About this role
Role Overview
Design and build the People Partnering model for a fast-scaling, product-led AI company.
Establish a strategic and consultative approach that ties People decisions directly to business outcomes.
Develop frameworks for organisation design, headcount planning, succession, talent management, and change management.
Anticipate organisational needs ahead of growth.
Ensure we are set up to scale sustainably across regions and functions.
Partner on workforce planning, role design, and leadership capability building.
Act as a trusted advisor to executives in Commercial, Product & Engineering, and Operations.
Bring rigour, insight, and challenge to leadership decision-making.
Translate business strategy into talent and organisation-scaling strategies.
Partner with our People Ops team to use insights, dashboards, AI tools, and predictive data models to inform decision-making.
Evaluate and implement AI-native processes that allow the People team to scale faster than headcount.
Champion experimentation and automation across the People Partnering function.
Model Synthesia’s values and help leaders embed them across rapidly expanding teams.
Contribute to a healthy, high-performance culture during a period of fast evolution.
Requirements
Extensive experience in People Business Partnering roles, including partnering closely with commercial GTM teams.
Experience supporting high-growth tech or scaling organisations. Ideally have led function during hypergrowth: from 300-1000+ employees.
Ability to manage complexity across global regions, with a focus on UK, US, France and DACH regions.
Demonstrated ability to design and evolve org structures during rapid scale and leadership coaching.
A data-driven, structured problem-solver who uses insights, dashboards, and metrics in every recommendation.
A builder mentality — scrappy, adaptable, unphased by ambiguity, and able to switch between strategy and execution.
Clear, confident communication and executive-level influencing skills.
