Group Human Resource Manager delivering talent, performance, and compliant people operations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a dynamic Human Resources professional with 6+ years delivering strategic HR support across diverse industries, with proven expertise in talent acquisition, performance management, L&D, and employee relations. I’m recognized for strong problem-solving, attention to detail, and leadership focused on building a positive work environment.
In my current role as Group Human Resource Manager (UK & Nigeria), I develop and implement HR policies (including RACI frameworks and recruitment/onboarding procedures) and oversee end-to-end selection for Nigeria operations. I also manage employee relations across regions, resolve workplace conflicts in line with labour laws, and maintain compliant administrative documentation for audits and CQC inspection needs.
Previously at Repton Group of Nigeria, I led HR strategy aligned to group objectives—supervising recruitment, onboarding, talent management, payroll, appraisal cycles, and KPI development. I designed and executed group-wide training programs with ROI evaluation, built employee engagement and culture initiatives, and managed vendor relationships while maintaining workforce analytics and HR dashboards.
Earlier, as a Human Resource Business Partner at Lifemate Furniture, I ensured legal compliance, handled end-to-end recruitment and exit processes, and supported investigations and disciplinary actions. I reduced employee turnover by 20% and improved retention by 10%, while overseeing HR operations across multiple branches and using HR metrics to recommend effective training.
