Human Resources Business Partner

Future Human Resources Business Partner Opportunity with EquipmentShare!

EquipmentShare is accepting applications for future Human Resources Business Partner openings in the Columbia, MO (Headquarters) area.

EquipmentShare is searching for a Corporate HRBP for our corporate office in Columbia, MO, to support our team as the department continues to grow. This is a hybrid position and does require some travel to the corporate office.

In this role you will collaborate with corporate leaders to identify the unique needs of stakeholders, and build a Corporate HR organization that meets the needs of the business while remaining agile, and able to scale for future growth.

Primary Responsibilities

• Team Leadership: The HRBP, Corporate will be responsible for evaluating the Corp HRBP needs, establishing standard work and KPIs, fostering an environment of feedback and career development, and coaching as necessary. You will model what ‘good looks like’ in terms of being a thought partner and coach to business leaders.

• Stakeholder Management: Earning trust of stakeholders is critical to success in this role. The HRBP function has not historically existed at EquipmentShare, and leaders will need to be brought along as we build. You will need to listen, teach, coach, and drive clarity in roles and responsibilities across stakeholder groups.

• People First Strategy: In this role, you will not copy and paste what you know from other organizations, but rather you will build a bespoke model attuned to the culture of EquipmentShare. To do this, you will become an SME of corporate teams and a key strategic partner to business leaders. As a voice and advocate for the people, you will play a large role in ensuring that global talent strategies maintain a ‘people first’ approach and we are building processes while keeping our people top of mind.

• Talent and Performance Management: You will help lay the foundation for talent management (manager development, talent reviews, promotion processes, succession planning) and performance management (process discipline, 1:1 consistency, coaching, documentation, terminations) across the field organization - setting the strategy, communicating thoughtfully, and applying accountability for supporting the employee lifecycle at EquipmentShare. Your partnership with the Senior HRBP, Corporate will be imperative with this process.

• Collaboration: You will work closely with your Talent Management counterpart to establish a philosophy and roadmap for strategic initiatives intended to stabilize talent processes across the company. In addition, you will partner closely with the HRSS Manager, PFO Business Operations team, Talent Acquisition team, L&D team, and P&T team to cross functionally work towards cohesive process and career journey mapping for all employee profiles.
