HR Generalist

Role Title: HR Manager / Generalist (Noida) 

Reports To: Senior HR Manager, India (Gurugram) 

Brand / Function: ICG Medical India, Global HR Team 

Location: Noida, Uttar Pradesh (office based, 7.30 PM to 4.30 AM IST) 

Role Purpose:  
Our Noida office is an offshore centre of excellence of 110+ employees. Its Sales and Shared Services teams work US hours in support of our North American businesses. You will be the only Noida facing HR professional on site, so employees and managers will come to you first, and usually only to you. 
 
You will run day to day HR on your own: answering queries, resolving issues early, keeping records and payroll inputs accurate, and keeping the site compliant. You will be supported by the Senior HR Manager, India, who leads the India HR function from our Gurugram office and sets standards and priorities across India, whilst benefiting from working side by side with a NOAM facing HR Administrator. 

You will handle routine matters yourself. Serious disciplinary cases, dismissals, policy changes, and any legal or statutory risk are agreed with the Senior HR Manager before action is taken.
