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.
Great just isn't good enough for our People Operations team (known elsewhere as "Human Resources"). 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. You’ll play an essential role advancing a more diverse, accessible, equitable, and inclusive Google through our hiring, promotion, retention, and inclusion practices.
Responsibilities
- Manage relationships with employee representatives and third parties; work together with the Business and other stakeholders (People Ops, Employee Relations, Employment Legal) to ensure Google’s compliance with its information and consultation obligations under local legislation.
- Enable the successful roll-out of company-wide programs and initiatives by advising on, designing and implementing the required labor relations process.
- Manage several complex labor relations initiatives simultaneously; manage timelines, identify legal and operational risks and clearly communicate these to stakeholders.
- Work closely with the EMEA and Global Labor Relations teams and contribute to a global labor relations strategy. Define and implement training, provide coaching and guidance towards the broader People Ops community.
- Provide support around broader HR topics and areas, contribute to deployment of HR programs and processes and understand how to navigate the POps ecosystem.
