks (COBRA, HIPAA, ACA, ADA, EEO, ERISA, FMLA); familiarity with global employment practices and immigration law is a plus.
• Experienced with HR systems and tools (e.g., HRIS, Lattice, Pave, Greenhouse, or equivalents), with the ability to build dashboards and draw insights from people data.
• Proven success in building or optimizing core HR programs, including onboarding, engagement, recognition, and manager enablement.
• Clear, concise communicator with strong writing, coaching, and facilitation skills across all levels of the business.
• Highly adaptable, execution-oriented, and capable of juggling multiple workstreams in a high-growth, high-change environment.
• SHRM-CP, SHRM-SCP, or other relevant HR certification preferred.
