Job description

About MBK Global

MBK Global is a Qatar-headquartered technology and transformation platform operating at the intersection of energy, advanced engineering, and Industry 4.0.

We are not a single-product company.

We are an ecosystem orchestrator.

Through a growing portfolio of ventures and delivery entities — including digital.enterprises — MBK Global integrates best-in-class technologies into governed, deployable, and scalable operating models for the energy sector. Our differentiation lies not only in what we build, but in how well and how reliably we execute.

People and talent are therefore core execution capabilities, not support functions.

Role Overview

The HR Manager is a foundational internal role responsible for building and operating MBK Globals talent acquisition and people operations capability across the holding company, ventures, and project teams.

This is not corporate HR.

It is a hands-on, execution-focused role combining recruitment, people operations, and on-the-ground coordination in a CXO-led organisation.

The role operates with strong coordination and escalation responsibility, working closely with CXOs to ensure alignment, discipline, and execution quality across teams.

Operating Context

  • MBK Global operates with CXO-led governance and disciplined execution.
  • Leadership is regularly present in Pakistan, with active engagement across teams.
  • The HR Manager ensures that standards, priorities, and ways of working are consistently applied across ventures and projects, particularly during periods of rapid growth or delivery intensity.

Key Responsibilities

Talent Acquisition (Immediate Focus)

  • Own end-to-end recruitment across :
  • Pakistan (Karachi-based engineering, product, data, design, operations)

  • Qatar (select senior and client-critical roles)
  • Venture- and project-based teams as activated
  • Translate business and delivery needs into clear, realistic role definitions
  • Source, screen, interview, and close candidates with speed, judgement, and quality
  • Build and maintain :
  • warm talent pipelines,
  • venture-specific benches,
  • trusted specialist networks
  • Ensure CXOs and senior leaders engage only with high-quality, high-signal candidates
  • People Operations & HR Foundations

  • Draft and maintain :
  • employment contracts (Pakistan & Qatar),
  • project-based or fixed-term arrangements,
  • NDAs and IP assignment clauses (critical for app-building and IP-heavy work)
  • Own onboarding and offboarding :
  • Day-1 readiness
  • 30-60-90-day plans
  • clean exits aligned to project cadence
  • Maintain accurate employee and contractor records using Dynamics365BC
  • Manage probation, confirmations, and exits professionally
  • Coordinate payroll inputs and core HR administration
  • Performance, Culture & Accountability

  • Support implementation of :
  • clear role expectations,
  • delivery-oriented objectives,
  • regular feedback and performance conversations
  • Support managers in :
  • addressing underperformance early,
  • managing delivery pressure without burnout
  • Uphold meritocracy and professional standards across teams, ventures, and projects
  • Coordination & Escalation (Pakistan)

  • Act as a first point of coordination for people-related and team-level matters in Pakistan.
  • Surface risks, frictions, or conduct issues early and factually.
  • Coordinate with Operations, IT, and Finance to resolve issues efficiently.
  • Escalate matters to CXOs with clear context, options, and recommendations.
  • Required Profile

    Experience & Background

  • 7–12 years of experience in HR, talent acquisition, or people operations
  • Strong hands-on recruitment experience in Pakistan
  • Experience supporting :
  • start-ups or scale-ups,
  • technology / product / delivery organisations,
  • venture- or project-based teams
  • Exposure to international hiring (Qatar / GCC) is a strong advantage
  • Skills & Capabilities

  • Strong judgement in assessing talent and role fit
  • Structured interviewer; clear communicator
  • Comfortable hiring for speed, accountability, and delivery intensity
  • Strong operational discipline and attention to detail
  • Strong working knowledge of HR systems and HR data models, including experience designing, implementing, or operating HRIS / people systems
  • Experience with Microsoft-based platforms is strongly preferred, including Dynamics 365 Business Central or adjacent Microsoft ecosystem tools, with an emphasis on clean data, controlled workflows, and scalable design
  • Able to operate calmly in fast-moving, high-pressure environments
  • Personal Attributes

  • High integrity and confidentiality
  • Low ego, high ownership
  • Comfortable coordinating peers and senior stakeholders
  • Bias for action and follow-through
  • Sound judgement in ambiguous situations
  • What Success Looks Like

  • Key venture and project roles filled quickly and well
  • digital.enterprises delivery teams staffed immediately
  • Clean onboarding and offboarding aligned to delivery cadence
  • Predictable hiring rhythm across holding, ventures, and projects
  • CXOs spending less time firefighting people issues
  • Why This Role Is for You

    This role is for you if you :

  • enjoy building talent engines, not administering policies,
  • think in systems, workflows, and data, not ad-hoc processes,
  • can move fast while maintaining judgement and discipline,
  • are comfortable acting as a trusted coordinator
  • want to help build serious technology ventures — properly.
  • one well, this role becomes a multiplier across every MBK Global venture, while remaining grounded, professional, and execution-focused.
