Conduct regular employee connects - one-on-ones, focus groups — and translate qualitative inputs into actionable themes
Track and improve employee engagement and satisfaction scores; drive initiatives specifically aimed at improving collaboration effectiveness
Act as a change agent — challenge existing processes and recommend improvements that make HR more agile and impactful

3–5 years of experience in HR, with meaningful exposure to an HR Business Partner role in a fast-paced, knowledge-intensive environment

Experience working with data and reporting as part of the HR function — not as a technical specialist, but as someone who uses data to tell stories and support decisions

Excellent command of English, both written and verbal; skilled at creating structured communications for varied audiences
