Employee Relations Specialist

Employee Relations Specialist

An infrastructure contractor running projects across western India, hiring a dedicated employee-relations specialist for its expanding site workforce

Location: Remote (India)

The context

This contractor runs multiple active infrastructure projects across western India and has relied on site engineers and a thin corporate HR team to handle workplace disputes and grievances as they come up. As headcount on sites grows, that arrangement is not holding, and the company has partnered with Flexiple to bring in a specialist who can own employee relations properly across its project sites and head office.

What the role covers

• Investigate and resolve grievances raised by site and corporate staff
• Advise project managers and site supervisors on handling disciplinary matters
• Maintain consistent, well-documented case files and resolution records
• Interpret HR policy and labour-law requirements for site-specific situations
• Track recurring issues across sites and flag patterns to HR leadership
• Support exit interviews and separation cases where relations issues are involved

What we expect you to bring

• 3 to 8 years in employee relations, HR generalist, or industrial relations work
• Solid grounding in Indian labour law, particularly as it applies to contract and site labour
• Comfort travelling periodically to project sites when a case needs it
• Calm, fair judgement when handling disputes between employees and supervisors

Useful extras

• Prior employee-relations experience in construction, infrastructure, or manufacturing
• Exposure to unionised or blue-collar workforces
• A postgraduate qualification in HR, labour law, or industrial relations

Why take this on

• Real ownership of employee relations across a multi-site infrastructure business, not a shared mandate
• Direct exposure to project leadership and site operations, not just a desk-bound HR seat
• A role built specifically because the company decided this function needed a dedicated owner
• One application keeps you in the running for this and other matched roles Flexiple is filling

Selection process

HR Screening, a case-study Assignment, a Hiring Manager Round, and a Leadership Round with HR and operations leadership before a final decision.
