- Partner with recruiting and hiring managers to attract top talent, and participate in interviews as appropriate
- Assess development needs and coach managers and employees with actionable feedback
- Stay close to the employee experience through regular on-site presence, monitoring engagement and acting on what you learn
- Identify and drive HR process improvements that raise functional excellence
What You’ll Bring
Required
- Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business, Education, or equivalent experience
- 8+ years as an HR Business Partner in a biotech, life sciences, or high-tech environment

Skills and Attributes
- Proven ability to coach and influence leaders at all levels
- Strong analytical skills, with the ability to turn data into action plans
