We are looking for an experienced, hands-on HR Manager to lead the generalist HR function for a retail operation based in Randburg. This is a role for someone who genuinely enjoys HR systems and processes as much as they enjoy working with people - someone who can troubleshoot a clocking system issue in the morning and handle an IR matter with the same confidence in the afternoon.
Key Responsibilities
Manage the full generalist HR function across the business, including recruitment support, onboarding, employee records, and offboarding.
Oversee and troubleshoot the clocking/time and attendance system, ensuring accurate data for payroll and reporting.
Manage payroll-related HR administration, working closely with payroll to ensure accuracy and timeous processing.
Administer and monitor leave management, ensuring policies are applied consistently and records are accurate.
Handle IR (Industrial Relations) management, including disciplinary processes, grievances, CCMA matters, and ensuring compliance with South African labour legislation.
Drive continuous improvement of HR processes and systems, identifying inefficiencies and implementing practical solutions.
Act as a trusted point of contact for employees and management, providing sound HR advice and support.
Build and maintain strong working relationships across all levels of the business, from shop floor to senior management.
Ensure HR policies, procedures, and practices are up to date, compliant, and consistently applied.
Support and champion an exceptional employee experience across the business.
Requirements
At least 5 years' experience in a generalist HR role, ideally within the retail industry.
Proven hands-on experience with clocking/time and attendance systems, payroll processes, leave management, and IR management.
Tech-savvy with a genuine interest in working with HR systems - this role requires someone who enjoys the systems side of HR, not just tolerates it.
Solid working knowledge of South African labour legislation (BCEA, LRA, EEA) and CCMA processes.
Relevant HR qualification (Diploma or Degree in Human Resources Management or related field) advantageous.
