About our client:

Our client is a highly successful and purpose-driven group with a global shared services hub based in Cape Town. They are far more than a travel company; they act as a vital platform connecting world-class hospitality with large-scale environmental impact across Africa’s most iconic wilderness areas. The organization prides itself on a culture of continuous improvement and ethical behaviour, where the mission is to ensure that natural ecosystems and local communities thrive together.

You will join a collaborative, friendly team that avoids rigid hierarchies and values individual contribution. While they "think big" and move fast to protect vulnerable landscapes, they are deeply employee-centric, offering unusually generous benefits and a genuine commitment to work/life balance. This is an opportunity to bring your expertise to a stable yet growing organization where profit meets a profound sense of purpose.

• Provide daily HR support, manage employee records and documentation, and ensure compliance with legal and policy requirements.

• Serve as the first point of contact for staff queries, support engagement initiatives, wellness programmes, and internal communications.

• Coordinate employee exit processes, prepare final documentation, and assist with HR reporting and compliance submissions.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of HR processes and overall employee experience.
• Assist HRBPs in executing HR projects and strategic initiatives across both entities.

What our client is looking for:

• A relevant tertiary degree would be beneficial (Human Resources, Business Administration, etc.)
• Minimum 2 years of experience in a generalist HR role.
• Strong knowledge of HR best practices, labour law, and compliance.
• Experience with multiple entities/business units and HRIS platforms (Recruitee, Lattice) is advantageous.
