The posting

We are looking for a hands-on HR Assistant Manager to support the HR Manager in running the full HR function for our growing, largely young workforce based in Colombo.

Strong knowledge of HR processes across the full employee lifecycle: recruitment, onboarding, performance management and employee relations. Working knowledge of Sri Lankan employment legislation and HR compliance. Experience handling disciplinary matters, grievances and sensitive employee issues. Confident holding managers and employees accountable when company standards are not being met. Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Strong organisational and documentation skills. Ability to manage confidential and sensitive information professionally. Strong decision-making and problem-solving skills. Comfortable working in a fast-paced and growing business. Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities.

Benefits

Monthly salary: LKR 220,000 - 300,000 (market-related, based on experience)

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
