Head of People Business Partners

Requirements

• You are a senior HR generalist - 10 to 15 years in, with enough breadth to cover the full spectrum and enough depth to handle the hard cases. You have personally driven performance management cycles, departures, and restructuring projects - not just advised on them. You have worked across geographies, operated daily in English, and navigated complex labour law contexts without needing a specialist for every question.
• Beyond the experience, here is what will make you stand out:
• You are financially literate : headcount costs, FP&A interfaces, and staff plan tracking are part of your day-to-day, not a stretch
• You think in systems : you build policies and frameworks that hold across cases, not just solve the issue in front of you
• You influence senior leaders without relying on authority, through rigour, relationship, and well-framed recommendations
• You manage with clarity, your team knows what is expected, where they stand, and how to grow
• You have a strong command of French labour law to engage credibly on social dialogue, departures, and restructurings
• You are fluent in written and spoken English; this is non-negotiable given the international scope
