- Creating clarity and consistency. You help leaders apply People policies and practices consistently across an exempt and non-exempt workforce, partnering closely with Talent Activation, People Operations, and Legal when needed.

Who You Are- You're an experienced People Business Partner with experience supporting a multi-state, fast-paced workforce that includes both exempt and non-exempt employees. You have at least 5 years of experience in an HRBP or People Partner role with strong emphasis on supporting non-exempt populations; even better if you have firsthand experience working in a frontline or customer-facing operational role, giving you a practical understanding of the day-to-day realities facing the teams you'll support.
- You know how to develop first time managers, especially those on the frontlines. You know how to meet newer leaders where they are, ask the right questions, give direct feedback with care, and build credibility quickly.
- You're willing to roll up your sleeves. You enjoy being close to the day-to-day work, diving into the details, and working alongside earlier career leaders to move issues forward. You use that context to make better decisions, identify patterns, and improve how the organization operates.
- You bring excellent judgment. You can balance empathy, risk, and business needs; handle sensitive information with discretion; and know when to act independently versus pull in the right partners.
- You're a high-performance operator. You manage a dynamic portfolio of work, follow through reliably, and bring structure and momentum to ambiguous, complex situations.
- You're a clear, adaptable communicator. You can simplify complex issues, write strong documentation, and tailor your approach for employees of differing levels and roles.
- You're analytical and systems-minded. You use data and business context to identify trends and translate recurring challenges into practical, scalable solutions.
