What We Need The Manager, HRBP & Labor Relations is a key member of the Shared Development Studios (SDS) North America HR team, reporting to the Sr. Manager, HRBP. This role serves as a strategic and operational HR partner across a diverse portfolio of client groups spanning our Motion Capture Studio, Research & Insights, and Global Services functions — a combined population that is dynamic, distributed, and central to how SDS delivers for our studios. Labor relations is a meaningful part of this role. You will be the primary HR point of contact for our unionized MoCap workforce and the go-to resource for CBA interpretation and compliance across the organization. But this is a full HRBP role, not a pure LR role — we're looking for someone who brings both the relationship-building instincts of a great business partner and the technical grounding to navigate a union environment with confidence. This is a hybrid role based in our Petaluma, CA studio. What You Will Do HRBP Partnership - Serve as the day-to-day HR partner for client groups across MoCap, Research & Insights, and Global Services, building trusted relationships with managers and employees at all levels. - Partner with leaders on org health, workforce planning, talent development, and employee engagement across a varied and distributed population. - Provide coaching and guidance to managers on performance, development, and team effectiveness. - Develop recruiting strategies with hiring managers; liaise with recruiters to provide context on staffing needs, role fit, and budget guidance. - Partner with HR COEs and the broader HRBP team to deliver seamless HR programs and processes across the organization.
