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. As a People Consultant, you will lead consultations across a variety of topics (performance enablement, organizational development/design, team/manager/leader effectiveness, diversity, etc.). You will work with employee relation issues and navigate these thoughtfully and seamlessly across executive stakeholders and functions. In this role, you will recognize human resource trends and gaps across Google by connecting the dots across your consultations, different businesses, and markets. You will surface insight and translate them into meaningful and forward-thinking human resource interventions that grow change within organizations and countries. You will grow and oversee long-term, scalable, and simplified solutions to grow continuous improvements in people processes. 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**: - Provide human resource support and consultation to the business, answering employee and manager questions about human resource programs, policies, and other human resource-related items (e.g., performance, compensation, career goals, etc.). - Advise on performance management issues and lead minor investigations and reorganizations. - Assist People Partners with planning and roll-out of human resource programs and initiatives. - Identify opportunities to improve human resource policies by connecting the dots across multiple experiences of employees/managers and propose solutions to correct inconsistent human resource policies and gaps.
