Role & responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

Systems, Processes & Digital Transformation

Talent Acquisition & Workforce Structuring
Manage high-volume hiring of 10+ people per month across engineering, production, quality, projects and support functions.
Build capability for senior and leadership hiring (up to CXO level).
Lead the transition of a large contract workforce (~50% of staff) onto the company payroll, with the associated structuring, cost and compliance planning.

Change Management & Employee Engagement

Design a communication and engagement model that maintains a personal touch with blue-collar workers even as production decentralises to a new facility away from the corporate office.




Mentor and upskill the existing HR team into a higher-capability function.

Compliance, T&D; and Cross-Functional Synergy
Institute listing-grade compliance with zero tolerance for error across statutory, labour and governance requirements.
Conduct training-needs analysis and build T&D; programmes that lift capability across the organisation.
Foster cross-departmental collaboration and synergy, positioning HR as a strategic partner to the business.
