Lead capability gap analysis across functions and drive targeted L&D interventions in partnership with external providers and internal SMEs.

Build a leadership pipeline through structured development programmes and succession planning.

Own the employee experience lifecycle — from onboarding to exit — ensuring every touchpoint reflects company’s values of safety, excellence, and ownership.

Ensure robust governance of all HR processes — payroll, HRIS, benefits, statutory compliances, and labour law adherence — with zero critical lapses.

Own the People dashboard presented to the CPO and leadership team; define key metrics, build narratives, and drive data-led decisions.

Lead the digitisation of People processes and drive adoption of HRIS/HRMS tools across the organisation.

Lead the people dimension of organisational change — restructures, new site ramp-ups, policy transitions, and digital HR adoption programmes.
