We enable individuals to express views on real-world events by trading on outcomes across politics, economics, sports, culture, and current affairs. Built as a peer-to-peer marketplace with no centralized "house," Polymarket aggregates diverse opinions into transparent, market-based probabilities that reflect collective expectations about the future. We're growing fast — both in terms of volume ($21B traded in 2025) and adoption as an alternative news source. Our ambition is to become a ubiquitous beacon of truth in global media and we need your help adding fuel to the fire. #### About the Role Polymarket is looking for its first HR Business Partner to serve as the primary people partner to a defined set of executives and their organizations. You'll own decisions within those groups rather than routing them upward — advising on org design, performance, employee relations, and talent while the company scales fast. This is a foundational role. You'll define how the HRBP function operates at Polymarket and partner with the Head of People Experience to build manager enablement that scales beyond your own client groups. #### What You'll Do - Serve as the primary people partner to a defined set of executives and their organizations, operating with the autonomy to own decisions within those groups rather than routing them upward - Advise leaders on org design and headcount planning — including structure, span of control, role clarity, and leveling — while decisions are still being shaped rather than after they're made - Own performance management end to end for your client groups, from cycle facilitation through calibration, holding a consistent bar across managers who assess talent differently - Coach leaders to identify underperformance early and address it decisively, with documentation and process that hold up to scrutiny - Coach managers across your business units — spanning new-manager onboarding, escalation support, and ongoing development — and build enough trust that they raise problems while they're still small - Own employee relations for your groups, including intake, investigation, and resolution, escalating high-risk or cross-organizational matters with clear documentation and a recommended path forward - Partner with leaders on succession planning and identification of high-potential talent, including where the org is one departure away from a real gap - Serve as the change management partner for reorganizations, leadership transitions, and structural shifts within your client groups - Run feedback cycles, engagement pulse checks, and stay interviews, then translate what you learn into recommendations leadership can act on - Define how the HRBP function operates at Polymarket and partner with the Head of People Experience to build manager enablement that scales beyond your own client groups #### What We're Looking For - 5+ years as an HR Business Partner in a tech company, with clear experience owning a client group end to end - Proven track record coaching managers through performance management, including documentation and formal plans, without letting cases drag - Experience advising senior or executive leaders on org decisions, and comfortable holding a position when you disagree - Strong diagnostic instincts — you can separate an isolated issue from a systemic one and recommend interventions that match the actual problem - Experience running performance calibration and helping leaders hold a consistent bar across their teams - Comfort operating in a fast-moving environment where process supports the work rather than defining it - (Plus) Experience at a crypto, fintech, or web3 company - (Plus) Experience at a high-growth startup where the playbook was still being written #### Benefits - Competitive salary & equity - Unlimited PTO - Full Health, Vision, & Dental coverage - 401k match - Hardware setup: new MacBook Pro, big display, & accessories #### Pay Transparency Base salary range: $200,000 to $300,000 annually, plus equity and benefits. This range reflects a good-faith estimate for this position. Experience levels vary widely within a title here, so please reach out even if your expectations fall outside it. We're always happy to chat. --- Source: Polymarket's own career page, read by RemJobs.
