Own key people metrics: attrition, engagement, offer conversion, and performance distribution. What We’re Looking For 5–10 years of HR experience in high-performance or multi-jurisdictional environments. Track record of improving HR systems — not just maintaining them. Strong recruitment skills across technical and business functions. Experience managing HR compliance across India, UAE, or similar markets. Strategic mindset with operational rigour — able to move fast without dropping quality. Why Join 39k? Join a profitable, global firm operating at the cutting edge of crypto trading.
