  • Share proactive insights from people data, to uncover hot spots, and ensure Notion is being proactive to retain top talent.

  • Support and help shape the 360 performance review process: manager calibrations, facilitate training sessions, compensation planning, and host office hours.

  • Coach Managers to lead through change, effectively performance manage and increase employee engagement with ongoing feedback and effective communication.

  • Provide targeted performance management support, devise and implement development plans, and enhance managers' training for improved team performance.

Skills You'll Need to Bring:

  • 10+ years of HRBP/People Partner experience; ideally at least 5+ years supporting GTM, Sales or Revenue Orgs inside SaaS/AI companies

  • Strong learning velocity and able to ramp quickly on new organizations, leaders, and evolving operating models.

  • Adept at building relationships with senior leaders and cross-functional stakeholders.

  • Demonstrated experience navigating large-scale business model and/or go-to-market transformations.

  • Solutions-oriented with an analytical approach to problem-solving.

  • Ability to remain tactful and calm in all situations.

  • Highly adaptable and will thrive in a rapidly changing, fast-paced environment.

  • Effective written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills; ability to thrive with async and global teams

  • Understanding of state and federal laws concerning labor relations.

  • You don’t need to be an AI expert, but you’re curious and willing to adopt AI tools to work smarter and deliver better results.
