HR Business Partner (HRBP)

HR Business Partner (HRBP)

A senior HR professional embedded within a business unit to align HR strategy with operational and commercial objectives.

An HR Business Partner (HRBP) is a strategic HR professional who works alongside business unit leaders to align human resources strategy with commercial objectives. Unlike traditional HR administrators, HRBPs focus on talent management, organizational development, workforce planning and change management at the business unit level. In Saudi Arabia, HRBPs must also be fluent in Saudization strategy, Saudi Labor Law compliance, government portal management and the cultural nuances of managing a diverse Saudi/expatriate workforce. Inclusive Solutions provides HRBP services on an outsourced or advisory basis for businesses in Saudi Arabia.
