About Us

Kyriba is a global fintech leader empowering CFOs and finance teams with cloud-based treasury, payments, risk management and working capital solutions. We serve 3,000+ customers worldwide, managing $15 trillion in payments annually and helping businesses optimize liquidity performance across the enterprise. 

We're on a mission to become the most sought-after cloud technology company globally. We think big, innovate relentlessly, and challenge the status quo every day. If you are a problem-solver who’s ready to push boundaries and achieve more than you thought possible-you'll find an exceptional career within an extraordinary business. 

About the role:

We are looking for a Senior HR Business Partner who seamlessly shifts between partnering at a strategic level with senior leaders, and isn’t afraid to roll up their sleeves to solve a complex people challenge on the ground. This is a role for someone who sees HR as a lever for growth, and who has the credibility, business acumen, and confidence to operate as a genuine thought partner to the leaders they serve.

This position is hybrid, based in NYC with two days a week in office.

Your primary focus will be our Americas business leaders, partnering closely with several senior leaders across multiple functions including Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Legal to drive a high-performance culture, strengthen leadership capability, and ensure our people strategy translates into real business outcomes. The right person will thrive on variety, move confidently in ambiguity, and leave a visible mark on the organisation, creating consistency, as well as a smooth collaboration across the HRBP function. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role at a pivotal moment in Kyriba’s growth journey. 

About the team:

You’ll be joining the function that is at the heart of Kyriba's business - our people. The HRBP team comprises partners aligned to our key business verticals: Sales; Customer Success, Marketing, G&A; and Research & Development, and exists as the engine behind architecting a future-ready workforce, accelerating Kyriba’s goal of delivering the most intelligent and secure liquidity performance platform, while fostering a culture of innovation, integrity, excellence, and belonging. 

What you’ll do:

• Act as a trusted advisor and coach to VP and SVP-level leaders on all aspects of people leadership, get integrated into the business and own your seat at the table, contributing to planning, and translating people insights into strategic recommendations

• Use data and analytics to identify trends, risks, and opportunities within your client groups and present actionable recommendations to leadership

• Advise on organisational design, team structures, and workforce planning decisions, bringing both commercial and people expertise to the conversation

• Represent the organisation in hiring decisions, including participation in interview processes for Director+ hires

• Lead the talent processes for your client groups, including talent reviews, engagement surveys, critical role mapping and succession/talent development planning

• Support the annual merit and promotion cycle for your client groups, ensuring consistency, fairness, and compliance with budget parameters

• Manage underperformance proactively; advise leaders on PIPs and performance improvement approaches that are both compliant and genuinely aimed at improvement

• Coordinate with EMEA and APAC HRBP colleagues under the HRBP Director’s leadership to ensure consistent HR program delivery and a unified, collaborative strategy for the organization

• Navigate cross-border complexity (time zones, legal frameworks, cultural differences) with confidence and pragmatism

• Identify patterns within the functions that signal broader structural, management, or cultural concerns and address them at source

• Advise on and manage employee relations cases across the Americas, including disciplinary, grievance, performance, and exit matters

• Contribute actively to the broader global HR team: sharing insights, co-designing solutions, and participating in CoE-led projects

What you bring:

Experience

• 8+ years of progressive HR experience, in a high-growth global technology or SaaS environment strongly preferred, across multiple geographies or globally within a matrixed organisation
