About Juniper Square

Private markets are one of the largest, most complex, and most underserved corners of global finance. Our mission at Juniper Square is to unlock their full potential. We’re the Operations Partner trusted by 2,300 GPs, unifying technology, data, and fund administration services into a single platform that helps GPs move faster, make better decisions, and scale with precision. With $300B under administration and 700,000 LPs on platform, we’ve built the scale to match our ambition. And with JunieAI, our purpose-built AI platform, we’re reimagining how private markets operate, embedding intelligence across every workflow. Founder-led since 2014, backed by $350M in funding, and now 1,000 employees strong, we’re building a company designed to shape the future of private markets for decades to come.

Our culture is built for people who want to do ambitious, meaningful work alongside exceptionally talented teammates. We think like owners, move with urgency, and take pride in solving hard problems that truly matter to our customers and the future of private markets. We believe the best ideas come from open debate, deep collaboration, and diverse perspectives, which is why we believe transparency is the default and feedback makes us stronger. If you’re energized by high standards, rapid growth, and the opportunity to help define a category at a pivotal moment, come join us!

Juniper Square offers employees a variety of ways to work, ranging from a fully remote experience to working full-time in one of our physical offices. We invest heavily in digital-first operations, allowing our teams to collaborate effectively across 27 U.S. states, 2 Canadian Provinces, India, Luxembourg, and England. We also have physical offices in San Francisco, New York City, Mumbai and Bangalore for employees who prefer to work in an office some or all of the time.

About Your Role

Juniper Square is looking for a Senior People Business Partner to support our organization through our next phase of growth.

  • Support promotion readiness reviews and calibration discussions for the teams you partner with
  • Own employee relations casework within your client group(s), including conflict resolution and support for investigations, escalating complex cases as needed
  • Study engagement survey results, exit interview themes, and attrition data for your client group(s) and translate findings into concrete action plans for managers
  • Help managers build strong onboarding, feedback, and career development practices on their teams
  • Support organizational change (reorgs, headcount shifts) for your client group(s) by helping leaders think through the people implications and build communication plans
  • Partner closely with Talent, People Ops, and Compensation to connect your client group(s) with the right internal resources
  • Deeply understand the business, goals, and talent needs of the teams you support

Qualifications

  • 5-8 years of experience delivering PBP or generalist HR support, ideally at a fast-growing technology or financial services company
  • Demonstrated ability to build trust and influence with people managers and mid-level leaders
  • Solid grounding in performance management, employee relations, and organizational effectiveness fundamentals
  • Comfortable working independently and prioritizing across a client group's competing needs
  • Skilled at translating data (engagement, attrition, exit interview themes) into practical, actionable recommendations
  • Experience with an HRIS; exposure to multiple systems a plus
  • Best-in-class verbal and written communication skills; able to explain HR concepts in a clear, employee-friendly tone
  • Resilient, forward-looking, and adapts quickly to change; maintains a growth mindset

At Juniper Square, we believe building a diverse workforce and an inclusive culture makes us a better company. If you think this job sounds like a fit, we encourage you to apply even if you don't meet all the qualifications.
