HR business Partner  is seen less of a generalist or manager and someone who takes a more consultative role working in HR. Human resource business partners have clients within the organization they provide resources and build relationships with focusing on the missions and objectives set forth by the organization while HR typically a salary level position these human resource managers may or may not oversee and supervise a staff of employees. Generalists in their roles these individuals often do a bit of everything including benefits, compensation, recruiting and handing employee relations issues each and every day. The responsibilities in this role are very wide.

HR Business Partners work to develop a HR agenda/ Strategy aligning to organisation's goals, 

Where as a typical HR ( HR Generalist / HR Manager is likely to be responsible for overall day to day HR functions - administration, record filing, personnel and compliance.
