Human Resources Manager required in Johannesburg. A fast-moving ICT company with a lean, agile structure and a serious commitment to doing things right, is looking for an HR Manager who is ready to own the function completely. With roughly 35 staff, a strong process culture, ISO certification and a clear growth trajectory, this business moves at pace and expects its people to match that energy. This is not a role for someone who waits to be told what to do. The HR Manager who walks through the door will take full accountability for the entire HR function, lead an HR Assistant, and serve as a trusted advisor to senior management on all things people-related. The business has solid foundations in place, clear policies, SharePoint-based documentation, and a compliance-conscious culture, and now needs someone with the expertise, confidence and drive to take everything to the next level. If you are someone who spots a labour risk before it becomes a problem, who can hold a firm line in a disciplinary process, who understands that great HR is both strategically sound and practically useful, and who gets genuinely energised by building something meaningful, this one is worth reading carefully.
