Saloni Sharma
@salonisharma7
I lead recruitment, employee relations, and HR operations across high-volume teams.
What I'm looking for
I've led people development and recruitment across multiple high-volume Starbucks UK sites, covering workforce planning, employee relations, performance management, and HR compliance.
I managed end-to-end recruitment and onboarding for more than 171 employees, while building training programmes that strengthened policy adherence and employee capability. My succession-planning work supported seven employees moving into management roles.
Previously, I managed full-lifecycle HR operations at Pillar Plus Pvt Ltd, including HRIS administration, policy support, performance documentation, employee records, and sensitive workplace concerns. I also recruited hospitality and event talent for House of Events.
I bring a fair, structured, and values-driven approach to employee support, documentation, and process improvement, using workforce data to inform retention and HR policy decisions.
