  • Enable Change: Support organizational transformation by driving change management programs and coaching leaders through business pivots and restructuring.
  • Compliance & Governance: Ensure adherence to Bahrain labor law and regulatory frameworks, including contracts, visa processes, terminations, and dispute resolution.
  • HR Reporting & Analytics: Leverage data to track people metrics, monitor attrition trends, support MPP (manpower planning), and deliver insights to leadership.
  • Employee Relations: Act as a trusted advisor and escalation point for sensitive employee matters, ensuring a fair and consistent approach to conflict resolution.
  • Drive Localization & Diversity Initiatives: Support nationalization efforts (e.g., Tamkeen programs) and lead diversity and inclusion projects aligned with business priorities.
  • Policy & Process Improvements: Continuously review and enhance HR policies and SOPs to improve efficiency and employee experience.

Qualifications

  • Strong grasp of HR fundamentals including compensation, employment law, employee engagement, and performance.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead projects and change initiatives end-to-end.
