About the job

People Operations strives to revolutionize human resources the same way that Google has revolutionized search. We are helping to find, grow and keep the remarkable assemblage of talent who are our Googlers. You’ll be an advocate of Google’s culture and values, partnering with our business leaders to help them build their organizations and make sure all people decisions are based on data. Whether coaching our clients on how to lead their teams, navigating and resolving employee relations issues or managing programs that help develop our Googlers, you are exceptionally focused on putting them first, and being as clear and transparent as possible to help Googlers understand how people decisions get made.

The People Consultant team work directly with staff to provide personalized guidance, support, and solutions on a breadth of People Operations-related activities requiring expertise and depth across multiple organizations and specialties.

As a HR Business Partner (formerly HRBP), you will focus on Googler experience, provide timely responses, share knowledge and experiences with fellow team members, and balance individual needs with Google’s philosophy, principles, and available resources. Additionally, you’ll be responsible for coaching and consulting with staff and managers, collaborating with People Partners on programs and projects, and working as part of your team and with other People Operations (POps) teams to simplify and improve processes.

Great just isn’t good enough for our People Operations team (you probably know us better as “Human Resources”). Made up of equal parts HR professionals, former consultants, and analysts, we’re the advocates of Google’s colorful culture. In People Ops, we “find them, grow them, and keep them”. We bring the world’s most innovative people to Google and provide the programs that help them thrive. Whether recruiting the next Googler, refining our core programs, developing talent, or simply looking for ways to inject some more fun into the lives of our Googlers, we bring a data-driven approach that is reinventing the human resources field.
