Location: Pune, India  |  Experience: 15+ years, with senior HRBP and global exposure  |  Industry: Enterprise B2B SaaS / Global Tech  |  Seniority: Senior  |  Team: 1–2 direct reports

Skills and Experience Needed for This Job

15+ years of HR experience with significant senior HRBP roles in a high-growth technology or SaaS company. Genuine global experience: You have operated across multiple geographies

Strong track record as a strategic partner: You have worked directly with senior leaders and influenced organisation-level people decisions

Talent Management & Succession: Key roles have named successors with visible readiness timelines. Talent reviews result in concrete actions — promotions, development moves, or managed exits — not just documentation. Manager Effectiveness track record: You have measurably improved the quality of managers

Experience leading HR professionals: You have managed or mentored team members and know how to raise the quality of HR work in a small, lean team. Analytical mindset: You use data to make the case and to catch problems early

What Success Looks Like

Business Partnership Quality: Senior leaders actively involve you in org and people decisions. You are not informed after the fact — you are shaping the conversation. Employee Experience: Employees in your aligned business units feel supported, heard, and clear on their growth path. Engagement and retention improve in your areas. Manager Effectiveness: The quality of managers in your partnered functions improves visibly — in calibration rigour, performance conversation quality, and how they handle their lowest performers. You are not measuring attendance at workshops; you are measuring behaviour change. Retention & Attrition: Regrettable attrition in critical segments trends down. You are not waiting for exit interviews
