About the Company
Our client is a well-established organisation undergoing significant workforce and remuneration transformation. With a strong mandate to optimise headcount and implement a data-driven salary review process, they require an experienced HR professional to drive execution over the next six months. This is a critical period of change, and they need someone who can step in, take ownership, and deliver.
About the Role
This is a hands-on role, not a strategic one—the roadmap is set, and now it’s about execution. Reporting to the CFO, you will be responsible for:
- Leading a redundancy program to optimise headcount while ensuring a smooth transition.
- Driving a salary review process, leveraging Mercer data to create a structured, analytical framework for remuneration decisions.
- Rationalising position descriptions, job classifications, and organisational structure using the SFIA framework.
- Managing change and educating the business on the new remuneration and workforce structure.
- Handling HR processes without an HRIS, meaning strong Excel skills are essential for reporting, tracking, and analysis.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-moving, high-accountability environment and isn’t afraid to get into the detail.

✅ An experienced HR professional
