Job summary

Basis is seeking a People Business Partner to scale the people systems behind our next growth stage. You’ll advise leaders on organization design, workforce planning, performance, manager development, employee relations, and organizational health. This role reports to the People Ops Lead.

You’ll partner as a strategic thought partner and hands-on builder—embedded with teams to align roadmaps, metrics, and people. You bring a systems mindset and strong business judgment.

Qualifications

• 3–5+ years in HR business partnering or people operations, with a track record of owning performance management and employee relations independently at a high-growth company
• Strong expertise in performance, calibration, manager coaching, and employee relations, and the judgment to know what a given situation actually calls for
• A systems mindset: you can take a process that works and make it scale - clearer workflows, better data, tighter rhythms - and you know the difference between that and just adding steps
• A bias for action. You don't wait for perfect information; you set a direction, ship something, and iterate on what you learn
• The ability to influence senior leaders through credibility and partnership, not process
• Range across the employee lifecycle, and the discretion the work requires

Responsibilities

• Act as a trusted advisor to leaders across the organization - ability to influence is key
• Coach managers on feedback, performance, team health, and leadership effectiveness
• Build deep fluency in your teams' goals so your guidance is grounded in real business context
• Partner crossfunctionally to improve employee experience across onboarding, engagement, retention, and development
• Lead career and growth planning conversations and manage performance cycles end to end — communications, timelines, feedback quality, and calibration
• Navigate employee relations and sensitive situations with judgment, empathy, and pragmatism
• Lead coaching conversations and workshops that sharpen how managers develop their teams - define what every Basis manager is accountable for, and build the programming that gets them there
• Extend our people infrastructure and operating rhythms so they get stronger with scale, not more manual
• Use data and trends across your teams to spot organizational risk early and recommend action before it compounds
