People Team Leadership
Recruit, develop, and retain a high-performing People Experience team.
Set clear performance expectations, provide coaching and feedback, and foster a team culture of accountability, growth, and psychological safety.
Ensure your team is connected to broader business priorities and enabled to deliver with impact.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Partner with leaders in Talent Acquisition, Learning & Development, People Technology, and Compliance to ensure a cohesive and seamless employee experience.

You’re a seasoned and strategic HR leader with deep expertise in engagement, partnering, and ER — ideally within high-volume, fast-paced organisations.
You understand what it takes to lead people and culture strategies in environments that are complex, operationally intense, and constantly evolving — and you’re energised by that challenge.
Your experience will include:
10+ years of progressive HR experience, with 5+ years in senior leadership roles
A proven track record in leading high-performing people teams and delivering across business partnering, engagement, and ER
Strong commercial acumen and the ability to align HR strategy with business performance

A strong understanding of HR policies, employment law, and risk frameworks
Experience in BPO, contact centres, or similar environments (highly desirable)
