• Team Leadership & Executive Advisory: Lead and mentor the HR and Payroll team in person across sites, acting as a direct advisor to Management and Operations on all workforce matters. What We Are Looking For

• 3+ years leading high-volume / mass recruitment operations (proven track record managing 500+ hires simultaneously or consecutively).
• Strong working knowledge of Colombian Labor Law (shift rules, night/Sunday/holiday recargos, overtime, and prestaciones) and SG-SST implementation.
• Data-driven mindset: comfortable managing HR budgets, shift math, and operational HR KPIs.
