About the role

  • This is a full-time hybrid position based in New York.
  • The expectation is for this individual to work from our Midtown Manhattan office 3 days per week.
  • This range represents the base salary only.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the primary HR point of contact for Petra's co-source and lift-out client teams, building trusted relationships with client-facing partners and each team's on-the-ground leadership
  • Own and administer bespoke policies and HR terms unique to each co-source and lift-out engagement, ensuring consistency with the underlying client agreement while staying aligned with Petra's broader HR framework
  • Manage and support the lift-out process end-to-end - pre-close diligence and planning, Day 1 transition and onboarding, and post-close integration - coordinating with Partnerships, Legal, and Payroll to ensure a clean handoff into Petra's HR infrastructure
  • Support performance-cycle execution and compensation planning for co-source/lift-out employees, coordinating between client expectations and Petra's internal processes
  • Maintain data integrity and reporting for this population across HRIS and other HR systems, ensuring accurate headcount, org, and compliance records per client engagement
  • Partner with the Senior Manager and broader People team on ad hoc strategic projects - benchmarking, headcount planning, and HR infrastructure - with a focus on scaling support as this segment continues to grow
  • Demonstrated ability to independently manage full-cycle programs and relationships with minimal oversight
  • Clear, professional communicator, comfortable engaging with client-facing partners and senior leadership
  • Hybrid work environment that offers flexibility and supports work-life balance

Requirements

  • 3-5+ years in HR/People Operations, ideally within financial services, professional services, or another environment involving embedded, outsourced, or client-facing teams
  • Comfort managing multiple concurrent stakeholder relationships with distinct policies and terms - there's no single standard playbook here
  • Hands-on experience with HRIS and performance management platforms (e.g., Rippling, Lattice, or similar)
  • Proven ability to navigate complex and fast-changing organizational structures
  • Ability to professionally handle confidential information with discretion

Compensation

  • The compensation range for this position is $110,000 - $130,000 per year.
  • This range represents the base salary only.
  • Actual pay will depend on factors such as qualifications, experience, and skills.
  • 401(k) employer match at 100% of your contributions up to 5% of compensation, with immediate vesting, so you start building long-term savings right away
