Job description

Hover helps people design, improve, and protect the properties they love. With proprietary AI built on over a decade of real property data, Hover answers age-old questions like “What will it look like?” and “What will it cost?” Homeowners, contractors, and insurance professionals rely on Hover to get fully measured, accurate, and interactive 3D models of any property — all from a smartphone scan in minutes.

At Hover, we’re driven by curiosity, purpose, and a shared commitment to serving our customers, communities, and each other. We believe the best ideas come from diverse perspectives and are proud to cultivate an inclusive, high-performance culture that inspires growth, accountability, and excellence. Backed by leading investors like Google Ventures and Menlo Ventures, and trusted by industry leaders including Travelers, State Farm, and Nationwide — we’re redefining how people understand and interact with their spaces.

Why Hover wants you

Hover is hiring a Senior People Business Partner to serve as a strategic advisor to leaders across our go-to-market organization — Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and Revenue Operations. This role is critical to ensuring our people strategy evolves alongside the business as we scale. You'll partner closely with senior leaders to shape org design, elevate leadership effectiveness, and embed strong performance and change practices across teams — with real influence and a consistent seat at the table.

You will contribute by

You'll act as a strategic advisor to senior leaders across Business Operations, Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and Revenue Operations — helping them navigate complexity, make high-quality people decisions, and build healthy, high-performing teams. You'll diagnose root causes, solve ambiguous problems, and bring clarity to areas where expectations, roles, or ways of working aren't fully aligned. You will strengthen leadership capability, improve decision-making, and anticipate the people implications of changes before they surface. This includes coaching managers, addressing performance issues with nuance and rigor, and guiding teams through moments of transition. Above all, you'll help leaders create sustainable systems, not one-off fixes.

In practice, you will:

Partner with executives on org design, leadership effectiveness, and strategic people decisions

Diagnose team and organizational challenges; recommend actionable, systems-level solutions

Coach leaders and managers through performance, development, and difficult conversations

Lead change management for org, strategy, and operating model transitions

Improve cross-functional alignment across Business Operations, Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and Revenue Operations

Experience partnering with senior leaders across Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and/or Revenue Operations

Proven ability to influence and build trust with complex or challenging stakeholders

Experience with org design, performance management, and change initiatives

Hands-on use of AI tools to improve how people work — whether that's analysis, documentation, coaching prep, or process design — and a point of view on where they help and where they don't
