What I'm looking for
I’m an HR & Admin Manager with 22+ years of experience across Oil & Gas, construction, automobiles, and office automation—currently leading HR & admin at ARM Automobiles. I’m a SAP R/3 (Human Capital Management) consultant certified by CDAC Noida, with specialized training in SAP R/3 (HR) modules.
In my current role, I maintain employee records, manage attendance & leave, oversee recruitment and onboarding, and handle documentation through exit formalities. I also lead vendor management and facility/admin functions, manage HRIS, and ensure timely payroll disbursement in compliance with statutory norms.
Across prior roles (including Middle East recruitment and Gulf operations), I’ve owned visa processing, offer/contract documentation, candidate sourcing and screening, and coordination with overseas clients. I focus on streamlining HR processes to build a productive, inclusive workplace—while handling grievances, site workforce engagement, and MIS/reporting for management review.
