Senior HR Business Partner & Programs presso SambaTV

We’re seeking a strategic and hands-on Senior HR Business Partner to support Executive GTM and G&A leaders globally. This role is key to shaping how Samba TV scales—building systems, coaching leaders, and driving organization-wide impact. You’ll partner directly with senior executives and leaders to align strategy with business goals, lead through change, and strengthen leadership capability across global teams.This is a highly visible, business focused, builder role—ideal for someone who thrives in fast-moving, evolving environments and is excited to create scalable programs that enable performance, onboarding, and culture. Huge opportunity for impact from day one!



What You’ll Do

Serve as a trusted advisor to leaders at all levels — including executives — helping drive effective, high-performing teams while reinforcing organizational culture

Act as a hands-on builder, proactively identifying opportunities to improve processes, improve programs, strengthen leadership, and enable teams to perform at their best

Coach leaders and managers to operate with systems-level thinking — helping them assess trade-offs (talent, design, span/layer, capabilities) and anticipate ripple-effects across people, process and structure

Partner with People Programs and People Operations on structural design and leadership development—defining roles, spans, layers, and org models while creating scalable programs such as career panels, feedback cycles, and continuous capability development to strengthen leadership, manager effectiveness, and alignment to business strategy

Diagnose root-causes (not just symptoms) of team or organizational issues. Use engagement data, performance metrics, qualitative observations and contextual business input to uncover systemic patterns and recommend high-impact solutions

Lead change and transition initiatives alongside People Programs and People Ops: reorganizations, team evolution, major pivots, new ways of working, and helping embed Performance & Onboarding frameworks

Lead performance management programs: calibration cycles, development planning for senior/leader levels, growth initiatives, and supporting managers in accountability, under-performance, and coaching for improvement

Foster strong team dynamics and culture alignment: coach leaders on giving candid in the moment feedback, managing conflict, addressing behavioral risks, and guiding cross-functional teams through interpersonal or organizational challenges

Serve as HR escalation lead for complex employee relations matters globally: ensuring risk mitigation, partnering with Legal and People Ops where needed

Continuously monitor talent, performance and engagement data to spot emerging risks or opportunities — proactively advising leaders on mitigation or acceleration strategies.

Be a culture champion: embedding Samba TV’s values, reinforcing leadership behaviours, enabling managers as culture carriers, and facilitating consistent people practices across functions and geographies

Proven experience coaching senior leaders on systems thinking, structural design, change leadership, and organizational effectiveness; you connect dots across functions, ask second- and third-order questions, and anticipate implications at scale

Skilled in leading complex change and transitions including reorganizations, team redesigns, leadership turnover, and rapid growth phases while maintaining business continuity and team performance
