At WithSecure™, we protect businesses all over the world.
Our SaaS solutions safeguard against modern cyber threats, and our innovative Co-security approach reflects our belief that true protection requires collaboration and shared expertise. No one can solve every cyber security problem alone. Our vision is to become Europe’s flagship in cyber security. Every day, our talented teams work to prevent cyber extortion, secure critical infrastructure, and prevent misuse of sensitive data. At WithSecure, it’s our people who make us exceptional – a diverse community that values passion, purpose, and a commitment to workplace well-being. If you’re ready to make an impact with a company that’s transforming cybersecurity, we’d love to hear from you.
This new People Business Partner role is an invitation to redefine what HR can be at a company that is genuinely committing to becoming AI Native.
You will be working closely with senior leaders and teams on the everyday realities of the employee lifecycle. Alongside this, you will have a mandate to question, redesign and rebuild the way HR itself operates, using AI as a central strategic contributor to the organisation.
We are looking for someone who is as comfortable coaching a manager through a conversation as they are prototyping a new workflow that removes hours of manual work. You will sit at the intersection of people expertise and technological curiosity, and you will report directly to the VP of People and Talent, giving you a genuine seat at the table when it comes to shaping how AI and automation transformation evolves.
You will have a strong grasp of workforce planning and organisation design and how we will co-create a high-performance culture that is deliberately shaped for AI native ways of working. You will be just as comfortable iterating quickly within pod or squad teams as you are working through a more conventional reporting line.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Key Responsibilities
- Act as a trusted advisor to leaders and employees covering the full range of HR business partnering including performance, employee relations, organisational design and talent planning.
- Bring a strong understanding of employment law and cultural context across our locations, and be relied upon to navigate the nuances between them with care and confidence.
- Look at everything through a different lens. Where a process can be improved, ask whether AI or automation could make it faster. Where information is scattered across systems, explore how it could be brought together to increase collaboration and improve ways of working.
- Partner with the People and Talent team to pilot new tools, test new approaches and bring forward ideas that others in the business might not yet have considered. This could mean building an AI assisted onboarding journey, streamlining policy queries through smarter self-service, or rethinking how people data informs decisions.
- Build trust quickly with employees and leaders and bring energy and optimism to a role that asks you to build something new while keeping the everyday business of HR running smoothly.
What are we looking for?
- Solid experience as an People Business Partner or in a similar generalist HR role.
- Deep understanding of the fundamentals of good people practice to know when a rule matters and when it can be reimagined.
- Genuine curiosity about AI and technology, and someone who experiments with new tools in their own work.
- Confident communicator with Finnish language skills being an advantage but not essential.
- Track record of building high-performance cultures, ideally within a business that has been through significant change.
- Strong proficiency in AI technologies and tools.
- Proven experience in applying AI solutions to solve real-world business or technical challenges.
- Ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement AI-driven initiatives.
- Strong problem-solving skills, analytical thinking, and a continuous learning mindset to keep up with evolving AI technologies.
