SymphonyAI is a PE-backed enterprise AI software company serving industrial, retail, financial services, and media clients globally. We operate across more than 20 countries with approximately 2,500 employees and circa $450M in revenue. We are in the midst of a significant transformation — building a leaner, higher-performing organization with world-class people practices at its core.
Our HR function is ~50 people strong and is undergoing its own transformation: new structure, new systems, and a new operating model. This role is being created to drive critical pieces of that agenda at pace.
The Head of HR Strategy & Enablement is a rare hybrid: part chief of staff to the CHRO, part internal communications lead, part process architect, part L&D practitioner. You will own the connective tissue of the HR function — ensuring that our strategy translates into communication, our processes run efficiently, our people are developed, and our CHRO is operating at his highest leverage.
You will work with a high degree of autonomy across all four pillars below, partnering closely with the CHRO and the HR leadership team to drive delivery.
Job Description
WHAT YOU'LL DO:
1. Chief of Staff to the CHRO
- Manage the CHRO's priorities, agenda, and follow-through — ensuring the right things get done at the right time
- Own the rhythm of the HR leadership team: biweekly HRLT meetings, quarterly planning, and board/Chairman preparation
- Prepare and quality-assure executive-level materials including QBRs, Chairman meeting decks and Board HR updates
- Track strategic commitments and surface blockers before they become problems
2. Internal Communications
- Own SymphonyAI's HR internal communications strategy in close partnership with marketing
- Draft all-hands communications, change management messaging, leader briefings, and CHRO announcements with precision and clarity
- Build a communications calendar aligned to the HR transformation roadmap and the broader company operating rhythm
- Coach HR leaders on effective communication with their teams; create templates and standards the whole function can use
- Ensure consistency of tone, brand, and substance across all HR-originated communications
3. Process Management & Operational Excellence
- Map, design, and continuously improve core HR processes — from onboarding to off-boarding, performance to compensation
- Lead Lean / Six Sigma initiatives within the HR function, driving measurable efficiency and quality improvements
- Own the HR operating model: governance cadences, decision rights, and cross-functional interface protocols
- Build and maintain the HR data infrastructure: headcount dashboards, workforce analytics, and executive reporting in partnership with HR Operations
- Champion and advocate for an AI-first, AI-fast approach across everything we do
4. Learning & Development
- Assist the CHRO to design learning initiatives for people managers and leaders across the organization
- In partnership with Head of HR Operations and IT, curate and deploy AI-enabled learning tools and platforms, making L&D faster, more personalized, and more scalable
- Support the implementation of SymphonyAI's competency framework, 9-box talent process, and Management Principles
- Measure the impact of L&D investment and iterate based on data
