This isn't your standard HR role. We are looking for a Senior Employee Relations & People Partner to help us build a brand-new Global ER function from the ground up, while simultaneously serving as the People pulse for our India and APAC operations.
This is a high-impact, dual-scope role for a heavy-hitter in international HR. You will spend 70% of your time architecting our global ER blueprint and managing end-to-end international cases across multiple continents, and 30% of your time partnering with Senior local leadership and our 250+ team members in India/APAC. If you have only managed HR or ER within the domestic Indian market, this role will not be a match.
1. Architecting the Global ER Blueprint and Managing cases
You won't just follow the rules; you’ll help write them. Partnering with senior leadership, you will:
Design & Build: Shape and evolve our global ER frameworks, policies, and scalable processes - from investigations and case management to performance and exits.
Lead Complex Cases: Take the lead on ER cases across multiple regions, ensuring fairness, consistency, and compliance on a global scale.
Innovate with Tech: Leverage AI and automation to make ER processes more efficient and data-driven.
Empower Managers: Create the playbooks and guidelines that help our global managers lead with confidence.
2. Leading the People Agenda in India & APAC
Strategic Partnering: Act as a conduit between the business and the People function, attending monthly Leadership meetings to align People priorities with business growth.
Coach & Develop: Support managers on everything from team dynamics and performance to talent initiatives and workforce planning.
Drive Inclusion: Own and lead regional DE&I initiatives that make a real difference in the India region.
Be the Bridge: Ensure local nuances are reflected in global designs while keeping regional practices aligned with our global standards.
Must have experience
8+ years of HR experience, with a proven track record of hands-on experience managing complex ER cases and investigations across multiple international jurisdictions (e.g., US, EMEA, or LATAM) — not just within India.
What We’re Looking For
We are looking for a high-judgment individual who navigates ambiguity with ease and acts with unwavering integrity.
Expertise: A mastery of India’s labor laws combined with a "global-first" mindset and strong exposure to multi-country environments.
Mindset: A structured problem-solver who is as comfortable with high-level strategy as they are with hands-on execution.
Tech Literacy: A forward-thinking approach to People work, including comfort with digital tools and AI.
Communication: The ability to influence stakeholders and communicate complex ideas with clarity and pragmatism.
Passion for Excellence: You have an eagle eye for detail and a genuine passion for high-quality output. You don't just ‘get things done’ - you ensure they are executed with precision, consistency, and a commitment to excellence.
