@smitsk
HR Manager with 10+ years streamlining HR ops, talent acquisition, payroll, and employee relations—moving into strategic HR analytics.
What I'm looking for
I’m a dynamic HR professional with 10+ years of experience across HR Operations, Talent Acquisition, Payroll Management, and Employee Relations. I consistently streamline HR processes, resolve employee grievances, and implement policies aligned with business goals—so teams can move faster with fewer people-management bottlenecks.
In my current role as Manager – HR & Admin at Gentech Engineering Services, I manage the end-to-end HR lifecycle, including recruitment, payroll, and day-to-day employee operations. I’ve improved hiring efficiency by streamlining recruitment processes, strengthened employee relations by addressing grievances, implemented compliant HR policies, and produced MIS reports for management decision-making.
Across prior leadership roles, I handled recruitment lifecycle work, led performance appraisal and increment cycles, maintained attendance/leave records and HR documentation, and ensured payroll accuracy with statutory compliance (PF/ESIC). I’m now actively enhancing my expertise in HR Analytics and AI-driven HR practices to transition into strategic HR roles—partnering with leadership on workforce planning, engagement, and retention.
