🤝 Our culture
Everything at EXANTE starts with our people. We bring together 600+ minds from 65 nationalities across 70 locations. We place trust in our team with real autonomy - the freedom to drive change across products, processes and everything in between. That trust fuels innovation, and the demands of the markets build resilience; we adapt, push forward, and we look after each other while we do it.
That freedom is matched by real investment in growth: we back our people with ongoing learning, hands-on development and the kind of stretch opportunities that turn good careers into great ones. Here, progression isn’t something you wait for - it’s something you’re actively supported to pursue.
We're looking for an experienced Senior HR Business Partner to partner directly with our CTO and Technology Leadership Team during a major transformation of our engineering organization.
This is not a traditional HRBP role. You will act as a strategic advisor and execution partner, helping transform a project-based IT organization into a modern, product-led engineering function. You will shape leadership capability, performance culture, organizational design, and the integration of distributed engineering teams across multiple countries.
- Partner with the CTO on organizational design and workforce planning.
- Lead the people side of an agile, product-led transformation.
- Design career frameworks, role architecture, and organizational structures for engineering teams.
- Assess leadership capability and develop succession and leadership development plans.
- Coach senior engineering leaders through organizational change.
- Build and embed a modern performance management framework focused on ownership, outcomes, and accountability.
- Drive calibration and talent review processes.
- Improve collaboration, engagement, and communication across globally distributed engineering teams.
- Partner with Legal, Compliance, and local HR teams to support an international workforce.
- Use workforce data and people analytics to identify challenges and measure progress.
- Significant HR Business Partner experience supporting Technology or Engineering organizations.
- Proven experience leading or driving an agile or product operating model transformation.
- Strong background in organizational design, leadership development, and change management.
- Experience implementing modern performance management and talent review processes.
- Experience supporting remote and internationally distributed engineering teams.
- Ability to build credibility with senior technical leaders and influence without formal authority.
- Strong analytical mindset with experience using people data to support decision making.
- Excellent stakeholder management and coaching skills.
- Native Russian speaker (mandatory).
- Fluent English (mandatory).
This role is intended for native Russian-speaking professionals currently living outside of Russia, preferably in Cyprus, Georgia, Serbia, or another nearby European location with the ability to travel regularly to engineering hubs.
