We are focused on automating highly manual tasks to tackle long-standing problems in claims and set a new standard for TPAs, insurance technology providers, and adjusters alike.

If building a leading TPA and the prospect of tackling the long-standing challenges of the claims role sounds exciting, we can't wait to meet you.

About the role

We are looking for a seasoned Senior People Operations Business Partner to serve as a trusted strategic partner across our business, with a primary focus on Technology and Operations — while also supporting other functions, including Claims, as business needs evolve. This role sits at the intersection of people strategy and business execution — someone who can build, advise, and deliver independently while seamlessly integrating into our existing HR structure and team.

You will work closely with leaders across the organization to drive people programs that are both pragmatic and forward-thinking. This is a role for someone who thrives in a fast-moving, ever-changing environment and knows how to earn the trust of technical and operationally minded leaders.

What you'll do

Serve as a trusted HR partner across business functions — including Technology, Operations, and Claims when needed — advising leadership on all people-related matters, including succession planning, talent development, and employee relations

Build and maintain strong relationships with business leaders to understand their goals and proactively align people strategies to drive outcomes

Lead and support performance management cycles, including goal-setting, reviews, and calibrations

Partner to design, refine, and implement compensation frameworks and leveling structures that are competitive, equitable, and scalable — across a range of functions and geographies

Identify trends using people data and metrics; translate insights into actionable recommendations for leaders

Drive change management efforts as the business evolves, ensuring employees and managers are supported through transitions

Collaborate cross-functionally to deliver cohesive, integrated people programs

Ensure compliance with employment laws and HR best practices across all supported teams

Operate with a high degree of autonomy while aligning to the broader People Operations strategy, processes, and standards

Qualifications

7+ years of progressive HR/People Operations experience, with significant time spent supporting business functions with complex people needs

Demonstrated experience developing or contributing to compensation structures, job architecture, or leveling frameworks — particularly for technical roles

Deep understanding of people dynamics, culture, and talent challenges across diverse business functions

Proven ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and drive initiatives from concept to completion without heavy oversight

Strong business acumen with the ability to connect people strategy to business outcomes

Excellent communication and influencing skills — comfortable presenting to and challenging senior stakeholders when needed
