Hi all,
I am about to finish my CIPD level 5 and worked as an HR generalist for four years in the public sector.
I have recently started an exciting new role as an HR Officer for a SME property development company. They currently employ up to 50 employees, job roles vary from Customer Service agents to Project Managers. They were a Chinese company originally so they currently employ international employees but have a diverse background.
They currently have an Employee Handbook, very little guidance and basic HR databases (excel). They want to transition from Excel to an HR system, they want to create policies, procedures and guidance. They also want me to improve sickness, performance and annual leave management. They are currently is a Legal Adviser there and they have been using an HR Consultant, the Managing Director has had a Personal Assistant doing the HR administrative tasks, however, English isn't their first language.
Anyone got any ideas as to where or what I should do first? Or can share some advice?
Kind regards,
Clarke Ward
