Senior Specialist People And Operations Emirati National

About the Role

We’re looking for a hands-on HR Generalist to own day-to-day HR operations and HR systems. This role is ideal for someone early in their HR career who is proactive, curious, and eager to take ownership.

You’ll be trusted to run with things, fix issues, and keep HR operations and systems running smoothly.

• Coordinate pre-employment processes including security clearances and documentation

• Prepare and issue offer letters and employment contracts using approved templates

• Manage onboarding coordination with IT, Finance, and business teams

• Ensure new joiners are accurately set up in HR systems from day one

• Maintain accurate employee data across the employee lifecycle

• Be the first point of contact for HR system issues

• Troubleshoot issues, coordinate with vendors, and see fixes through to completion

• Test new features, support integrations with other platforms, and help roll out system improvements

• Support engagement, L&D, and performance cycles from an operational perspective

• Track timelines, prepare reports, and support communications

• Pull data and insights from systems to support decision-making

• Spot gaps or inefficiencies in HR processes and propose improvements

• Help document processes and create simple guides for employees and managers

• Take initiative to improve how HR operations and systems work day to day

This role is suited to someone who is:

• A self-starter who takes ownership and follows through

• Comfortable working independently and solving problems

• Highly execution-focused and detail-oriented

• Curious, eager to learn, and motivated to grow

• Confident dealing with systems, data, and vendors

You won’t be micromanaged — you’ll be trusted to think, act, and deliver.

• 2–3 years’ experience in an HR Generalist, HR Operations, or People Operations role

• Hands-on experience with HR Tools (Darwinbox or Team Tailor experience is a plus, not a must)

• Comfortable working with Excel and HR data

• Strong communication and coordination skills

• Real ownership and accountability from day one

• Exposure to HR systems, integrations, and operational problem-solving

• Opportunity to grow quickly in a fast-moving environment
