From the original posting

HRBP, GTM

We're hiring a Senior HR Business Partner to support our rapidly scaling Go-to-Market organization. This person will partner closely with senior leaders across Sales, Marketing, Business Operations, and Recruiting to help build high-performing, durable teams in a fast-moving environment. This is not a traditional HRBP role. You'll operate as a strategic thought partner and hands-on builder in a high-talent-density company where expectations are high and the pace is fast.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Partner Closely with GTM Leadership: Act as a trusted advisor to leaders across Sales, Marketing, Business Operations, and Recruiting; coach managers and leaders on performance, feedback, team health, organizational changes, and leadership effectiveness; support high-stakes decision-making and help leaders navigate rapid growth and ambiguity; raise the bar on accountability, talent density, and leadership quality across the organization

  • Drive Org Design and Talent Strategy: Partner on org design, headcount planning, team structure, leveling, and mobility; help leaders build scalable, high-performing teams with clear ownership and accountability; identify organizational gaps and proactively solve for talent, structure, and execution challenges; support thoughtful scaling without introducing unnecessary process or complexity

  • Own Performance and Employee Experience: Drive and operationalize performance management, calibrations, promotions, onboarding, engagement, and development programs; navigate employee relations and sensitive situations with strong judgment, empathy, and pragmatism; ensure high standards are upheld consistently while maintaining a strong employee experience; help build lightweight, high-quality systems that scale with the business

  • Build and Scale the Function: Partner cross-functionally with Recruiting, Compensation, Legal, Finance, and People Ops; build People infrastructure and operating rhythms from the ground up; bring structure, urgency, and follow-through to a fast-moving environment; operate with high ownership and jump into tactical work when needed

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • 8+ years of experience in HRBP, People Partner, or related leadership roles supporting high-growth GTM organizations

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

  • Strong expertise in organizational design, performance management, leadership coaching, and talent strategy

  • Excellent judgment and ability to navigate complex, high-stakes situations

  • Comfortable operating with ambiguity and minimal structure

  • Pragmatic, direct, highly execution-oriented, and deeply collaborative

  • Ability to influence senior leaders through credibility and partnership, not process

  • View HR as a core business function, not a support function

  • Care deeply about leadership quality, accountability, and talent density

  • Prefer simple, high-quality systems over heavy process

  • Thrive in fast-moving, high-expectation environments

  • Enjoy building from first principles and operating close to the business

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

  • This role is based in New York City (SoHo) with an expectation of domestic and international travel as needed

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:

The annual compensation range for this role is listed below.

Annual Salary:

$145,000 - $185,000 USD

Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience.
