HR Business Partner - Trust and Safety
Responsibilities
The HRBP Trust and Safety team partners with leaders across the product, policy, operations, and technical organizations that support platform safety. We translate organizational priorities into people strategies, shaping workforce plans, organizational design, talent development, performance, and employee engagement across a globally distributed organization.
We support a specialized global organization where policy, product, operations, and technology must remain closely connected as the platform environment evolves. This requires us to understand how specialized teams work together, anticipate evolving capability needs, and develop people strategies that connect global priorities with regional context. By combining organizational insight with business and workforce data, we help teams adapt as technologies, organizational priorities, and ways of working evolve.
You will build trusted partnerships with leaders and collaborate across HR functions to guide important organization and talent decisions. Your work may span organizational design, workforce and succession planning, leadership development, performance, culture, and engagement. You will stay close to the organization as strategies are implemented, seeing how people decisions shape the teams supporting platform safety and using those insights to strengthen what comes next.
As an HR Business Partner (HRBP) for T&S, you will act as a trusted strategic advisor to organizational leadership. You will architect and execute end-to-end people strategies, drive organizational design and effectiveness, and cultivate a resilient, high-performing culture across globally distributed teams.
