Human Resources Business Partner

Hi, we’re Gravie, and we are building the health plan of the future. For the past few decades, the health insurance industry has evolved to serve the needs of employers, insurance companies, brokers, and (sometimes) doctors and hospitals. The needs of the consumer, however, have largely been left out of the equation. We’re changing that. We are rebuilding the entire health insurance stack, with the consumer as the central focus. Our goal is to create a health plan that people can love.

 

As Gravie’s HR Business Partner you will work directly with people leaders and team members to enable performance, strengthen our culture, and play a key role in delivering innovative people programs and policies to support Gravie’s mission and business goals. This role will partner with business leaders to develop and execute People strategies focused on talent development, organizational effectiveness, and employee engagement. To be successful in this role, you must translate business priorities into an HR agenda that supports Gravie as it grows. You will help business leaders look around corners and make recommendations to improve performance, retention, and Gravie’s high performance culture.
