As the Team Business Partner to the Head of International External Affairs, and the External Affairs Team, your job will be to help the team work better and get things done more efficiently. Though you will be responsible for direct administrative support to the leadership of this team, this is not your typical administrative role. As a Team Business Partner, you will be a key point of contact and project manager to this critical team at DiDi. You will help to structure the team's operations, meeting cadence, information sharing, results reporting, and resource and budget allocation and tracking. You will help us plan amazing team building events and online activities around the world (once travel is possible), while also helping us build and maintain our team culture moments throughout the year. Basically, you will be a key planning and project delivery partner to a diverse and awesome team, with exposure to all of the exciting countries around the world that DiDi operates in.
