What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead HR strategy, workforce management, payroll, recruitment, employee relations, and compliant operations in a high-pressure environment.

I've led HR operations at HLC Services Solution, Tsebo Solutions Group, and Bidvest Group on Eskom's Kusile Power Project, overseeing labour-law compliance, industrial-relations reporting, payroll, recruitment, and employee relations.

Across more than 10 years in HR leadership and a career spanning mining, energy, banking, and public-sector organisations, I've managed workforce planning, compensation benchmarking, training interventions, dispute resolution, and HR systems. At BHP Billiton Energy Coal SA, I achieved 100% permanent mine operator employment, helping improve safety and morale.
