ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION

Pathfinder International is driven by the conviction that all people, regardless of where they live, have the right to decide whether and when to have children, to exist free from fear and stigma, and to lead the lives they choose. Since 1957, we have partnered with local governments, communities, and health systems in developing countries to remove barriers to critical sexual and reproductive health services. Together, we expand access to contraception, promote healthy pregnancies, save women’s lives, and stop the spread of new HIV infections, wherever the need is most urgent. Our work ensures millions of women, men, and young people are able to choose their own paths forward.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The Global Services HR Business Partner (GSHRBP) serves as the key HR focal point for Pathfinders in key global leadership positions and in the following service-oriented divisions:

1) Global Services (HR, IT, Grants and Contracts, Procurement, Operations, Digital Innovation, Business Development, and Technical Services)

2) Global Finance (Finance, Accounting, Travel and Administration, Internal Audit and Compliance)

3) Global Strategic Engagement and Communications

4) The Office of the CEO, Individual Giving, and Women-Led Climate Resilience

5) Legal

These functions benefit from globally dispersed staffing and while positions are increasingly based in the countries where Pathfinder works, a majority of these staff are currently based in the U.S. The GSHRBP provides subject matter expertise and participates in strategic, organization-wide decisions. The GSHRBP will form part of a team of HR business partners which collaborates with the Global Human Resources team broadly in modeling Pathfinder’s core values, translating strategic plans into operational Human Resources initiatives, promoting positive employee engagement and relations, and improving team and organizational effectiveness. In collaboration with Global Human Resources team members who possess deep expertise in Total Rewards, Talent Acquisition, and Talent Management, the GSHRBP provides operational guidance and support in recruitment, employee relations, talent management, compensation/total rewards, U.S. local labor laws, and HR operations.
