HR & Administration Manager

Singapore | Data Centre / IDC

About the opportunity

Haron-Mackey Consulting is supporting a large Chinese-headquartered international group with the appointment of an HR & Administration Manager for its Singapore operation.

This is a broad, hands-on position for someone who enjoys taking ownership rather than working within a narrowly defined HR function. You will have responsibility for the day-to-day HR and administrative operation in Singapore while working closely with colleagues and stakeholders across Singapore and China.

The position combines HR operations, compliance, recruitment, HRBP support and office administration, making it particularly suitable for someone who has previously worked within a growing data centre or technology infrastructure environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage local HR policies, employment contracts and employee handbook requirements

• Ensure HR practices comply with Singapore employment legislation and MOM requirements

• Manage employee relations matters and provide day-to-day HR support

• Support organisational development, workforce planning and team building

Payroll, CPF & Employment Passes

• Coordinate monthly payroll and CPF contributions

• Manage annual IR8A/AIS reporting requirements

• Handle employment and dependant pass processes including EP, S Pass, DP and LTVP

• Work confidently with myMOM Portal and the COMPASS framework

Recruitment & Development

• Develop local and cross-border recruitment channels

• Support recruitment of key talent within the IDC/data centre business

• Coordinate onboarding, performance processes and employee training

• Support the integration of local and internationally assigned employees

Office & Administration

• Oversee day-to-day office operations

• Coordinate office premises, fixed assets and IT equipment

• Manage suppliers and associated costs

• Coordinate business travel, visas and important business visits

• Professional experience within the IDC/data centre sector

• Strong practical knowledge of Singapore employment regulations and HR compliance

• Professional fluency in Mandarin and English, as the role involves regular communication with stakeholders in both Singapore and China

• The ability to independently manage a broad HR and administrative workload

• Previous experience helping establish or develop a local office operation would be advantageous

• Availability for occasional short business trips within Southeast Asia

Candidates must already have the right to work in Singapore without employer sponsorship.
