What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead people strategy and HR transformation across diverse, fast-paced businesses, building employee-friendly cultures while improving talent, workforce capability, operational efficiency, compliance, and measurable business outcomes.

I lead Human Capital Business Partnering for Rivoli Group across the UAE, Oman, Qatar, and Bahrain, driving people operations, restructuring, recruitment, payroll, employee relations, and legal HR policies.

Across luxury retail, technology, healthcare, FMCG, manufacturing, hospitality, and e-publishing, I've built HR strategies that improve engagement, talent retention, workforce capability, and business growth. My work has delivered over USD 1 million in savings at Rivoli and over USD 237,000 at TAHPI.

I use HRIS and analytics—including SuccessFactors, SAP ERP, and Oracle NetSuite—to connect KPIs, skill gaps, compensation, succession planning, and development programs. I value employee-friendly cultures, strong labor-law compliance, and practical change management across diverse markets.
