  • Ensure compliance with labor legislation across Costa Rica, Colombia, and Ecuador.
  • Manage HR-related risks and partner with legal and external advisors when required.

Data, Reporting & Governance

  • Implement standardized HR metrics and monthly reporting.
  • Ensure integrity and consistency of people data across all locations.
  • Provide HR insights to support business planning and leadership decision-making.

Global Collaboration

  • Act as the primary HR contact for LATAM within a global matrix organization.
  • Collaborate with international HR teams to ensure alignment of people practices and share best practices.

What We're Looking For

Essential Requirements

Minimum 3 years of experience as a standalone HR Business Partner supporting multiple countries in LATAM.

Strong knowledge of labor legislation and HR practices in LATAM, ideally including Costa Rica, Colombia, and Ecuador.
