HR Manager Duties

Hello, happy new year to you all !

I have been working in my company as a HR Officer in a sole-role looking after 110 employees for the past one year.  There is a regional HR Associate Director who i can turn to if i need support or guidance, otherwise it's just me for HR.

I provide advise to management, sit in the Quarterly Board Meeting to discuss HR in Qatar, follow the ever-changing new laws, update policies, create policies, work with local embassies, deal with grievance processes, termination, new hires, employment contracts and manage the L&D needs for the office while creating my own training programs for employees (and more!); sadly there is no budget yet for an administrator, so I need to complete all HR & L&D needs myself.

What i would like to know is, would you consider someone like this to be a HR Manager? I am working on my annual review and plan to ask for a title change but thought I would check with the wider community to see if the request is warranted, or not quite there yet!

Any advice / guidance is much appreciated.

All the best - Nicola

PS: I will commence my CIPD L3 or 5 (i'm still researching which one is best) this month!

    Personally I would be far less concerned about the title and far more concerned with the experience I was getting. Different people call roles different things but what will stand you in good stead is the actual tasks and responsibilities you are getting.

    The difference between HRM and HR Officer is just semantics.

    Your role would normally now be called a HRBP anyway.

    Best of luck.
