## About

```text
At Huhtamaki Russia (now Scandipakk), I led HR for 700+ employees across two manufacturing sites with a team of four. I ran data-driven HR: tracked people metrics across all HR processes, analysing turnover by reason and tenure stage (probation, first year) to target retention measures — production turnover down 7% YoY (2024). I managed employee relations end-to-end with legal counsel: disciplinary and mutual-agreement terminations, a pandemic-period redundancy, and a contested misconduct dismissal upheld in court.

I led HR transformation after the 2022 separation from the global group: replaced Workday with TopFactor HCM integrated with 1C:ZUP and rebuilt policies and documentation. I ran full-cycle recruitment for corporate, specialist and production roles, introducing Huntflow ATS and cutting time-to-hire by 25%, and used recruitment chatbots extensively alongside the Huntflow ATS. I also designed a one-month onboarding programme.

At Seabourn Cruise Line, I recruited remotely for a five-ship fleet and sourced candidates from 30+ countries. Most recently, at The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, I led a multicultural team of up to 110 and turned engagement results into an action plan on recognition and career growth.

AI & automation: ChatGPT, Claude, recruitment chatbots, AI-assisted workflow automation (connectors, browser agents).
