What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an HR role in Saudi Arabia's corporate or NGO sectors where I can apply payroll, compliance, recruitment, and expatriate administration experience.

I've managed end-to-end payroll, tax reconciliation, labor-law compliance, recruitment, and expatriate administration for Humanity & Inclusion in Lebanon. I maintained audit-ready personnel records, submitted Ministry of Finance declarations with zero penalties, and supported national and international staff.

Earlier at Whitesquare, I reduced time-to-fill by 20%, increased employee engagement and retention by 15%, and improved HR administrative efficiency by 25%. I'm eager to bring my HR operations and compliance experience to corporate or NGO roles in Saudi Arabia.
