People Partner - (Location: Singapore)
At Zendesk we are looking for a dynamic People Partner to join our People & Places team in the APAC region. We are a company that's growing rapidly, and we want you to be part of this amazing expansion. We have an incredible product and exceptional employees; Zendesk is the place to be! Join us as we continue to provide the best experience for our employees and excellence in business partnering across all functions in the region and globally.
Who might you be? You thrive in the world of HR (the good, the interesting, the amazing) and the excitement that it brings. You excel in a fast-paced, high-growth, and ever-changing environment and can readily adapt to any situation and are excited to roll-up your sleeves and create something new because you are a builder. You aren't above doing the little things, but you're ready to tackle the big jobs too. You live for jam-packed days, but always have time to support a team member. Oh, and having fun is a must!
You are genuine. You listen to your customers. You are commercially focused. You can develop relationships and challenge constructively. You consistently strive to make the people around you better. You are motivated by challenges and changes yet able to keep a cool head to problem solve and look for solutions in consideration of longer-term implications.
Reporting to the People Partner Director, you will primarily work to support the Go-to-Market business in the APAC region and also play a part in our global People Partner team. There's lots for you to do... are you up for the challenge?
