We’re constantly evolving and improving to make sure we are and always will be “Best in Class” ... and we want that for you too!

About the Role

Restaurant365 is looking for a Director, People Business Partnership to shape and lead how our People team partners with the business. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who thinks strategically, operates with urgency, and knows how to build a PBP function that scales.

You'll serve as a trusted advisor to senior leaders, lead and develop a team of People Business Partners, and drive the processes, playbooks, and operating model that make great partnership possible. Equally important - you'll champion the way AI and modern tools are changing what great HR looks like, modeling and embedding AI-forward ways of working across the team.

Why R365

This is a rare opportunity to build something - not just run it. You'll have the scope, the leadership support, and the mandate to modernize how People partnering works at a company that's scaling fast and doing it thoughtfully. If you're energized by building, leading, and staying ahead of what's next in HR, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

    • Lead, coach, and grow a high-performing PBP team - setting clear expectations, building capability, and creating a culture where great partnership is the standard

    • Serve as a strategic People advisor to executives and senior leaders, translating business priorities into workforce, talent, org design, and leadership strategies that actually move the needle

    • Own and drive workforce planning, org design, talent management, succession, and performance processes across multiple functions and growth stages

    • Build, refine, and operationalize the PBP model - including playbooks, tools, templates, and operating rhythms that improve consistency and scale across the team

    • Act as a senior escalation point for complex and sensitive employee relations matters, balancing business needs, employee experience, and risk with sound judgment

    • Partner closely with FP&A, Talent Acquisition, Total Rewards, and People Ops to ensure People strategies are connected, coordinated, and driving real outcomes

    • Champion the adoption of AI, automation, and people analytics tools - identifying opportunities to simplify workflows, deepen insights, and free the team up for higher-value strategic work

    • Lead the people side of change - restructures, leadership transitions, and org changes - with clear communication and steady change management

What you bring

    • 12+ years of progressive HR/People experience, with deep HRBP experience supporting senior leaders in high-growth, matrixed organizations; SaaS or pre-IPO experience strongly preferred

    • 5+ years leading, managing, and developing People Business Partner teams with a track record of raising the bar on quality and impact

    • Proven ability to build and scale HRBP/PBP operating models, processes, and playbooks that improve consistency, effectiveness, and business partnership

    • Strong executive presence and the credibility to give senior leaders honest, direct counsel they trust - including on sensitive talent, org, and leadership matters

    • Solid employee relations experience and the judgment to navigate complex, sensitive situations with care, fairness, and appropriate risk management

    • Genuine enthusiasm for how AI is reshaping the People function - and demonstrated experience using AI, automation, and digital tools to improve HR workflows and quality of work
