Role
Who you are
- 10+ years of experience in People Partnering, HRBP, or closely related roles in high-growth, global organizations
- Deep experience partnering with GTM organizations in fast-scaling environments
- Strong employee relations expertise, including sound judgment in assessing people and business risk
- Proven ability to build trusted relationships with senior leaders and influence without authority
- Comfort operating at the Executive level — able to challenge, align, and coach leaders with credibility
- Strong business acumen with the ability to quickly ramp, dive into details, and operate effectively amid ambiguity
- Excellent communication skills, including clear writing, crisp synthesis, and direct recommendations
- Experience partnering across multiple geographies (e.g., US, EMEA, APAC)

What the job involves
- We’re hiring our first People Partner at Hightouch — a senior, fully autonomous partner who will help shape how we support managers and employees as we continue to scale globally
- You’ll work closely with GTM leaders and managers across the company, acting as a trusted advisor on everything from employee relations to performance to compensation
- You won’t inherit a fully built playbook — you’ll help create it. If you’ve worked in a high-growth, global startup and enjoy operating with judgment, nuance, and impact, this role gives you the opportunity to leave a meaningful imprint on how People Partnering is done at Hightouch. This role reports directly to the Head of People Operations
- Own employee relations across our global organization, handling sensitive and complex situations with sound judgment, and working closely with our EOR partners to navigate local employment laws
- Partner with managers to navigate performance management, feedback, role clarity, and growth conversations with employees
- Design and deliver coaching and training for managers that raises the bar
- Partner closely with Legal, Finance, and People Ops to assess risk, ensure compliance, and drive sound people decisions across geographies
- Support managers with compensation decisions, helping them make thoughtful, consistent calls within our frameworks and constraints
- Contribute to the development and scaling of People programs by pressure-testing what works in practice and refining approaches based on real manager needs
- Help evolve our People Ops processes and systems so they keep pace with rapid growth while setting us up well for what’s next
