United Arab EmiratesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a senior Human Resources professional with 14+ years of experience across HR services, talent acquisition support, and human-capital operations in the UAE and beyond. Since Oct 2024 at M42 (Mubadala Health), I’ve led onboarding for 20+ assets across the UAE & Bahrain, managing new hires and transfers while partnering closely with asset stakeholders to ensure a smooth employee and candidate experience.
Previously at Johnson & Johnson (AMET, HR Services), I managed the employee life cycle across Pharma, Medical Devices & Consumer and supported regional onboarding in close collaboration with Talent Acquisition. I helped launch and optimize global HR services (including Workday launch and Ask Global Services), implemented HR MIS to improve HRBP/Shared Services productivity, and reduced legal risks through in-depth knowledge of day-to-day legal requirements and regular partnership with Employee & Labor Relations. I bring a practical, tech-enabled, compliance-first approach to workforce strategy, HR transformation, and organization culture.
