The posting

Lead HR Business Partner

Location: Austin, TX or San Carlos, CA Reports to: Sr. Director of Human Resources

About the Role

Natera is looking for a Lead HR Business Partner with deep Employee Relations expertise to serve as both a strategic advisor and a hands-on partner to our business. You will spend more than half your time on employee relations: advising leaders, conducting investigations, and resolving complex issues, while also shaping people programs that support a high-performing, inclusive, and accountable culture. You will support a mix of lab-based and office-based teams, so you’ll need to be comfortable working on-site with employees in a fast-paced, regulated lab environment.

What You’ll Do

Employee Relations (50%+ of role)

  • Serve as the primary ER resource for managers and employees, providing advice, coaching, and resolution on complex workplace issues
  • Lead thorough, compliant investigations in partnership with internal legal counsel, and manage associated risk
  • Analyze ER trends and metrics to identify root causes and recommend solutions
  • Partner with HR leadership to reinforce a culture of respect, inclusion, and accountability

HR Business Partnership

  • Advise leaders on compensation, benefits, performance management, and team development
  • Lead and support HR programs including engagement, onboarding, offboarding, talent development, and training
  • Contribute to workforce planning, succession planning, and retention strategies
  • Partner with recruiting and hiring managers to attract top talent, and participate in interviews as appropriate
  • Assess development needs and coach managers and employees with actionable feedback
  • Stay close to the employee experience through regular on-site presence, monitoring engagement and acting on what you learn
  • Identify and drive HR process improvements that raise functional excellence

What You’ll Bring

Required

  • Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business, Education, or equivalent experience
  • 8+ years as an HR Business Partner in a biotech, life sciences, or high-tech environment
  • Demonstrated experience independently leading workplace investigations from intake through resolution
  • Strong working knowledge of California and federal employment law
  • Experience supporting both exempt and non-exempt populations
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
  • Ability to travel approximately 15%

Preferred

  • Experience supporting lab, manufacturing, or shift-based workforces
  • Experience with an HRIS or ATS (Workday, Greenhouse, or similar)
  • PHR/SPHR/SHRM-CP/SHRM-SCP or investigation-specific certification

Skills and Attributes

  • Proven ability to coach and influence leaders at all levels
  • Strong analytical skills, with the ability to turn data into action plans
  • Sound judgment and composure in sensitive, high-stakes situations
  • Ability to manage multiple overlapping projects independently in a fast-paced environment
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
  • Business acumen and a creative, solutions-oriented approach to HR

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
