About the Role
- Beehive is the MENA region's leading P2P SME lending platform, regulated by the DFSA and operating across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Oman.
- We are looking for an experienced HR Manager to take ownership of group wide people operations and help build a high performing, engaged workforce across our markets.
- This is a hands on generalist role with real scope — ideal for an experienced HR professional or a strong HR Business Partner ready to step up into their first management position.
What You'll Do
- Own end to end HR operations across UAE, KSA, and Oman — ensuring processes run smoothly and compliantly in each jurisdiction.
- Oversee payroll accuracy and timely processing in coordination with Finance.
- Maintain employee records, contracts, and HR documentation to audit ready standards.
- Ensure compliance with local labour laws and regulatory requirements (including DFSA personnel obligations).
- Drive the annual and quarterly performance review cycle end to end — from calibration to completion.
- Manage onboarding and offboarding processes, ensuring a consistent and positive experience.
- Support compensation reviews, benefits administration, and bonus cycle execution.
- Lead or support hiring across business functions, owning sourcing strategies, interview processes, and offer management.
- Partner with hiring managers to define role requirements and build robust pipelines.
- Maintain a strong candidate experience and employer brand in each market.
- Manage and develop a team of four HRBPs across UAE, KSA, and Oman.
- Design and execute employee engagement initiatives that reinforce culture and retention.
What We're Looking For
- 5–8 years of progressive HR experience, with meaningful time in a generalist or operational HR role.
- Proven track record in recruitment — you're comfortable owning a hiring process from end to end.
- Prior HRBP experience is a strong advantage; you understand how to partner with business leaders, not just execute processes.
- Experience managing or mentoring junior HR team members.
- Solid working knowledge of UAE employment law; exposure to KSA and Oman is a plus.
- Strong operational rigour — you care about the details and take pride in things running well.
- Confident communicator with the presence to engage employees and challenge leaders where needed.
- Comfortable working in a fast paced, regulated fintech environment.
Nice to Have
- Experience in financial services or a DFSA/FSRA/SAMA regulated environment.
- Familiarity with HRIS platforms and payroll tools used in the GCC.
- A sense of humour and a high emotional quotient.
What We Offer
- A high impact role with genuine ownership of the people function across three markets.
- A collaborative, international team with a strong mission — democratising access to finance for SMEs.
- Competitive compensation package including performance linked bonus.
- Flexible working environment based in Dubai.
