  • Willingness and excitement to build processes and policies from scratch, execute to the business and manage change across your teams and company; continuous improvement mindset to support service to the business and reach efficiency in your own team
  • Strong knowledge of applicable local employment laws and practices
  • Exceptional organizational skills, end-to-end thinking and a high level of ownership
