Managing Executive: Human Resources

Rewardsco is looking for an exceptional HR executive to help build the people capability required for our next phase of growth.

This is not a role focused on maintaining an existing HR function.

Reporting to the Managing Director: Rewardsco Sales, you will have the mandate to shape and build a people strategy and operating model capable of supporting a large, high-volume and growing business.

What we need you to deliver

• Build a people strategy and operating model that enables sustainable business growth.
• Create a workforce model that anticipates demand and delivers the right capability at the right time and cost.
• Build a scalable talent pipeline that can support rapid growth without compromising quality.
• Improve the journey from recruitment to productive performance, particularly speed to competency and early-life retention.
• Deliver measurable improvement in attrition, absenteeism, productivity and workforce cost.
• Build leadership capability, succession depth and internal mobility across the organisation.
• Strengthen the systems, technology, governance and people infrastructure required to operate effectively at scale.
• Turn people data into commercial insight that improves executive decision-making.
• Build and lead a high-performing HR function that is accountable for business outcomes, not HR activity.

Who we are looking for

A proven HR executive who has led at significant scale in a complex, high-volume environment.

You will bring strong commercial judgement, workforce planning and people analytics capability, deep employee relations experience, and a strong understanding of South African labour, transformation and skills development requirements.

Experience in BPO, contact centres, outsourced sales, retail, logistics or another high-volume environment will be highly relevant.

Most importantly, we are looking for evidence that you have built, transformed and improved organisations, not simply managed established HR functions.

What will set you apart

Your title and years of experience will get our attention.

What you built, what you changed and the measurable impact you delivered will determine whether you are right for this role.

If you have successfully built people capability at scale and want the mandate to do it again, we want to hear from you.

• Comprehensive Health and Wellness: Free access to Kaelo Health Medical Insurance, Financial Wellness Support, Mental Health Counselling and on-site Pharmacy with an in-house Nurse
• Top-Tier Resources and Amenities: Work with world-class technology, enjoy three in-house restaurants and take advantage of discounted grocery staples

If you’re looking for an opportunity where your ideas, leadership and commercial impact can directly shape the future of an organisation, Rewardsco offers the scale, challenge and platform to make that happen.
