Key Competencies
- Flexible & adaptable- comfortable switching between priorities as the Asst Head of HR's needs shift

What This Role Is Not
Strategy, target-setting, and final decisions on org design, hiring plans, performance management design, and development programs remain with the Asst Head of HR.
