Partner with leaders to identify and address capability gaps, ensuring the team is set up for success at every stage of growth
Drive and own people processes (performance reviews, compensation cycles, talent reviews) within your BU, ensuring they are implemented with care and rigor

Work closely with the Talent Acquisition, Learning & Development, and Compensation & Benefits teams to deliver an integrated People experience
Act as a change agent and thought partner during Brevo's Business Unit transformation, helping leaders navigate uncertainty and land decisions effectively

Strong coaching and advisory skills, with the ability to build credibility quickly with C-level and senior stakeholders
Comfortable navigating ambiguity and change — you thrive in transformation contexts and bring clarity where others see complexity
Solid understanding of French labour law and HR practices; international exposure is a strong plus
