Company mission
To solve the complex challenges of database management and ensure security across the DevOps lifecycle.
Role
Who you are
- Solid experience as a strategic People Partner or HR Business Partner in a high-growth or fast-changing business, ideally tech or SaaS, partnering directly with product or engineering leadership
- A commercial mindset: able to connect the business issue behind a people problem and the people issue behind a business problem, with a track record of turning that into commercial outcomes
- Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and make decisions stick without relying on formal authority
- Confident using people metrics (attrition, engagement, hiring velocity, time to fill) to diagnose what's really going on, not just report on it
- Evidence of shaping how a People team works, not just delivering inside your own area, for example building a framework or fixing a broken process
What the job involves
- Why this role exists: To give our Technology and Product teams a genuine strategic partner who shapes and owns the people strategy behind their goals, not someone who just runs HR process
- There's genuine room to bring your own ideas to the wider People Partner team: templates, calibration frameworks, how a restructure gets structured, and shape those alongside your peers rather than working them out alone in your own corner
- We're growing, and a lot of the people strategy isn't fixed yet. You'll have a real say in shaping it, not just delivering against decisions someone else already made
- You'll support Technology and Product, in a way that fits how we do things at Redgate
- This isn't a role about running HR process. You'll operate as a genuine strategic partner to the Technology and Product leadership teams, helping shape, own, and deliver the people strategy that drives their goals and, in turn, Redgate's wider goals
- You'll sit inside the leadership team's regular rhythm, seeing the roadmap and trade-offs early enough to shape them, not just react once there's a people problem
- Full ownership of the people strategy for Technology and Product: headcount plan, org design, succession, and retention, agreed directly with the functional exec
- Real thought leadership beyond your own patch: spot patterns across functions (promotion criteria that don't hold up, gaps in how senior hires are onboarded) and bring them to the wider People Partner team
- Coach and challenge leaders directly, including pushing back on a VP or exec when the data or your judgement says they've got it wrong
- Find practical ways to bring AI into how the function and the People Partner team work, not as a bolt-on
Application process
- Your application will be reviewed by a person. We don't use AI or automated tools to assess applications, and every profile is read by one of our Talent Partners
- You'll hear back within a few days. Whether it's a next step or a no, we aim to respond promptly so you're not left wondering
Our take
As businesses become increasingly dependent on data, managing databases has become more complex. Companies need to move quickly while keeping systems secure and reliable. However, many still depend on manual processes and disconnected teams, making it harder to manage modern data infrastructure, especially as AI and cloud technologies continue to grow.
Redgate is helping companies tackle these challenges through database DevOps and lifecycle management tools. Its platform helps teams automate database changes, improve collaboration, and manage systems more efficiently and securely. Redgate, then, supports organisations throughout the full database development and deployment process.
More than 200,000 data professionals worldwide use Redgate's solutions too, signifying just how strong a position it has in the market. And with recent backing from Bregal Sagemount, the company plans to accelerate product innovation and expand even further so it can keep up with the ever-growing demand for secure, scalable data management.
