Director - People Success Partner (HRBP)

Why Globalization Excellence (GE) 

Zinnov’s Globalization Excellence (GE) practice helps enterprises build and scale Global Capability Centers (GCCs) end-to-end — from Design & Discovery to Build, Scale, and Run.  

In GE, you don’t work in silos. You: 

• Own complex, end-to-end client journeys 
• Work across GCC advisory, managed services, and BOT / outsourcing models 
• Influence leadership decisions that shape long-term talent and operating strategies 

This is where strategy meets execution — and where talent plays a defining role.
