About the role
As the Principal HR Business Partner for PV Commerce Tech, you'll partner directly with Tech executives who are reshaping how millions experience entertainment. You'll be more than just an HR leader – you'll drive organizational capability that ultimately leads to business impact. You’ll identify and drive the highest impact people initiatives - from organizational structure, operating models, and decision rights, to driving culture and shaping an engaged workforce that embraces AI and the future of streaming.
The ideal candidate isn't just looking for another HR role – they're seeking to make their mark on an industry in transformation. Your experience should demonstrate success in driving change at scale, with a track record of guiding senior leaders through complex organizational challenges. You'll bring both the strategic vision to anticipate future needs and the practical expertise to execute flawlessly on day-to-day talent operations.
The role demands someone equally comfortable analyzing workforce metrics as they are ideating how AI adoption can drive the business forward, or advising senior leaders on sensitive topics. You'll act as strategist, coach, and innovation partner – all in service of building the teams that will define the future of entertainment. If you're energized by the prospect of building high-performing teams in a dynamic, global environment, and can commit to occasional travel (10-15%), we want to hear your story.
