B. About Your Role

We are looking for an AVP / VP – Human Resources to join our Human Capital Management & Innovation team. In this role, you will lead and shape our HR strategy, driving scalable growth, performance excellence, and a strong people-first culture across the organization. You’ll play a pivotal role in building systems, processes, and teams that can thrive through every phase of a fast-growing startup journey.
