What You Will Own

Talent Acquisition, your primary mandate

• Full-cycle hiring for D365 CE, Power Platform, .NET and AI or Copilot roles, from a sharp brief through sourcing, screening, panel coordination and a closed offer. Quality of hire is the measure, not volume.
• A living pipeline on Naukri, LinkedIn and referrals, plus a vendor network of consultancies, staffing partners and background verification providers that you select, negotiate with and hold to their SLAs.
• The candidate experience from first message to first day. You will tell the Powercret story with conviction and lead offer conversations to outcomes that work for both sides.
• The last mile. Counter-offers, notice period slippage and drop-offs are yours to anticipate and manage, so that an accepted offer becomes a joined employee.

People and Culture

• Being the person the team trusts with a concern, and the one who resolves it early, fairly and on record before it reaches the CEO.
• Engagement, recognition and learning initiatives that give people a reason to stay and to bring their friends.
• Reading the room. Regular pulse conversations that surface attrition risk while there is still time to act on it.
• A disciplinary process that is consistent and humane, from a first conversation through to separation where it is warranted.

Performance and Growth

• The appraisal calendar, KRA and KPI frameworks, and goal-setting conversations that give every consultant a clear picture of what good looks like.
• Working alongside team leads on reviews, career conversations and retention planning, and following through until every review is closed.
• Calibration and ratings-to-increment mapping that people experience as fair, and improvement plans that reach a clear outcome.

People Operations and Payroll

• Onboarding that gets a new hire project-ready inside 30 days, with identity, assets and system access waiting for them on day one.
• Attendance, leave, monthly payroll inputs, reimbursements, tax declarations and revision cycles in Keka, run cleanly every month.
• Employee master data, personnel records, letter templates and a policy library that stays current as the company grows.
• HR MIS to leadership on headcount, attrition, cost per hire and time to fill, and a respectful, complete exit process when someone moves on.

Compliance and Workplace

• Statutory compliance across PF, ESI, gratuity, professional tax, Shops & Establishments and POSH, with registers that are always audit ready.
• Spotting the gaps that come with growth, in policies, headcount planning and workspace, and closing them before they become blockers.
• Office administration and asset procurement, from laptops and peripherals to the asset register, so the workplace keeps pace with the team.

What You Bring

• 5 to 8 years in HR, with at least 3 years inside an IT services or consulting firm where you were close to the hiring problem.
• A track record of closing senior technical candidates in competitive markets. You can talk about specific hires you fought for and won.
• Experience managing recruitment vendors and HR service providers, including the commercial negotiation that comes with it.
• Working command of Indian labour law, statutory compliance and payroll processing. You know what has to be filed and when.
• Hands-on experience administering an HRMS. We run on Keka; strong experience with Zoho People, Darwinbox or similar transfers well.
• An MBA in HR or an equivalent post-graduate qualification.
• Fluent written and spoken English for regular conversation with Australian leadership, and the composure to hold a difficult one, knowing when to escalate and when to resolve it yourself.

What Sets You Apart

• You have hired for the Microsoft stack before and know where Dynamics 365, Power Platform and Azure talent actually lives.
• You have scaled an HR function through a headcount doubling and know which processes break first.
• You are already using AI-assisted recruitment and HR tooling and have opinions about what works.
