The Role

The Senior HR Business Partner will play a central role in shaping the people agenda for the company’s U.S. operations. Based in New York, this position reports to the VP of HR, embedding you directly into local strategy. The scope of responsibility spans the full spectrum of HR leadership. This includes talent acquisition and retention, leadership and capability development, employee engagement, performance management, and ensuring compliance with U.S. labor laws and employment practices. Beyond core HR, the role also carries responsibility for office administration and IT operations, providing an expansive and strategic platform to influence the future of the business.
