    Your role will encompass:

    HR Project Management - managing all HR activities related to staff assigned to projects, including performance management, employee relations, and any issues arising.

    Staffing and resource planning - working closely with project managers to understand resource needs and develop staffing plans, ensuring appropriate skills and competencies are available for project success.

    Facilitate the deployment of staff to project sites, handling logistics, immigration and work permit requirements, and other related issues such as remuneration packages and payroll currencies.

    Employee Relations and issue resolution: guidance and support to project staff on HR policies, procedures, and practices, ensuring high employee satisfaction and engagement.

    Addressing and resolving complex employee relations issues, including grievances and disciplinary matters, in compliance with local labour laws and project requirements

    International HR Operations:

    Ensuring accurate and timely processing of payroll, benefits administration, and other HR transactions, collaborating with payroll, Employer of Record and global HR operations teams.

    Staying updated on local labour laws, compliance requirements, and cultural norms to ensure HR practices are aligned with local regulations and sensitivities.


    Donor Compliance:
    Ensure HR practices comply with donor requirements, reporting obligations, and ethical standards. Manage the donor-client relationship as this pertains to all HR-related activities

    Requirements
    Genesis consultants carry a balanced combination of powerful intellect, strong technical skills, and a consulting character to match.

    Successful candidates for roles at Genesis:
    Are passionate, self-motivated and energetic problem-solvers
    Value integrity and exhibit ethical behaviour
    Are analytical thinkers and fast learners with an excellent academic record

    A successful candidate will have a drive to create impact and a strong background in international HR operations. You have a minimum of 8 years of hands-on experience.

    You are likely to have:
    Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, or a related field. Master's degree is a plus.
    Extensive experience (8+ years) in HR management, with specific exposure to project-based staffing and international HR operations.
    Strong understanding of the projects environment, including large donor-funded programs and the associated compliance requirements.
    Experience working with donors such as US AID, Mastercard Foundation, Gates Foundation, and others is highly desirable.

    Solid knowledge of local labour laws and HR practices across Africa, including experience managing complex HR situations in diverse cultural settings.

    Experience working with an Employer of Record.
    Excellent problem-solving and conflict-resolution skills, with the ability to navigate complex employee relations issues.
    Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build effective relationships with stakeholders at all levels.
    Ability to work autonomously and handle multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.
    High level of discretion and professionalism when working with sensitive and confidential information.
    Fluency in English is required, and proficiency in other languages commonly used in Africa is a plus
