We are looking for a motivated and driven Senior Director, HR Business Partner to be an integral member of the team ensuring Wave Life Sciences has the talent, culture, and organizational infrastructure needed to execute on our exciting mission. In this role, you will serve as a strategic partner and coach to Wave's Platform Discovery & Research organizations. By collaborating with the client groups' leadership to understand their goals, challenges, and workforce requirements, you will have the opportunity to create, implement, and drive talent development, engagement, and retention strategies that align to the client groups' needs as well as the overarching company strategy.

Wave Life Sciences provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or genetics. In addition to federal law requirements, Wave Life Sciences complies with applicable state and local laws governing nondiscrimination in employment in every location in which the company has facilities. This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including recruiting, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation and training.
Wave Life Sciences expressly prohibits any form of workplace harassment based on race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, age, genetic information, disability, or veteran status. Improper interference with the ability of Wave Life Sciences' employees to perform their job duties may result in discipline up to and including discharge.
We value our relationships with professional recruitment firms. To protect the interests of all parties, and given the large volume of inquiries received from third-party placement agencies, we are not able to respond to all agency inquiries. We do not accept unsolicited resumes from any source other than directly from candidates for current or future positions. Submission of unsolicited resumes in advance of a signed agreement between our company and a placement agency does not create an implied obligation and, if an unsolicited candidate represented by a placement agency is hired, we are not obligated to pay a fee.
