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.

You will be responsible for the regional people and organization strategy of key enablement organizations. Your client group spans over EU countries including Ireland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Finland. You will partner closely with leaders in region and Google’s data center site leaders to solve complex organizational challenges through people-related solutions. You will be an integral part of the various leadership teams, and understand every aspect of the business, and act as a thought leader regarding people and organizational topics. In partnership with your leadership teams you will co-create the end-to-end regional people strategy that will enable business success and support Googlers in realizing their ambitions. This will require you to think outside the box, use data to guide your work, be comfortable challenging convention, and, in some cases, reinvent how work is done to support the team's mission: together we operate and transform the world’s leading data centers.

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.
