You will capture data for the monthly dashboards concerning new hires and leavers, promotions, staff movement and clean up any information required on the HRIS system, acting as the custodian of such to ensure accuracy and full utilization. You will also be on hand to reconcile and verify payroll information and changes, acting as the final sign off before the payroll team process the monthly payments. Due to this, the successful candidate will also assist with research and development of employee benefits, freelancer movement updates and all HR related internal communications.

Requirements

This role requires a strong HR policy and data ambassador with excellent communication skills and significant knowledge of policies and legal obligations across several jurisdictions. Those with wider GCC labour law exposure, including Saudi Arabia and Bahrain have a distinct advantage.

You will be engaging with both internal and external stakeholders on a regular basis and therefore, you should be at ease when interacting across all levels of seniority.

Those with 5+ years of HR experience and additional CIPD qualifications are also highly desirable.
