Sr Director SF-Hybrid

RZR is an AI-native advertising platform built for the next era of performance marketing. We operate at the intersection of machine learning, programmatic media, and full-funnel mobile growth, powering campaigns for some of the world's most ambitious advertisers. Our platform is purpose-built to deliver outcomes at scale, not just impressions.

We are a team of builders, operators, and technologists who believe the advertising industry is overdue for a fundamental rethink. We move fast, operate with a high degree of ownership, and hold ourselves to an exceptionally high standard of craft.

RZR is scaling aggressively with an active M&A pipeline and a platform vision that puts us on a path to becoming an industry leader. This is a rare opportunity to join a company at an inflection point and help shape what it becomes.

As Global Head of People at RZR, you will own People Operations across the US and EMEA, partner directly with the CEO and COO on global People strategy, and consolidate the global People function under a single owner. You become the senior People leader for HQ and the executive team — and the connective tissue across regions.

Scope includes recruiting, retention, performance management, onboarding, employee experience, training, compliance, and HR business partnership for the US, EMEA, and Armenia teams. The role partners closely with the India People lead and China HRBP to keep standards consistent across geographies.

This is a high-ownership leadership role with real authority from day one. You will not be inheriting a polished machine — you will be consolidating a fragmented function, setting the operating model, and building a People engine that can support RZR's next phase of growth.

The right person for this role brings executive presence and process discipline in equal measure — someone who can earn the trust of the CEO and COO, hold the line on standards with senior leaders, and drive measurable improvement in hiring quality, performance consistency, and organizational health.
