Johannesburg - Gauteng - South Africa
Reporting to the CEO you will be responsible for managing and overseeing the function of human resources within the group. You will be required to act as the bridge between management and employees driving the overall functional aspects of HR resources.
HQ is based in Cape Town, however, the company will consider a Gauteng resident who does not want to relocate. The position requires extensive travel to the national factories based in Cape Town, West Coast, Johannesburg, Rustenburg and Durban
The main issue that you will be tasked with is setting a new structure for HR with representatives in each major site as well as the need to rebuild the HR value proposition. This will mean at least a few days in each site every month until further notice. I envisage at least 2 weeks a month of travel every month for an extended period.
