Role Purpose

We are looking for a senior, hands-on leader to build a high-performance, values-driven

organization by integrating people leadership, process excellence, SOP discipline, and

technology enablement (automation & AI).

This role goes beyond traditional HR. It owns culture, capability, execution discipline, and

continuous improvement, ensuring that teams not only understand our vision and values

Track and demonstrate measurable efficiency improvements.

4. Automation, Digital & AI Enablement (Business Side)

Identify use cases where automation or AI can reduce manual work and improve

decision-making.

Partner with operations/technology teams to support:

o Workflow automation

o Reporting and dashboard adoption

o AI-assisted documentation, analysis, and follow-ups

Train teams to confidently use new tools and systems; drive real adoption.

5. Change Management & Innovation

Lead change management during new process, system, or tool rollouts.

Handle resistance constructively and ensure behavioral change sticks.

Introduce structured continuous improvement and innovation cycles.

Bring in new ideas, benchmarks, and best practices to improve overall organizational

performance.

6. Talent, Capability & Recruitment

Support recruitment of right-fit talent aligned with culture and performance

expectations.

Strengthen onboarding, role clarity, and capability building.

Develop supervisors and mid-level leaders to create strong second-line ownership.

Support succession planning and long-term capability development.
