People Partner

Who you are

• Solid experience as a strategic People Partner or HR Business Partner in a high-growth or fast-changing business, ideally tech or SaaS, partnering directly with product or engineering leadership
• A commercial mindset: able to connect the business issue behind a people problem and the people issue behind a business problem, with a track record of turning that into commercial outcomes
• Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and make decisions stick without relying on formal authority
• Confident using people metrics (attrition, engagement, hiring velocity, time to fill) to diagnose what's really going on, not just report on it
• Evidence of shaping how a People team works, not just delivering inside your own area, for example building a framework or fixing a broken process

What the job involves

• Why this role exists: To give our Technology and Product teams a genuine strategic partner who shapes and owns the people strategy behind their goals, not someone who just runs HR process
• There's genuine room to bring your own ideas to the wider People Partner team: templates, calibration frameworks, how a restructure gets structured, and shape those alongside your peers rather than working them out alone in your own corner
• We're growing, and a lot of the people strategy isn't fixed yet. You'll have a real say in shaping it, not just delivering against decisions someone else already made
• You'll support Technology and Product, in a way that fits how we do things at Redgate
• This isn't a role about running HR process. You'll operate as a genuine strategic partner to the Technology and Product leadership teams, helping shape, own, and deliver the people strategy that drives their goals and, in turn, Redgate's wider goals
• You'll sit inside the leadership team's regular rhythm, seeing the roadmap and trade-offs early enough to shape them, not just react once there's a people problem
• Full ownership of the people strategy for Technology and Product: headcount plan, org design, succession, and retention, agreed directly with the functional exec
• Real thought leadership beyond your own patch: spot patterns across functions (promotion criteria that don't hold up, gaps in how senior hires are onboarded) and bring them to the wider People Partner team
• Coach and challenge leaders directly, including pushing back on a VP or exec when the data or your judgement says they've got it wrong
• Find practical ways to bring AI into how the function and the People Partner team work, not as a bolt-on

The application process

• Your application will be reviewed by a person. We don't use AI or automated tools to assess applications, and every profile is read by one of our Talent Partners
