HR Manager (Healthcare / Hospital)

We are proud to be partnering exclusively with a fast-growing healthcare organization in Indonesia that is at an exciting and defining stage of its journey. As they continue to scale, they are searching for an HR Manager — a foundational hire who will build the people function from the ground up, working side by side with the CEO and CFO to shape the culture, systems, and people practices that will carry the business through its next phase of growth.

This is not a role for someone looking to maintain what already exists. There is no established playbook here — you will be writing it. It will be messy at times, but for the right person, it will be one of the most rewarding HR roles you will ever take on.

Our client needs an HR Manager who is genuinely passionate about healthcare and equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves in a startup environment. You will be working directly with the CEO and CFO, so the ability to operate as a true business partner — not just an HR executor — is essential.

• 5–7 years of HR experience, with at least some exposure to startup, early-stage, or high-growth environments — you know what it feels like to build structure where none exists and you are energised by it, not unsettled
• A genuine passion for the healthcare sector — you care about the mission, not just the function, and that shows in how you work
• The confidence and maturity to work directly with C-suite leaders — you can hold your own in a room with the CEO and CFO, bring data-driven perspectives, and push back when needed
• A builder's mindset — you are happiest when you are creating something new, whether that is a policy, a process, a hiring pipeline, or a culture initiative
• Strong command of the full HR spectrum — recruitment, compensation & benefits, performance management, employee relations, learning & development, and compliance
• Solid understanding of Indonesian labour law — you know the rules and can build frameworks that are both compliant and practical
• Comfort working with numbers — payroll reviews, HR reporting, headcount planning, and compensation modelling should feel natural to you
• Strong English proficiency, written and spoken — you are confident communicating across all levels of the organisation
• High discretion, emotional maturity, and the ability to handle sensitive matters with professionalism

What You Will Do

• Build the HR function from scratch — designing and implementing the foundational people processes, policies, and systems the organisation needs to scale responsibly
• Partner directly with the CEO and CFO on people strategy, organisational design, workforce planning, and culture — you are a key voice in shaping how this company grows
• Lead end-to-end recruitment — building pipelines, defining hiring standards, and ensuring the business attracts and retains the right people as it scales
• Design and implement a performance management framework fit for a fast-moving, high-growth environment
• Develop and roll out HR policies and procedures that are compliant with Indonesian labour law and practical enough to actually be followed
• Handle employee relations matters — disciplinary processes, grievances, and conflict resolution — with fairness, consistency, and care
• Oversee payroll review, HR reporting, and statutory submissions to ensure accuracy and compliance at all times
• Champion culture and employee experience — fostering an environment where people feel engaged, valued, and motivated to do their best work in a mission-driven organisation
• Build the HR team over time as the function grows alongside the business

Call for Action

This role is for someone who finds genuine satisfaction in building something from nothing — who sees the messiness of an early-stage people function not as a problem, but as an opportunity. If you have a passion for healthcare, a love for startup energy, and the skills to back it up, we would love to hear from you. Please send your updated CV to [email protected].
