This role reports into Gusto s Head of People and serves as an embedded, execution-oriented partner to the CX Leadership Team — someone who advises and then stays in the room until the work is done. This is a senior partnership role with a team management component. You ll spend most of your time working directly with CX Senior Leaders — the leaders who run one of our largest, most operationally complex functions — on org design, workforce strategy, and the harder talent conversations that only land when there s real trust. At the same time, you ll directly empower 2 People Partners who deliver the day-to-day: coaching frontline managers, managing ER volume, and executing People programs across a large, distributed org. You earn trust through follow-through, not decks. You stress-test thinking and then own the outcome — from org change communication to the last Workday update. You don t identify primarily as a strategist. You identify as someone who gets things done, and your ability to work alongside senior leaders is a byproduct of that credibility — not the other way around. We are in an active build phase — this role requires someone who arrives ready to construct and deliver, not inherit and sustain.   Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day: <ul> <li>Build trusted partnerships with the CX Senior Leadership Team — understanding org dynamics, surfacing friction early, and driving decisions on talent strategy, workforce planning, and org design — staying accountable for outcomes, not just recommendations.</li> <li>Lead the harder conversations: delivering candor to senior leaders on their own effectiveness, navigating performance decisions on high-profile talent, and partnering through significant org changes end-to-end.</li> <li>Directly empower and develop 2 People Partners (team of 3 total) who deliver coaching at scale and execute People programs across frontline CX teams — setting a high bar, giving direct feedback, and keeping ownership with your team.</li> <li>Synthesize People data — attrition signals, gPulse results, absenteeism trends, ER case patterns — into clear, actionable reads for CXLT before they have to ask.</li> <li>Build lightweight, scalable People processes, operating mechanisms, and repeatable playbooks — reaching for AI when the work is repetitive or data-heavy rather than waiting for a perfect framework before shipping a good one.</li> <li>Support and operationalize core talent programs including performance cycles, calibration discussions, promotion processes, and senior leader enablement.</li> <li>Reinforce high performance standards, ac
