Head of Talent, Performance & Capability (Maternity Leave)

Join HiBob, a rapidly growing HR platform that helps modern businesses manage their people effectively. As the Head of Talent, Performance & Capability, you will lead the People Growth group and focus on talent management, learning, and leadership development. You will need at least 7 years of experience in talent management or a related field, with a proven track record of driving measurable business impact through people processes.

• Ownership of end-to-end talent cycles, including performance management, talent reviews, succession planning, and development planning.
• Using talent data to generate actionable insights across performance, skills, capability, learning needs, and workforce priorities.
• Partnering effectively with HRBPs, business leaders, Learning/People Growth, and commercial enablement teams to address priority capability gaps.

HiBob is transitioning to a skills-based organization, so we value a growth mindset above all. However, as a small team with a massive global reach, we need someone who can hit the ground running with a diverse toolkit.
We are looking for:

• 7+ years of experience in Talent Management, Organizational Development, People Strategy, or a related field.
• Proven ownership of end-to-end talent cycles: performance management, talent reviews, succession planning, and development planning in a multi-country organization.
• Demonstrated ability to turn people processes into simple, manager-friendly experiences with strong adoption and measurable business impact.
• Strong experience using talent data to generate actionable insights across performance, skills, capability, learning needs, and workforce priorities.
• Experience partnering effectively with HRBPs, business leaders, Learning/People Growth, and commercial enablement teams to address priority capability gaps.
• Proven change leadership skills, including influencing senior stakeholders and embedding new ways of working across complex organizations.
• Strong operating mindset: able to establish clear governance, ownership, processes, and measures of success for global talent programs.
• Excellent communication, facilitation, and stakeholder-management skills, with the credibility to challenge leaders constructively.
• Demonstrated ability to use AI thoughtfully to improve talent insights, streamline manager and employee experiences, and scale development - while applying sound judgment around data privacy, fairness, and human decision-making.

Nice to have: experience with HiBob platform; experience supporting a commercial/GTM organization; advanced HR analytics or workforce-planning
