About the role
- Associate Director - Business Manager, People Strategy
- Reporting to the HR COO, this role sits at the intersection of strategy, operations, and technology - and is built for someone who thinks rigorously, executes methodically, and connects dots across a complex, multi-workstream people function.
- We want someone who brings the structured thinking of a program manager, the analytical rigor of a strategist, and the product sensibility to ask "how does this scale?" at every turn.
Responsibilities
- COO Office & Strategic Support
- Serve as a strategic thought partner to the HR COO - supporting priority-setting, decision framing, and the management of cross-functional relationships.
- Manage the operating cadence of the HR function: governance forums, leadership updates, board and executive committee materials, and cross-functional coordination.
- Prepare high-quality strategy documents, executive presentations, and business cases that communicate people strategy to senior leadership with clarity and precision.
- People Program Design & Execution
- Partner with the People, Programs and Rewards COE to drive new people programs throughout the organization, from scoping and stakeholder alignment through build, launch, and measurement.
- Own program management across HR's cross-functional initiatives: build project plans, manage workstreams, surface risks early, and drive decisions across competing priorities.
- Serve as the bridge between HR strategy and HR technology: partner with the People Systems Director and People Analytics to ensure new programs are digitally enabled, automated where possible, and built on reliable data.
- Champion a design once, scale everywhere mindset: build programs and processes that hold up as the firm grows.
- Partner with People Analytics to synthesize workforce data into strategic insights that inform program design, headcount decisions, and executive reporting.
Requirements
- Proven track record of designing and executing complex, cross-functional programs from concept to operational scale.
- Ability to define process and functional requirements and work effectively with technical teams (Engineering, Systems, Analytics) to bring them to life.
- Familiarity with the HR systems landscape and the employee lifecycle - you don't need to configure Workday, but you should understand how it works and what it enables.
- Proficiency in tools for program management, data analysis, and executive communication (e.g., Excel, PowerPoint, and project management platforms).
Nice to have
- Financial services or high-growth technology experience strongly preferred.
- Experience supporting senior executives and navigating complex, multi-stakeholder environments.
