Human Resources Manager

We're partnering with a leading international oilfield services organization in Oman to find their next HR Manager
, joining the in‑country leadership team.

The HR Manager will serve as the principal architect of the organization’s people agenda in‑country, joining its senior leadership team. This is not a transactional HR role — it demands a hands‑on, credible leader capable of building a high‑performance culture, developing a sizeable HR team, and ensuring the organization is resourced and supported to meet the demands of a large, complex operational environment.

• Partnering with the Country Director and senior leadership to develop and deliver the in‑country people strategy
• Acting as a trusted HR advisor to business and operational leaders, championing a positive, high‑performance culture
• Leading, developing, and inspiring a sizeable team of HR professionals
• Overseeing talent acquisition, onboarding, performance management, and employee relations
• Ensuring HR policies and practices remain aligned with Omani employment legislation and company standards
• Managing workforce planning to ensure the organization is resourced effectively to meet operational demands
• Driving succession planning, learning and development, and career progression frameworks
• Leading employee engagement initiatives and supporting the organization’s wellbeing agenda

• 14–17 years of progressive HR experience, including significant time in a senior HR management role
• Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related discipline
• A background in oil and gas is essential, ideally with a major international oilfield services company
• Proven experience leading and managing HR teams within a large, operationally complex organization
• A strong generalist HR profile across multiple disciplines, rather than narrow specialism
• Sound knowledge of Omani labour law and HR best practice
