  • Use insight to drive impact: Apply people analytics and business insight to anticipate organizational needs and shape practical solutions. Champion an inclusive, high-performing culture grounded in our 4i Values.
  • Work across HR: Collaborate with global HR colleagues and Centers of Excellence to deliver integrated talent and organizational solutions and an exceptional colleague experience.

What you’ll bring

  • 10+ years of progressive HR experience.
  • A degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Psychology, or a related field
  • Success as a strategic HR partner to senior and executive leaders, ideally in a global, matrixed organization.
  • Business and financial acumen, with the ability to turn business priorities into practical, high-impact people strategies.
  • Experience leading organizational transformation, change management, organizational design, and strategic workforce planning.
  • A record of developing and delivering strategies for talent management, succession, leadership development, engagement, performance, and retention.
  • Executive presence and the ability to influence, challenge, coach, and build trusted relationships across functions, geographies, and organizational levels.
  • Skill in coaching and developing leaders, strengthening team effectiveness, and building organizational capability.
  • Strong communication, presentation, consultation, and stakeholder management skills.
  • Analytical skills and a data-driven approach to decision-making, with the ability to turn insights into action.
  • Experience using HR technology, analytics, and process improvement to improve organizational effectiveness and the colleague experience.
  • The ability to navigate ambiguity, balance priorities, and work effectively in a fast-paced global environment.

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.
