Job description

Jora Malaysia will close on 9th September 2026. Thank you for being with us, we are cheering you on as you continue your career journey.

We’re not just in the automotive business — we’re in the people business. Every great car journey starts with trust, and every great workplace starts with the right people. That’s why we’re looking for a Senior HR / Assistant / Executive who can fuel our growth by taking care of what truly matters: our team.

Why This Role Matters

This isn’t a “sit-behind-the-desk-and-check-boxes” HR role. You’ll be hands‑on, people‑first, and impact‑driven — shaping how our employees experience from the moment they walk in, to every milestone in their career. Think of yourself as the co‑pilot of our culture, making sure our people feel supported, empowered, and inspired.

What You’ll Be Doing (Your Mission)

People & Culture

Be the go-to person for employees — a problem solver, a listener, and sometimes even the office peacemaker.

Handle employee relations and conflicts with empathy, fairness, and a solutions‑first mindset.

Spark engagement through creative programs that make work feel rewarding.

HR Foundations

Keep our HR policies sharp, clear, and aligned with both the law and our values.

Maintain up‑to‑date employee documentation with precision.

Rewards & Recognition

Ensure payroll and benefits run like a well‑tuned engine.

Contribute to benchmarking and fair compensation structures.

Growth & Development

Run onboarding experiences that make every new hire feel like they belong from Day

Identify training needs and coordinate programs that actually make people better at what they do (not just check a box).

Performance & Progress

Guide managers through feedback, goal‑setting, and performance reviews that really matter.

Support succession planning and talent retention — because great people deserve a future here.

What We’re Looking For

3+ years of progressive HR Generalist experience, including at least 1 years at a senior or leadership level.

Solid knowledge of Malaysian labour laws (and the wisdom to apply them fairly).

Proven experience in employee relations, compliance, and performance management.

HRIS proficiency — you know your way around systems and data.

Excellent communication, problem‑solving, and conflict‑resolution skills.

Why Join Us?

Because we’re not just another automotive company — we’re building a future of trust, growth, and success.

You’ll have the autonomy to shape HR the way you believe it should be done. You’ll be part of a culture that values respect, collaboration, and bold ideas.

If you’re ready to take the wheel of HR and make a real impact, this is your chance.
