About the Team:

The Global People Team is made up of people professionals with a diverse range of expertise, including talent, people relations, performance achievement, and systems and analytics, amongst others. In 2024 we are focused on building robust People systems and processes that enable us to develop and scale our culture to deliver our strategic priorities and support exceptional performance across all global teams. In 2025, we are focused on integrating two newly acquired companies to create one cohesive organization. We are a fast-paced, hypergrowth company and our team is always adapting to the evolving needs of the business. We are looking for leaders and professionals to join our team who are committed to learning and growing themselves while creatively delivering solutions that have a measurable impact on employee experience. 

About the Role:

As a People Business Partner, you will partner directly with leadership to build a scalable organization while positively impacting the day-to-day experiences of our people. This role will support managers across our non-Revenue teams, many of whom recently joined the company as part of our Tegus acquisition in 2024.

This is an opportunity to have a direct impact on the effectiveness of the organization by driving people retention programs and providing guidance to leaders across the company during a time of change, post-acquisition. In this role, you will cultivate strong performance and engagement, coach managers, enable clear team communication and feedback, and drive organizational plans that deliver on business goals. 

What You’ll Do:

  • You will partner with new & developing managers on people management (e.g. coaching, counseling, career development, disciplinary actions, retention strategies, succession planning), providing training, guidance, and support
  • You will guide managers and team members through a period of change as teams integrate into AlphaSense, helping answer questions and drive solutions to issues and concerns
  • You will support managers through core People processes, such as annual compensation reviews, growth reviews, and our ongoing focus on managing performance
  • You will provide coaching and guidance to managers in an ongoing effort to maintain a positive employee experience that offers challenging yet fulfilling work and a clear path for professional development
  • You will work closely with other global People Team partners such as people systems, benefits, talent and compensation to work through employee inquiries and apply policy
  • You will help managers address performance issues early and – where necessary – partner with more senior team members to navigate more complex employee relations matters that arise, conducting effective, thorough, and objective investigations when needed
  • You will assist in developing programs and processes supporting the learning, career growth, and mobility aspirations of employees  – including partnering with leaders to create department-specific career paths
  • You will work with the global People Team to analyze trends and metrics to develop solutions, programs, and policies, recommending improvements and solutions where necessary
  • You will provide HR policy recommendations, guidance, and interpretation
  • You will drive diversity practices to foster an inclusive, supportive environment
  • Because what you do profoundly impacts the day-to-day working lives of people at AlphaSense, you will play a critical role both in shaping our culture and in influencing how people experience what it’s like to work here– whether they feel valued, trusted, heard, and cared about 

Who You Are:

  • You have 3-4+ years experience of progressive HR experience, with at least 1 year working in a high-growth tech company
  • Experience working at companies that have gone through mergers and acquisitions is a plus
  • You have experience supporting managers in a PBP function
  • You are located in the Chicago metro area and are able to work from our Chicago office 2-3 days per week
  • You are comfortable being the main point of contact for people-related matters that arise in the Chicago office, working with other PBPs located elsewhere to triage support 
  • You have a foundation and knowledge of principles & practice of HR, including employment law & compliance requirements with a desire to learn and grow in the people business partner field
  • You have a proven ability to effectively coach employees and management through complex and difficult issues, including making recommendations to effectively resolve problems or issues
  • You have the ability to deal with ambiguity and thrive in an unstructured environment
  • You are a team player who acts with a sense of urgency and adapts to a fast-paced and ever-changing environment
  • You have strong ethics, demonstrated discretion, and sound judgment while working with sensitive and confidential information
  • You have a proactive attitude with a desire to continuously learn and grow while helping others do the same
  • You are a strong communicator with the ability to drive organizational change through partnership with People & leadership teams
  • You are obsessed with retention by way of creating sustainable, scalable organizations with best in class coaching, leadership, and career mobility
  • You are highly empathetic and build trust by being warm and demanding
  • You have the ability to analyze and interpret data, using it to help business leaders better understand workforce needs and incorporate results into workforce strategy and planning
  • You have the ability to facilitate discussions around change and transformation, identifying in advance where and when change management will be needed and proactively participating in developing plans
  • You operate with a strong customer service attitude toward employees and managers
