• Ensure consistent enforcement of company policies while maintaining trust and transparency.
• Proactively identify risk areas and implement preventive HR measures.

• Serve as a trusted partner to CX operations, providing strategic advice and people insights.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with finance, TA, and regional HR to align on policies and workforce planning.
• Represent Saudi HR in regional discussions, ensuring local needs are met within global frameworks.

• Deep knowledge of Saudi labour law and local HR systems (GOSI, Qiwa, Muqeem, Mudad).
• Proven experience in scaling HR operations from early-stage setup to large-scale delivery.
• Strong operational and analytical mindset - data-driven, structured, and execution-focused.
• Empathetic yet firm leader, able to maintain discipline and motivate teams through high-growth cycles.
• Fluent in Arabic and English, with strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
