About the Team

The centralized Workplace Investigation Team (WIT) sits within the Legal organization and is responsible for conducting prompt, thorough, and objective investigations into alleged policy violations, including matters involving insider threats and security breaches.

About the Role

The Senior Workplace Investigations Business Partner is responsible for leading complex, employee-facing investigations. This specific role will have a focus on matters involving potential security breaches, misuse of systems, and data access concerns, alongside other traditional workplace investigations matters.

This role operates at the intersection of Legal, Security, and Workplace Investigations, requiring the ability to assess risk, interpret technical evidence, and conduct fair, defensible investigations in high stakes situations. The investigator must balance employee impact with enterprise risk, often in ambiguous and sensitive circumstances.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

Lead investigations into allegations involving unauthorized access, data misuse, and insider threat signals, including cases referred by Security teams; conduct interviews of complainants, subjects, and witnesses; and draft clear investigative reports with defensible findings and conclusions
Partner with internal Security teams to interpret system logs, access patterns, and digital evidence
Translate technical findings into clear investigative narratives and defensible outcomes
Assess employee intent, credibility, and level of risk, including distinguishing between negligent, reckless, and malicious behavior
Support decision-making where there is heightened legal, regulatory, or reputational exposure
Prepare, maintain, and track all case related documents and communication in the designated case management system
Develop effective relationships with cross-functional partners such as Security, Legal, Employee Relations, and Human Resources.
Utilize investigation data to provide strategic insights that inform leadership decisions, mitigate risks, and improve workplace culture.
Consult with in-house attorneys as needed to ensure compliance and consistent interpretation of relevant laws and regulations
Drive continuous improvement of Workplace Investigations and participate in cross-functional projects as needed

We’re excited about you because…

You have a BA/BS and 8+ years of relevant experience in workplace investigations, human resources, employee relations, security, and/or employment law
You have 5+ years of experience conducting complex, high-risk investigations, including matters involving fraud, data misuse, or security-related concerns
You have experience working with technical or digital evidence [eg access logs, systems activity, audit trails], ideally in partnership with Security or technical teams
You have demonstrated ability to operate in ambiguous, high-stakes environments with competing priorities, including balancing employee fairness with company risk
You balance speed and quality and have a knack for prioritizing work even when two matters appear to be similar on the surface
You strive for operational excellence in case management. You are highly organized, detail oriented, and able to track and manage multiple cases/projects simultaneously.
You excel at stakeholder management. You have experience managing relationships with a diverse group of stakeholders in various levels and functions.
You have outstanding communication skills and are an expert at writing clear, concise, investigative reports tailored to multiple audiences.
You are flexible and adaptable to a rapidly changing environment with a growth mindset and commitment to continuous improvement.

Nice to haves:

Juris Doctorate or other advanced degree in a relevant field
AWI-CH, SPHR/SHRM-SCP, or CFE certification
Previous tech experience
