- Expatriate Management: Take full ownership of the IQAMA lifecycle for expatriate employees, including visas, renewals, sponsorship transfers, and dependent procedures.
- Strategic Business Partnership: Partner closely with local and headquarters leadership to implement HR strategies that support business objectives. Provide expert guidance on people matters within the local context.
- Performance & Culture: Facilitate performance management cycles and lead initiatives to foster an engaging, productive, and culturally respectful work environment. Design competitive, localized benefits.
- HR Systems & Data: Ensure accuracy in HRIS and generate all mandatory reports for both management and government authorities.

- Minimum of 5 years of proven experience as an HRBP or HR Manager in Saudi Arabia, with in-depth, hands-on knowledge of Saudi Labor Law, Nitaqat, WPS, GOSI, and Iqama procedures.
