What You’ll Do:

As a People Business Partner supporting our Data Center teams, you’ll be both hands-on and strategic—able to roll up your sleeves to address immediate needs while shaping initiatives that drive long-term organizational effectiveness, engagement, and growth. You’ll partner closely with leaders, managers, and cross-functional stakeholders to align our People strategy with business priorities, and you’ll use data to inform impactful decisions.

This is a senior-level opportunity (IC4)—perfect for someone who loves being both strategic and hands-on in a dynamic, fast-moving company.

Who You Are: 

Your impact will be felt across various dimensions:

• Strategic Partnership: Provide strategic and tactical guidance to Data Center leaders and people managers, leveraging your expertise to influence engagement, development, and retention strategies.
  
  
• Building and Growing: Thrive in environments with minimal structure. You bring innovative ideas and the scrappiness to make them real.
  
  
• Hands-On Execution: Regularly visit our data centers in the region to connect with leaders and employees directly, ensuring initiatives are grounded in operational realities.
  
  
• Data-Driven Insights: Use data to identify trends and opportunities, guiding the design and implementation of impactful People projects and programs.
  
  
• Change Management: Lead large-scale change initiatives in our dynamic, fast-paced environment, ensuring seamless transitions and organizational alignment.
  
  
• Talent Management: Partner with department leaders to drive initiatives such as performance reviews and organizational design.
  
  
• Employee Relations: Offer counsel and guidance on complex employee relations matters, fostering a culture of trust and transparency.
  
  
• Collaboration: Partner closely with People Ops, Talent, and cross-functional teams to develop and deploy programs that empower our workforce.
