Job Highlights

• Executive Access: Fast-track your career with direct mentorship from the Head of Administration & Human Resource. You will be at the center of the "Engine Room," learning the strategic blueprint of the business.
• High-Impact Hybrid Role: A unique blend of 60% operational excellence (HR/Admin) and 40% strategic growth (IT/Sales Support/Partnerships).
• Strong Growth: Join a high-caliber, young, and creative team in a company with an aggressive, positive growth trajectory.

Job Summary

We are looking for a highly capable Assistant to the Head of Administration & Human Resources. This role is designed for a "Force Multiplier"-someone who can take full ownership of the day-to-day business foundations while proactively building systems for the future.

You will be the Head of Administration & HR's right hand. One moment you will be ensuring HR compliance and payroll are perfect (The Steward); the next, you will be researching IT infrastructure or coordinating revenue-driving partnerships as a support to the sales team (The Pioneer). We need someone who is too experienced to need hand-holding, but hungry enough to dive into the "grit" of a fast-growing business.

Job Description (What You Will Build & Manage)

1. HR & Compliance Architecture (60% Focus)

• Full-Spectrum HR: Manage recruitment, payroll administration, CPF/IRAS submissions, and ensure strict compliance with Singapore Labour Laws.
• Process Engineering: Take messy or manual workflows and turn them into simple, bulletproof Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
• Office Governance: Oversee office administration, including vendor management, facility upkeep, and administrative budgets.
• Employee Experience: Drive culture through wellness initiatives, staff engagement, and performance appraisal coordination.

2. Executive Strategic Support & IT (40% Focus)

• IT & Systems Ownership: Act as the lead for internal tech projects. You will compare vendors, oversee firewall setups, and manage the overhaul of internal data storage systems.
• Sales & Partnership Liaison: Assist the Head in coordinating strategic partnerships and initiatives that allow Sales Team & your manager to drive company revenue.
• Product Expertise: Learn the specifications of our financial products (Property Financing/Factoring) to support sales execution and training.
• Executive Efficiency: Act as a "Strategic PA"-executing research, coordinating high-level meetings, and managing major projects with minimal direction.

Qualifications (The "Steward-Pioneer" Profile)

• Experience: 3-5 years of progressive experience in HR, Admin, or Business Operations. Experience in a fast-paced corporate environment or startup is highly preferred.
• HR Knowledge: Strong understanding of Singapore labour laws and HRIS systems. While we have support from Head of HRs, you must ultimately be able to handle HR independently.
• Technical Savvy: You are a "problem solver" with technology. You can lead an IT vendor search, understand basic network security (firewalls), and implement new digital tools.
• Business Acumen: Good with numbers; able to understand financial concepts and provide reports for management.
• The Mindset: A "Go-Getter" who is proactive. You don't wait for instructions for every step; you find the solution and bring it to the Head.
• Education: Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Studies, or equivalent.

Where are we?

• Ideal Location: Located within The Plaza (Bugis area).
• Accessibility: 5 mins walk to Bugis MRT Station.
• Perks: Surrounded by Arab Street's food and shopping; No CBD charges.

Additional Information

• Career Level: First-line management / Executive Assistant Track
• Qualification: Diploma / Bachelor's Degree
• Years of Experience: 3-5 years in a fast-paced industry
• Job Type: Full-Time, 5-day work week
