• Exceptional communication, negotiation, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and strong relationships at all levels — from site teams to senior executives.
• A strategic thinker with a hands‑on mindset, able to translate business objectives into practical HR initiatives.
• Proven ability to manage complex employee‑relations matters, lead organizational change, and foster collaboration across diverse cultural environments.
