Senior People Partner
About The Position
KOHO is undergoing a significant transformation, moving from a traditional HR function to a modern People Enablement model. This approach treats the employee experience with the same rigor, ownership, and focus on friction reduction as great product teams treat user experience. The Senior People Business Partner is a crucial part of this system, involved in both strategy and execution. This role involves partnering with people managers to build high-performing teams, owning the infrastructure for reliable and scalable people operations, and continuously improving systems that shape the KOHO employee experience.
