\nNice to Have:
\nThis is a rare opportunity to be the first dedicated People Partner in the region. As a People Partner, you will serve as the primary point of contact for NA-based leaders and employees, providing in-timezone support across performance, team effectiveness, and organisational design. You will coach and develop managers across the NA org, building leadership capability as the team scales beyond its current ~40.
\nYou will partner with senior leaders on workforce planning and headcount decisions, feeding into BFL's global people strategy. You will lead employee relations matters in the US with sound judgement and a solid grasp of relevant employment law. You will act as the regional voice in broader People team conversations, surfacing NA-specific insights, risks, and opportunities to the global team.
\nIn addition to People Partnering, you will own the smooth running of core People Ops processes for NA, including employee lifecycle events, onboarding, offboarding, compliance, and HRIS hygiene. You will ensure US employment practices are compliant across every state where BFL operates, partnering with Legal where needed. You will collaborate with People Ops colleagues in Europe to maintain consistent global standards while adapting processes for the US context.
\nYou will use data and tooling to keep NA People Ops running cleanly and at scale – spot inefficiencies and fix them. You will be the person on the ground when something needs sorting fast and Europe is hours ahead.
\nThe ideal candidate Manager has 6+ years of People/HR experience, with meaningful time in a Business Partnering or People Partner role. They must have worked in tech, preferably in deep tech (AI, infrastructure, developer tooling, fintech, or similar). They should have experience working within or alongside a European-headquartered company, understanding the cultural nuances and time zone dynamics.
\nThey should have a solid command of US employment law, knowing when to act and when to escalate to counsel. They should be comfortable operating across both strategic partnering and hands-on People Ops – the hybrid nature of the role energises them. They should have strong coaching instincts and the credibility to influence VP-level stakeholders. They should have a data-informed approach, using people metrics to tell stories and drive decisions.
\nExperience as the first or only People Partner in a region, or in an early-stage/scaling environment, is a plus. Experience building or improving people processes from scratch is also a plus.
