HR Business Partner

The HR Business Partner is a critical role, as Percona’s strength is our people, and having a true partner who can understand staff motivators and drivers, as well as team dynamics, is vitally important for organisational and team success. The HR Business Partner will help with program development and deployment while monitoring outcomes. One of the most important aspects of the role is the ability to effectively manage staff relations and field a variety of inquiries. This person will demonstrate an unwavering commitment to providing exceptional customer service, apply an authentic curiosity, be comfortable stretching themselves and others and extract vulnerability, and ultimately be a trusted resource to many. Act as a point of contact for staff relations matters, working to resolve conflicts and promote a positive workplace culture. Partner with individual contributors and leaders at various levels. Effectively navigate between the tactical and strategic priorities and feel comfortable with variety. Build and foster relationships with leaders, offering insights on organizational design and people-related strategy. Own the staff experience from onboarding to offboarding and everything in between. Develop a deep understanding of the business to guide and influence leaders on talent-related matters. Bring back business intelligence to People & Culture leadership as a proactive behavior for program development to make Percona a more effective and enlightened place to work. Apply knowledge in areas such as performance management, succession planning, coaching, people data analysis, staff relations, and recognition programs. Work alongside other teams in the People & Culture department to implement solutions that support business growth. Lead various people-centric initiatives, including performance evaluations, engagement surveys, talent reviews, and promotion considerations. Anticipate team and organizational needs, make recommendations, and implement solutions proactively. Create and implement effective programs with a focus on high adoption, contributing innovative ideas to improve HR processes. Proficiently navigate the HRIS (HiBob) and facilitate the adoption of the people engagement platform (15Five). Be the HR point of contact within your assigned groups and showing a high level of technical aptitude within HR systems and flexing between administrative asks and more complex nuanced staffing matters. Perform other duties as assigned.
