Regional People Partner

We are a global technology group built for what's next, offering high-calibre professionals the platform for high-stakes work — the kind of work that defines an entire career. When you join us, you're not just taking on projects — you're solving problems that don't even have answers yet.

You will join an exclusive roster of talent that global leaders, including Google, Snap, Diageo, PayPal, and Jaguar Land Rover, call when deadlines seem impossible, when others have already tried and failed, and when the solution absolutely has to work.

Forget routine consultancy. You will operate where technology, design, and human behaviour meet to deliver tangible outcomes, fast. This is work that leaves a mark — work you'll be proud to tell your friends about.

We are looking for a Regional People Partner, an experienced senior People professional with deep knowledge of Philippine employment law, a track record of post-acquisition integration, and the commercial acumen to operate as a true strategic partner.

We look for people who embody:

• Innovation to solve the hardest problems
• Accountability for every result
• Integrity always
  

About the Role

This is a senior, strategic People Partnering role with genuine regional authority. You will lead the People Partner function across the Philippines, setting the strategy, influencing the Executive team, and delivering tangible outcomes at pace.

This role is designed for impact, and we believe our best work happens when we connect. While we operate a flexible model, we expect you to spend four (4) days on site at our Delivery Centre for collaboration and leadership engagement.
