Head of IR & GA (East Java)

About the Role

We are proud to be partnering exclusively with a leading local conglomerate business chain in Indonesia as they look to bring greater structure and leadership to their corporate functions. With an extensive nationwide store network and manufacturing operations across three sites, they are seeking a Head of IR & GA— a newly created leadership role that will oversee Industrial Relations, General Affairs, and Corporate Communications under one roof.


This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives on bringing order to complexity and can move at the pace the business demands.

What You Will Need

• 8–12 years of experience across Corporate Affairs, General Affairs, or a combination of related functions — F&B, retail, or high-volume operations experience is a strong advantage
• Proven experience building or formalising asset management systems — from coding and categorisation through to transfer tracking and lifecycle reporting
• Strong working knowledge of General Affairs operations, including facilities, vendor management, and cross-site coordination
• Experience overseeing or contributing to corporate communications and social media governance — you understand how tone, consistency, and culture show up online
• A hands-on, execution-first mindset — you are energised by building practical systems that work, not by producing frameworks that sit on shelves
• The ability to lead and develop a team of managers across IR, GA, and CorpComm — you align people to priorities and follow through
• Strong interpersonal and stakeholder management skills — you work well with owners, operators, and frontline teams alike
• A collaborative, open-minded, and approachable leadership style — Gen Z-friendly in the way you communicate and manage
• Maximum age 45, with the energy and adaptability to match the pace of a scaling, owner-led business
• Willing to be based in East Java or relocate as required by the business

What You Will Do

• General Affairs & Asset Management — Build and implement a structured asset management system from the ground up: asset coding, purchase date tracking, and transfer/movement history. Roll this out first at the corporate level, then extend to manufacturing facilities across three sites in Java
• Internal Relations — Ensure reporting lines are clear, internal communication flows are functioning, and people across the organisation are informed and aligned — particularly as the business continues to scale
• Corporate Communications & Social Media — Oversee the company's social media culture and ensure communications across channels are consistent, on-brand, and reflective of the company's identity and values
• Lead and develop a team of managers across IR, GA, and Corporate Communications — setting clear priorities, tracking delivery, and building capability within the team
• Work closely with ownership and senior leadership to translate business priorities into executable 3–6 month plans across all three functions
• Identify and close operational gaps in GA and CorpComm that have grown as the business has scaled — bringing structure without overcomplicating what needs to stay lean and fast
• Establish basic reporting and visibility across asset movements, communications activities, and internal relations matters
