HRBP

About The Position

We’re looking for a Director, HR Business Partner to be the strategic right-hand to our VP, People Experience & Operations - and the primary HR presence for our entire organization. This is not a role for someone who wants to execute a set playbook. You’ll be stepping into an organization that’s scaling fast and needs a real strategic partner: someone who can hold complexity, earn trust quickly across all levels, and help us build a people function that’s world-class. The scope of this role has room to grow - including the potential to manage a team over time given this is the first of likely a larger org of HRBPs.

Requirements

8 - 12 years of progressive HR experience, with meaningful time as a HRBP or strategic HR partner at a high-growth tech or startup company
Proven track record as a trusted advisor to leaders - you’ve sat in the room, understood the business, and shaped people strategy as a result
Track record of driving talent density as an ongoing practice, not as an annual event - you help leaders spot underperformance or skill gaps early and act on them proactively
Strong employee relations background - you’ve managed complex investigations and sensitive situations with discretion, fairness, and rigor
Exceptional written and verbal communication - equally clear, credible, and calibrated whether you're talking to an executive or an individual contributor.
Strong follow-through and organizational rigor - you manage many concurrent priorities in parallel without losing the thread, and you're proactive rather than waiting to be asked.
Hands-on experience with performance management cycles and talent density management - calibrations, feedback frameworks, and coaching managers through hard conversations
Exceptional EQ and the kind of trust-building instincts that make both executives and individual contributors feel genuinely heard
Data-driven and clear-headed - you can interpret people data, spot what matters, and present it in a way that drives decisions
Comfortable with ambiguity and energized by building - you don’t wait for a perfect playbook
Based in NYC

Nice To Haves

Experience at a creator economy, marketplace, or consumer tech company
Prior people management experience (this role has a path to building a small team over time)
Background in compensation strategy or total rewards (band design, pay equity analysis)
SHRM-CP/SCP or PHR/SPHR certification

Responsibilities

Serve as the primary HR partner across ShopMy’s teams: be the go-to for employees and managers navigating anything from career development and feedback to sensitive or complex situations
Be a true thought partner to the VP of People Experience & Operations: help shape people strategy, pressure-test ideas, and co-own the work of building a best-in-class people function at a fast-moving company
Partner on manager effectiveness: build and run programs, coaching frameworks, and toolkits that make ShopMy’s managers meaningfully better at leading, developing, and retaining their teams - in close partnership with the VP of People Experience and Operations
Anchor performance management: manage the day-to-day cadence behind our annual review cycle and calibration, in partnership with the VP of People Experience and Operations
Partner with leaders on talent density and bar-raising: help them continuously assess whether their teams are meeting the bar - not just during the annual review cycle - and act early on gaps, whether through targeted coaching, role changes, or performance action
Support employee relations: navigate sensitive conversations, workplace investigations, PIPs, and exits with care, sound judgment, and the documentation rigor those situations require
Identify opportunities for learning & development: identify where the org needs to grow, design or source programs that close those gaps, and build a culture of continuous development
Inform our approach to compensation and org design: partner with leadership and Finance on leveling, pay decisions, and headcount planning as we scale given the insights you have from working closely with different team leaders
