Ensure People decisions support Snowflake’s growth, innovation, and market leadership. * Lead complex, high-impact initiatives: Own and drive enterprise-level initiatives such as organizational redesigns, leadership transitions, succession planning for critical roles, talent assessments, and retention strategies. Navigate ambiguity and influence outcomes without reliance on heavy process or structure. * Act as a change leader: Guide executive leaders and managers through periods of growth, transformation, and evolving business needs. Serve as a steady presence during change, helping leaders manage organizational complexity while maintaining performance and engagement. * Coach at the most senior levels: Provide high-impact coaching to VP, SVP and C-level leaders, focused on leadership effectiveness, decision-making, team dynamics, and organizational health. * Deliver executive-ready insights: Leverage data and qualitative insights to assess organizational health across engagement, performance, attrition, and diversity. Build concise, compelling narratives and presentations that enable executive decision-making and alignment. * Influence beyond G&A: As a senior member of the People Partner team, contribute to cross-functional initiatives and help shape broader People Partner strategy, standards, and operating models across Snowflake. * Partner deeply with COEs: Collaborate closely with COEs and regional HR teams to deliver scalable, high-quality people solutions. Ensure consistency with Snowflake programs while tailoring approaches to the unique needs of the G&A organizations. WHAT YOU BRING: * 12+ years of progressive HR experience, with significant time spent supporting VP, SVP, and C-level leaders. * Demonstrated experience partnering directly with a CFO, General Counsel or equivalent ELT leader * Strong background supporting Finance, Legal or broader G&A organizations in technology environments. * Proven ability to operate at a staff-plus or principal level, influencing outcomes beyond a single client group. * Exceptional executive presence and communication skills, including the ability to deliver crisp, persuasive, data-backed recommendations. * Deep expertise in organizational design, leadership coaching, succession planning, and navigating organizational conflict. * Strong business, financial and data acumen, with comfort using insights to challenge assumptions and guide decisions. * Ability to operate independently in fast-moving, ambiguous environments, balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution when needed. * Experience in high-growth companies where People Partners are expected to roll up their sleeves, not rely on extensive infrastructure. * Proven ability to influence and build trust with senior leaders across diverse functions and geographies.

Due to the nature of executive partnership in this role, this position is not eligible for remote or alternate-location arrangements.
