Employment Investigator

As Employment Investigator at Meta, you will be responsible for conducting prompt, thorough, and fair investigations comprising background research, investigative interviews, and debrief meetings in partnership with Employment Law, HR and Employee Relations Business Partners, and the business. Although you will primarily conduct investigations in your local region (EMEA), you will be expected to manage some investigations cross-regionally.

Success in this role will require working effectively across geographical and cultural boundaries and discerning systemic issues revealed during the investigative process. Our Employment Investigators demonstrate empathy by actively engaging with all parties and maintaining a respectful, neutral tone throughout the investigative process balanced against an ability to provide direct feedback and confront witnesses with difficult information. You must be able to articulate findings to the business in the form of oral and/or written summaries and conclusions so that long-term solutions can be developed and applied. As an Employment Investigator, you will also have the opportunity to deliver compliance education programs and training designed proactively to address workplace issues.
