Role
Who you are
- 7+ years of HR experience
- Experience as an HRBP in a more mature or later stage company within the technology sector, as well as in an earlier stage, high growth, fast paced environment
- If experience is exclusively in later stage companies, must have worked with a technology focused client group
- If experience is at both an early stage tech startup and then a mature non-tech company, that suffices even if they did not support a technical client group
- High agility and willingness to change and adapt as priorities evolve
- Expertise in building relationships based on trust with leaders at all levels
- A focus on leading with an Enterprise Mindset
- A deep sense of empathy and understanding for the needs of diverse groups of people
- Ability to strike a balance between strategic partnership-building and getting things done
- Ability to drive programs forward through their own project management capabilities
- Comfort with interpreting and using people data to tell a story and translating it into actionable strategy
What the job involves
- By partnering with a set of client groups which could include groups like Data Science, Infrastructure or Customer Trust and Safety, you’ll implement key people programs across the departments, and you’ll support our leaders in tackling some of the toughest problems in the financial & tech industries
- This is a critical role on the PeopleX team that will help to build and maintain initiatives, manage operational processes, and deliver programs that help people succeed
- Advise and influence senior and/or executive leaders: You’ll enable the technology organization to solve critical and complex business challenges by building close partnerships with some of our most senior leaders in engineering, security and privacy, product, and research and design, and by obtaining a deep understanding of Robinhood’s business and the foundational role that our Infrastructure Team plays
- Create and execute a people strategy aligned with business goals: By working alongside business leaders, you’ll bring together your people expertise with knowledge of our business to create and execute on a people strategy that proactively grows, develops, and engages our talent
- Coach and develop managers: You’ll leverage your experience in change management, building high-performing teams, and navigating difficult conversations to coach managers and leaders and to set them up for success from onboarding through the full range of the employee journey
- Manage organizational change: You’ll collaborate with other People team members to effectively communicate and land organizational changes by advocating for your group’s specific needs and facilitating company-wide communications and trainings
- Advise on compensation design: By partnering directly with our compensation team, you’ll help drive decisions that align our culture with our reward strategies while ensuring internal parity
- Champion Robinhood's technical culture: You’ll be responsible for championing and stewarding the culture of our Engineering teams - ensuring that their unique voices, perspectives, and challenges are heard
- Roll up your sleeves: From data entry to ad-hoc administrative work, you’re ready to jump in and do what it takes to support our people operations and programs
- Project-manage complex programs: You’ll work closely with the business, COEs, and fellow people partners to drive the project management of certain programs where we’re building the foundation of the technology group. As we scale quickly, we need to make sure our foundations (how we level, define career paths, measure and reward success) are growing too
Our take
For years, traditional brokers ruled the share trading realm, charging hefty fees that locked out everyday investors. Robinhood emerged as a disruptor, offering commission-free trading and opening the door to a new generation. Since then, expectations have continued to evolve, with investors looking not just to lower costs, but for simpler tools, clearer information, and guidance that makes the market easier to understand.
Robinhood was built to meet those changing expectations, designed from the start as a mobile-first platform that makes investor more accessible and less intimidating for people at every stage of their financial journey. Through its app, users can trade stocks and other financial instruments while benefiting from a clean interface and built-in educational support, helping them move from curiosity to confidence without unnecessary complexity.
Recently, Robinhood has strenghtned its impact too, particularly in the UK. With the launch of AI-powered Digests within its Robinhood Cortex assistant that helps users understand what's driving stock movements in plain English, while upcoming options trading and expanded educational resources add flexibility and depth. Together, these steps position Robinhood as a platform evolving alongside its users, blending technology and education to stay ahead in an ever-changing investment landscape.
