Finstorm is recruiting on behalf of a client for a proactive and experienced HR Manager to manage day-to-day HR operations, with a strong focus on supporting and scaling a frontline retail workforce. As a specialist recruitment agency backed by the regional strength of HLB HAMT, Finstorm connects experienced HR professionals with organisations across the UAE that need hands-on, high-volume workforce management expertise. This is an excellent opportunity for an HR generalist who thrives in retail or similarly fast-paced operational environments and wants to take ownership of the full employee lifecycle.

In this role, you will manage recruitment, onboarding, and workforce planning for retail operations, and oversee attendance, shift scheduling, leave management, and overtime tracking through Roots HCM. You will coordinate payroll inputs, commission tracking, and monthly payroll processing, and support performance management, appraisals, and employee development initiatives. You will handle employee relations matters, grievances, and disciplinary processes, ensure compliance with UAE Labour Law and retail workforce regulations, and manage offboarding processes, final settlements, and HR reporting. Supporting HR system optimisation and digital HR initiatives will round out your day-to-day responsibilities.

The ideal candidate brings four to six years of HR experience, including at least two years in retail or high-volume workforce environments, with hands-on experience in Roots HCM across the Leave, Attendance, and Payroll modules. You have a strong understanding of UAE Labour Law and HR best practices, practical experience in payroll processing, attendance management, and commission structures, and excellent communication, organisational, and stakeholder management skills.
