 Human Resources Opportunities

The value Google places on our employees knows no bounds.

We revolutionized search, and now we're redefining human resources in the way we work closely with our management teams to attract, hire, develop and reward talented people. Google's HR team – which we call People Operations – is focused on bringing this discipline to the next level. The people who work with us have a wide variety of talents and experience, including HR, program management, marketing, team management and analytical skills. Our common trait is that we share a commitment to preserving Google's uncommon culture as we continue to grow worldwide.

Our Areas

Google has many openings available in Human Resources. Key areas include:

Benefits/Perks: Google employees have a wide variety of interests both inside and outside Google. We strive to design a unique benefits package that helps Googlers balance their busy lives and allow them to focus on the things they love to do. Our Benefits/Perks team develops programs like our top-tier health plans and a generous 401(k) matching program, in addition to on-site services at our U.S. headquarters which include a wellness center with on-site physicians, cafes with gourmet meals, four full-service fitness centers and massage services.

Compensation: Compensation is the department that sets the parameters for each major pay element at Google: salaries, bonuses and stock awards. The team ensures that Google pay, in total, meets our goal of being highly competitive with other companies. In addition to establishing both initial and ongoing rates of pay consistent with the Google philosophy, we also encourage, recognize and reward outstanding – and astounding – levels of performance.

HR Business Partners and Generalists: Human Resources Business Partners (sometimes called HR Generalists) are on the front line of servicing and interacting with our employees. We perform both hands-on and strategic roles in providing human resources expertise in employee relations, coaching/development, compensation, conflict management, organizational development, training and more. HR Business Partners are also instrumental in initiating and driving HR programs/initiatives within those organizations, placing considerable focus on retention, scaling and culture issues.

Human Resources Technology and Operations: The Human Resources Technology and Operations team designs, implements and continuously evolves innovative technology tools that enable all aspects of the HR function. Googlers around the world use these tools to access and manage people-related information. Our team also leverages them to administer core People Programs, including collecting and maintaining accurate data over the course of an employee's lifecycle, generating useful management information and resolving end-user issues.

Learning and Leadership Development: Google's emerging Learning and Leadership Development (LLD) team designs and implements innovative learning programs that support and develop the company's talent. Our team is a creative, dynamic and collaborative group that is responsible for three integrated components of learning: the learning programs of Google University, leadership development and talent management.

People Programs: Google's People Programs are geared to anticipate the demands and meet the requirements of the company's rapid expansion throughout the world. We help Google's recruiting and HR processes work effectively, extol Google's many virtues as an employer, engage in ongoing dialogs with university students and professors, and develop programs to promote and celebrate Google's culture of diversity.
