Partner with global People & Culture team to roll out core programs (onboarding, performance, learning, engagement).
Support recruitment efforts, including job design, screening, offers, and onboarding of new hires in Saudi Arabia.
Champion our culture and values by organizing internal events, feedback loops, and wellness initiatives.
Maintain accurate employee records and ensure HR systems and processes are running smoothly.

Ownership, autonomy, and visibility — your work will directly influence business outcomes.
Exposure to world-class HR practices and tools across 26+ countries.
Flexible working model with a high-trust culture.
Market-competitive salary based on experience and contribution — with room to grow.
Compensation: SAR 18,000–22,000/month, plus performance-based growth opportunities.
