Role Snapshot A strategic, hands-on HR Manager to own the people function. This is a business-partnering and organisational-development mandate, not an admin or operations role. You will run employee relations, performance and KPI systems, capability building, and OD initiatives, while grooming a two-person HR team that handles day-to-day operations and administration.

The role suits someone early in their career but ambitious, comfortable moving between strategy and execution, and ready to travel.

2. Performance Management & KPIs

- Run the performance management cycle end to end, covering goal-setting and mid-year and annual reviews.
- Design and administer the annual 360-degree feedback process, consolidate insights, and drive follow-through with managers.

5. Team Leadership, HR Operations & Policy

- Lead, groom, and develop 2 junior HR executives who handle HR operations, admin, and coordination.
- Set the standard and quality for HR processes: you own the outcome, the team runs the execution.
