Global Senior HR Director, Philadelphia, PA (US)

A well-respected financial services and technology company, this midsized company has an impressive global footprint and is experiencing a period of rapid growth. This innovative organization has a highly educated and technical workforce with a collaborative culture that is always looking for new ideas that improve ways of working.

This role reports to the Head of Human Resources, and will partner with the Chief Technology Officer. This is a truly global role responsible for running HR for a critical function of the business. This position will offer the opportunity to drive the strategic HR agenda, but at the same time will also be in the details and execution focused. It drives organizational effectiveness, and will help develop and implement critical and sustainable HR processes to support the aggressive business growth agenda. This is a hands-on role which interacts closely with senior stakeholders and employees of all levels.

A background in financial services or technology is required. The ideal candidate would have worked closely with technology organizations and should be naturally curious and enjoy dealing with data-driven and highly educated employee groups. They should be adept at managing senior stakeholder relationships. International/global exposure working cross-culturally is essential. Recent experience driving transformation, change, and innovation on a global level is also required. This position requires exceptional HR partnering expertise, and experience working with CoEs in a global organization. We are seeking a ‘player/coach’ who is hands-on and adept at bringing structure to an organization without over-engineering.

A thriving and growing financial services and technology organization. A culture that supports innovation and is hungry for new ideas providing a great opportunity to quickly make an impact.

You need to be hands-on and comfortable with ambiguity to be successful. Candidates used to organizations with rigid processes are unlikely to thrive.
