  • Strategic Acumen: Develop and execute a people strategy that supports growth while balancing operational excellence. You should have the foresight to anticipate challenges and opportunities in talent acquisition, retention, and organizational development.
  • Culture Stewardship: Instinctively know how to nurture and evolve company culture while embedding diversity, equity, and inclusion in everything you do. You’re expected to foster a collaborative and innovative work environment that inspires employees across regions.
  • Talent Expertise: Ensure we have the right people, in the right roles, at the right time. You must bring deep expertise in talent attraction, leadership development, and creating pathways for internal growth.
  • Compensation and Governance: Have a firm grasp of designing competitive and compliant compensation strategies that reflect our values and attract top-tier talent. You’ll be responsible for ensuring our HR practices align with legal and ethical standards globally.
  • Change Agent: Bring proven experience in leading large-scale transformations, from organizational redesign to new technology implementations. You’re expected to navigate change with resilience and empathy, ensuring buy-in at all levels.
  • Data-Driven Decision-Making: Leverage analytics and HR technology to monitor workforce performance and inform strategic decisions. You should naturally combine intuition with data to shape your approach.

What We’re Looking For

  • 15+ years of progressive HR leadership, with significant experience in senior executive roles.

  • A track record of leading HR in high-growth, multinational organizations.

  • Deep understanding of regional markets, particularly across ASEAN, and the ability to navigate their complexities.

  • Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills, with the gravitas to influence and inspire at the executive level.

  • Visionary yet pragmatic mindset, with the ability to balance strategic foresight and hands-on execution.
