• Strong working knowledge of Saudi labor law and HR systems (GOSI, Qiwa, Muqeem, Mudad).
• Experience managing recruitment processes, including agency coordination and project-based hiring.
• Excellent multitasking and time management skills; able to prioritize in dynamic environments.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite; experience with HR software or ERPs is a plus.
• Excellent communication skills in English (Arabic is highly desirable).
• High level of integrity, professionalism, and discretion in handling confidential matters
