IQM is seeking an Executive HR Business Partner to own and evolve the people function for our US-based teams. This is a builder role, not a maintenance role. Our HR function is young, the business is moving fast, and we need someone who can take what exists and make it something that scales. As part of an AI-first organization, you'll leverage modern HR tooling and data-driven platforms to raise the bar on how we recruit, develop, and retain talent. This role calls for a player-coach mindset — the ability to set direction and execute on it without skipping a beat. You're not starting from scratch, but you'll make it yours — evolving comp structures, performance programs, and people infrastructure as we grow. While your immediate focus will be the US, IQM is a global company — and this role is built with that in mind across scope, geography, and impact. This role is hybrid, meaning team members are expected to work one to two days per week in person at one of the office locations in either NY/DC. At this time, IQM does not sponsor new applicants for employment authorization for this position.
