About the Role

We are seeking a dynamic, strategic HR Business Partner to lead the People & Organization strategy for our client's Corporate Functions, including Operations, Finance, Legal, and Regulatory Affairs .

This is a highly visible role requiring a senior HR leader who can operate with significant autonomy, serve as a trusted advisor to executive leaders, and independently drive people strategies that support business priorities. The ideal candidate is comfortable navigating complexity, influencing at all levels, and operating in a global, matrixed environment.

This is not a program delivery role—it is an opportunity for an experienced HR professional to shape strategy, challenge thinking, and deliver meaningful organizational impact.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and execute the people strategy for assigned Corporate Functions, aligning business priorities with enterprise People & Organization objectives.
• Serve as a strategic advisor to senior leaders, providing counsel on organizational effectiveness, workforce planning, talent, leadership, and change.
• Lead organizational design, operating model optimization, workforce planning, and capability-building initiatives.
• Drive succession planning, talent development, leadership effectiveness, and employee engagement strategies.
• Partner with HR Centers of Excellence to deliver integrated solutions across talent, organizational development, total rewards, and other key areas.
• Translate global HR strategies and enterprise initiatives into practical solutions that support regional business needs.
• Leverage data and insights to influence decisions and measure the impact of people initiatives.
• Support transformation efforts, including evolving workforce models and AI-enabled ways of working.

What We're Looking For

We are looking for a proactive, business-minded HR leader who thrives in an environment requiring ownership, judgment, and agility.

The ideal candidate brings:

• Significant experience as an HR Business Partner supporting corporate or enabling functions in a complex, matrixed organization.
• Demonstrated ability to operate independently with minimal oversight and manage competing priorities effectively.
• Executive presence and credibility with senior leaders, with the ability to influence and challenge constructively.
• Strong experience in organizational design, workforce planning, talent strategy, succession planning, and change management.
• Experience partnering across global teams and translating enterprise strategies into local execution.
• Strong business acumen and the ability to use data and analytics to drive decisions.
• Experience working within an HR model that leverages Centers of Excellence and shared services.
• A collaborative, adaptable, and forward-thinking approach.
• Experience in luxury, retail, consumer products, or similarly dynamic industries is preferred.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact as a strategic HR partner within a global organization. You will have the autonomy to shape people strategy, influence executive decision-making, and help build the future of the organization.

In addition to meaningful work, you'll enjoy:

• Bonus-eligible compensation
• Outstanding benefits and competitive perks
• Collaborative, people-first culture
• Hybrid schedule (3 days onsite in Piscataway, NJ (Central New Jersey) / 2 days remote)
• Relocation assistance available for qualified candidates
