• Manage the offboarding process — exit documentation, clearance coordination, full and final settlement inputs, and real‑time HRMS updates
• Prepare and issue all HR letters — offer, confirmation, transfer, promotion, and exit — with accuracy and turnaround speed
• Coordinate background verification (BGV) with vendors and ensure timely, accurate completion for all new joiners

• Administer other employee benefits including shift allowances, weekend allowances, and any other applicable benefits programmes
• Serve as the first point of contact for employee benefit queries; resolve with speed and clarity; elevate complex cases appropriately
• Coordinate with benefits vendors — track SLAs, follow up on pending items, and flag performance issues to the Assistant Manager

HRIS & Data Management

• Ensure all employee data in Workday is accurate, up‑to‑date, and aligned with organisational standards always
• Prepare standard HR reports, MIS dashboards, and data extracts for the HR team and leadership — on time and in the right format
• Identify opportunities to improve data quality and reporting processes; flag automation or efficiency ideas to the Assistant Manager
• Maintain strict adherence to data privacy, confidentiality, and information security requirements

Employee Query Management

• Respond to employee queries on HR policies, processes, benefits, and documentation — promptly, accurately, and with a helpful tone
• Maintain a query log to track recurring themes and surface them to the HRBP or Assistant Manager for policy‑level intervention
